Nah, that's the Keweenaw Peninsula way to the west. South of the Soo never had any mining, just lumbering.
Weren't they considering doing some surface mining over by Rudyard a few years ago?
I knew about near Marquette but I haven't heard about anything in the eastern UP, but I could be wrong. The western UP is an entirely different geological formation than the east. Marquette and west is granite while east of there is sandstone.
