Scope and content
Geological Survey photo. This mine opened just south of Stair Station on the CPR line near the south bank of the Saskatchewan River. The mine began shipping coal in 1883 to Winnipeg. This venture proved a loss due to poor quality. Pearce acquired this photograph to illustrate his "Historical Narrative" of development of the Canadian West. He collected photos as he wrote his narrative between 1917 and 1928.
