Purdy Mica Mine

For anyone not familiar with this, it's a "must-see" at some point.  The Purdy mica mine is on A112A about 20 miles northwest of Mattawa.  Take a good flashlight if you want to go back into the mine, but there's lots to see within sight of the opening.  It's worth crawling through the small tunnel on the right just inside the entrance.

 

There's a good video on YouTube:  https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjN_aG0wITLAhWGpB4KHZiKAS4QtwIIITAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DNdb3ZD-_iBY&usg=AFQjCNEWHukbXgv1fzSucEmWtN2QwwwfUQ&sig2=cmK-9rTVfBJj-oqUesb4eg

Thanks for the pictures. No roof bolts or netting?

No, but we did find a dead bat on the snow.
