USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
The industrial heart of Minnesota’s Iron Range is laid bare in this mid-century survey, centered on the mining communities of Bovey, Coleraine, and Taconite. The landscape is defined by the massive operations of the Canisteo Mine, Holman Cliffs Mine, and Walker Mine, where deep excavations are flanked by extensive Mine Dumps and Tailings Ponds. These industrial features radically reshape the natural topography of the Mesabi Range, pushing right against the residential edges of the villages.
