  1. Ya, I couldnt believe it when I opened this thread and it was our barrel LOL. I wish I could take you two on a tour. It is pretty interesting up there. 2300 degree molten metal,flames, sparks, smoke. Kind of like a rock video on steroids LOL. Back in the day they used to give tours of our area plus the open pit mine. Now it is limited to corporate types and once a year they bring the school kids thru in buses as part of a safety program the company does in the local grade schools. I will try to find some pics to post up.

  2. That was actually headed to the copper smelter where I work LOL. It is the center section of an anode barrel. Molten copper is refined in it and then poured into 99.9% pure copper anodes that weigh about 800 pounds each. That thing is definately a beast.
