Google Earth Placemarkers™ for Mine & Rehabilitation Sites
Have you ever wondered what a mine site
looks like in the context of its environment? We have put together a
small selection of Google Earth Placemarkers™ to mine and rehabilitation
sites on this page and aim to expand this list over time. Why don't you
email us a Google Earth Placemarker™ pin-pointing the location of the
site you are working at? We will add it to our list for the world to
see (please state if you don't want your name and affiliation included).
We also have a page on abandoned mines.
|
|
We are also adding links to
Wikipedia entries for the sites below that enable you to study
individual mines more closely, because Wikipedia may contain many more
related links. |
 |
Did you know that
CMLR is actively
involved in rehabilitating many of the sites listed here? Find out more
about our research or remote
study degrees.
