Getting Lost in the Copper Corridor

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmailby feather

Can you guess where in the Copper Corridor this photo was taken? If you guessed Superior, then you would be right. This is the now unused smokestack at the Superior Smelter once operated by Magma Copper Company. The photo was taken by staff at Resolution Copper Mining from a helicopter allowing us a rare peek inside the stack. The Nugget has been taking our readers on a journey through the Copper Corridor, helping you to ‘Get Lost.’ We hope you continue to travel with us.Photo Courtesy Resolution Copper Mining
