STEEP ROCK IRON MINES

Steep Rock Iron Mines Ltd. : Steep Rock Lake, Ontario, 1974.

Many thanks to Rob Purdon of the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, who identified the location of these photos, previously mis-identified as Caland Ore. He said in part: " . . . . (the photos) are actually of the Hogarth and the Roberts Pits on the Steep Rock side. The water body on the right side of the images is the West Arm of Steep Rock Lake and the A-2 Headframe and dry are visible on the left side of Photo 3. "
