Description
Big Bend Landscape View by Charles Dobbs. This is a view from one of the ruins found at the Marsical Mine located in Big Bend National Park, Texas. The Mariscal Mine, also known as the Lindsey Mine and the Ellis Mine, was a source of cinnabar ore that was refined at the Texas site into mercury. The mine produced a total of 1400 flasks of mercury, each weighing 76 pounds (34 kg), accounting for almost a quarter of the mercury production in the United States between 1900 and 1943.
