Belmont Mine and Mill, NV

[Ray Dunakin]

These two videos from my recent trip to Nevada and the Mojave desert, feature the Belmont Mine and Mill of central Nevada. The mine is perched high on a mountainside, and the ore from the mine was transported via aerial tram to the mill, three miles away at the bottom of the canyon.

Once a bustling mine operation was left to slowly deteriorate. Interesting part of history and sad at the same time. Great job, Ray!
