Short video of Rooster Rock on Quirke Lake. A well known local land mark and the site of the former Stanrock Uranium mine.
Stanrock mine was one of 12 Uranium mines located around Elliot Lake, known as the Uranium Capital of the World during it's heyday. The last mines closed in the mid 1990s and all the mine sites rehabilitated to their original state. If you know where to look one can still find the concrete pads marking the heads of the mine shaft.
