Malakoff Diggings, in Nevada County, was the largest hydraulic mining operation in California. At the time of this 1875 photo by Carleton Watkins, the mine was in full operation with 7 giant water cannons working around the clock eroding mountains, to wash gold out of the gravel. The water and gravel effluvia from the operation caused floods in the Sacramental Valley and silted up San Francisco Bay. In an 1883-84 environmental protection lawsuit, Judge Lorenzo Sawyer declared hydraulic mining illegal

Base on Titan - Illustration - Titan 2121: Departing blimp - Astronauts on a mining base on the surface of Titan. 100 years from now space exploration may have evolved to space exploitation on some very exotic worlds. Could it be possible that some day a natural resource of extraordinary value could be found on a world 700 million miles away? a resource that would justify an unprecedented investment in an infrastructure capable of bringing these resources to market? This image suggests how a large - scale mining operation on the surface of Saturn's moon Titan might appear

Bingham Canyon Copper Mine - USA - Bingham Canyon Mine - Utah: The Bingham Canyon Mine is an open-pit copper mine located southwest of the city of Salt Lake City, Utah. With a width of 4 km and a depth of more than 800 m, it is one of the largest mines in the world. Mining began at the site in 1906. Image taken from the International Space Station (ISS) on 20 September 2007. The Bingham Canyon Mine, more commonly known as Kennecott Copper Mine among locals, is an open-pit mining operation extracting a large porphyry copper deposit southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah, in the Oquirrh Mountains. The mine is the largest man-made excavation in the world and is considered to have produced more copper than any other mine in history - more than 19 million tonnes. Astronaut photograph was acquired on September 20 2007 from the International Space Station (ISS)
