If you don‘t grow it, you have to mine it Ron Jung, mill supervisor at the Golden Giant Mine in Northern Ontario, has a sign above his desk that says, "If you don‘t grow it, you have to mine it." The words are a direct quote from his father, who was also a miner. "Think of any luxury," Ron told us. "Pens. Bedâ€" springs. Automobiles. All these things have one thing in common. They are prodâ€" ucts created from mined materials." The Golden Giant Mine, between Marathon and Wawa, is on the appropriâ€" ately named Yellow Brick Road between Marathon and Wawa off Highway 17, above Lake Superior. In the Golden Giant Mine there are very few large gold nuggets. Instead We‘ve been authorized to liquidate the inventory from a leading fashion retailer when they decided to change their target market! Ir. Miss Fashions£ LIQUIDATION ALERT! gold particles are scattered throughout the rocks. There are only about 10 milligrams of gold per ton of ore. Te extract the gold, oreâ€" laden rocks the size of busses are reduced down to granules the size and texture of chocolate pudding. At the final stage, when the gold is separated from any remaining ore, it is heatâ€" ed and poured into bricks. The mine produces one 30â€"kilogram gold brick per day. â€" â€" The Golden Giant has been open for 17 years. Minâ€" ing is a finite job. _ When the gold has been completely harvested, the mine will close. The Golden Giant Mine will shut down in four years. Graders, jeeps, trucks and machine parts that were used underground will remain in the mine shafts, buried forever.
