Humboldt Surface Mine, a joint venture of Cleveland Cliffs Iron Co. and Ford Motor Co., c. 1964. The Mine shipped ore from 1953 to 1972, the first years as fine particle concentrates and thereafter as pelletized concentrate produced by the pellet plant added at the right in the photo. This was the first integrated beneficiation-pelletizing plant in Michigan. Courtesy CNR Collection
