Negau nee Mine poised for higher output after cave-in recovery
Mining Journal reports Capt James Piper in charge says the Negaaunee mine is back in good condition after January cave-ins that killed ten men. Bulkheading and water removal reduced danger, timbers should last for years, and output could rise from about 900 to 1,400–1,800 tons daily with a full workforce. Lease transfer to Cleveland Cliffs next September.
