Top of Urquhart Shaft Headframe - Mount Isa Mines

I was chasing the sunset behind the mines, but didn't get the results I was after so a few other bits and pieces today. I cropped in a fair bit, bit grainy if you dive in deep.

"The Urquhart Shaft Headframe, which still sits hillside, is a community landmark and a symbol of Mount Isa Mines and is one of five Queensland European heritage listed assets originally built by the company" Glencore

@clifford It is mainly copper, sliver and lead here, still dirty hard work though.
@briaan Thanks. We have followed the mines around workwise, hubby did a stint at Broken Hill as well.
@onewing Thanks, was trying to get the definition on the spokes.
