Also, we had the opportunity of taking a train into the actual mine, which meant going right inside the mountain.
We learned so much about how the mining was done and the life of the miners. WOW! Their lives were very hard indeed. Many men died in the mountain, mining for copper. We also learned how they kept the light in the tunnels, so that they could see what they were doing. For example, in the very early days, they only had candles before more advanced technologies gave them things like headlamps to see by. Can you imagine how difficult it would be to work with the use of a single candle inside a mountain tunnel.
