Tells the story of the mining and manufacture of copper from the crude ore to the finished product. lots of footage of giant machines, some blasting.

Fascinating! I've been a student of western mining history ever since I grew up exploring the ruins of the old Treadwell gold mine complex near Juneau, AK. Our area had some of the largest hard rock gold mines of their eras and I've always wished I'd been able to see the mining process in action. Much of the mining techniques shown in this film are very similar to underground gold mining of those times. Thanks every so much for finding and posting this historic film.
Amazing that all those plants, machines & tools were all hand designed.
No Cad Cam, no simulations.
I suspect a lot of slide rule work and and a fair bit of "Try this, it outtta work."
To insure the safety of the workers, the management would occasionally cross their fingers or knock on wood.
hahahahahahaha this is as sad as it is funny
Got to enjoy seeing how well things were set up and run back then. Worked on a copper mine many years ago and it was heap leach process. Never want to work with acid ever again.
yep worked at a zinc plant with electrolysis and sulfuric acid. like you ive had enough acid lmao
@@skyportal nasty stuff. Seen first hand what it would do to the environment when the concentrate (ILS) channels would overflow into the surrounding bushland. Glad you're out of too.
"Waste material": the miners' definition of untouched natural landscape. 1:34
Amazing process. Green tree poles added into the melted copper! ? Thanks for the upload. I had not considered how patriotic copper mining could be.
What is called “reform gas” replaced the green poles. This is partially burned natural gas which is blown into the molten copper to remove the oxygen. Today at Freeport’s Miami Smelter, they steam for the same purpose
Use steam
sudbury canada had almost no trees left from this early copper process. they trained astronauts for the moon there!
Visionary video¡¡Today copper is vital in battery revolution:::Also copper is very important in energy transition towards 2050¡¡Copper moves money:information;;water and energy¡¡Chile has the major reserves of copper in earth¡¡Chile produces 31,9% mine copper yearly globally¡¡This video is amazing¡¡Thank you guys¡¡
i did watch this all .thank you . i did not know all of that .looks expensive.
Brilliant
My kin before me worked for Phelps Dodge. My dad up until recently hauled copper products from Arizona to Texas, though a lot of it is coming from Mexico and headed to TX for further processing.
Nowadays the El Paso refinery's basically in the middle of town.
So crazy they let them just light the dynamite at the holes rather than have one longer fuse far off
is this a mining facility where the chunks of copper were being drag by ice glacier movement? from the mining facilities to urban area 600 miles away?
Viet nam tx🇺🇸💪👍
Very difficult to hear... ☹☹☹
Volume very low. Great video otherwise.
Where is the GOLD from the Copper Ore ?..
Good thing these films are not widely shown today. If the bloggers saw this, all mining would have to be stopped immediately, and all previous products of mining would need to be taken out of service, and all people involved would need to be fired and have their publications pulled from production. Of course, you can't have a computer or a phone without copper, so I suppose they will have to find another way to spread their diseases.
