Photograph taken around 1926 of one of the two underground exploration shafts built by Noranda in 1925.
Three labourers, circa 1926-1927, digging a trench by the sweat of their brow. In the background, the smelting plant under construction.
One of the few shots of Noranda showing three chimneys rather than one, the old one having been replaced by the new one and then deconstructed.
Same shot, but slightly different. In this photo taken in the late 1940s, note the base of the new chimney, then under construction!
Interior view of the Noranda mine in the 1960s-1970s.
