Drumlummon Mine oldtimers explored the 29 miles of shafts
that were drilled, chipped and blasted into honeycomb maze -
that made Marysville and millionaires -


Miners left their mark up and down the mine shafts -
The No. 1 Shaft Station is a 30-by-60 foot wide room with
a 50 foot tall ceiling full of stopes.
The stopes were made when miners blasted upward so the ore
would fall down, making it more easily shipped out in ore cars.
