Norway, MI: Cyclops Mine

(Satellite, judging from the brown spots, trees don't like mine tailings.)

Remembering Bethlehem Mines posted three images with the comment: "Cyclops Mine, Norway, Michigan. Penn Iron Company.  Lifetime Production: 6,028 tons of iron ore in 1878."

About an hour ago, I researched Calumet, MI, and learned that it was surrounded by mines. This town also has several mines nearby. I believe these are iron ore mines. I found four mines on this topo. The railroad is the UP/C&NW.
