On the left is the auxiliary hoist house. The main hoist house is in the center, and the super heater, used to heat compressed air, is on the right. The small building was used for cleaning rope clips, and for toilet facilities. There is also a tar house, where tar was stored and kept warm. Originally each mine had its own tar storage, but it was eventually consolidated at the Diamond Mine. | Creator: Historic American Engineering Record | Source: Library of Congress | Rights: Contact the source for information about copyrights and usage.Download Original File
