Look Beneath the Surface

The raw materials in nearly everything we own come from mines. Most of the things we use every day at home, work, school or play are "mine-made." The minerals and metals that we extract from the earth are also inherently recyclable and can be re-used almost indefinitely in new products and applications. To get the whole scoop, go digging for "Hidden Treasures" or check out the posters below. Hope you have a rockin' good time.
