“The ore pass is probably my favorite of the bunch because it was really the first time there was real work happening on DUNE. The ore pass runs between the 4850 and 5000 feet below ground levels and needed to be mucked out in preparation for excavation. This is how the skips were loaded to haul rock.” Matthew Kapust, SURF
