We return to Elliot Lake up in northern Ontario (my home town) to the abandoned mine of Bi Ore.
It is north of the city about an hour drive past the now torn down Uranium Mines. The bugs were bad so we had to cover up. To get to the mine is about a 20 minute walk to the lake the mine faces. Lot of old relics around and the old fireplace from the manages office I think. Some old machinery you can see that on a video previous to this one. We ventured to the beach and I checked to see the old entrance shaft to the mine which has been sealed last trip.
Surprised to see the shaft has been dug out after probably 40 yrs ago since buried up for safety. I think it should be opened but a locked steel gate installed as it has lots of history and great tourist attraction. Safety first as it is dangerous. We tried to find the mined cut on top of the mountain I seen back in the 1980s but was so dangerous of a climb and only the two of us way back in the bush. This our second attempt to find it but only get Busted again!!
It was an eventful day and was nice to feel the cool breeze come out of the old shaft after those many years. Maybe we be back again to try to get to the cut in the rock!!!!
