So I was pleased last week to visit another underground mining operation in Sudbury, but this time with a difference. I visit mining properties enough that I decided to spend a few bucks to buy my own coveralls. In Ontario the law dictates that all persons going underground must wear orange coveralls with reflective striping. Cool. So now I have my own coveralls and it saves time in not having to fart around at different mining properties getting outfitted every time.
Plus I have coveralls that fit me properly and they're easy to put on a take off.
Also, I use my own hardhat, which I wear turned around so it makes it easier to get photos when I hold the camera up to my face. That hardhat is from my early days working at the Texas Gulf Kidd Mine. And thanks to mining photographer James Hodgins for shooting the photo. We were both there because Premier Doug Ford was touring the mine.
