Scenic Attraction v. 4 X tor" y v ft View of the Utah Copper Pit at Bingham, Utah, one of the scenic attractions of the world. Besides their many other contributions, con-tributions, mines of Utah add greatly great-ly to the scenic attractions of the state, which is one of its many assets. Many tourists stay over a day or for several days to see the Utah Copper mina at Bingham, and each year hundreds of mining students and engineers come here from all parts of the world to witness the great porphyry and other mines in operation. Few people realize that the Utah Copper mine is one of the great man-made spectacles of the world. Probably one of the most awe-in-spring spectacles is to fly over Manhattan Island or the Parr ma Canal. They are man-made, but are made up of hundreds of different dif-ferent units, while Utah Copper is one thing, the greatest engineering and scientific accomplishment of modern mining. . Up to 1939 there had been moved from Utah Copper 288,000,000 cubic yards of ore and waste. It is esti mated that the excavations for the Panama Canal moved 232,000,000 cubic yards of material in building the 50-mile ocean link. Beautifully paved highways lead the tourist to this district Before reaching the mine you pass through the modern city of Copperton. Up the narrow canyon toward the mine is Bingham City, the "narrowest city In the world," and sometimes called the "melting pot of the world," due to the wide range of nationality of Its inhabitants. Other mining districts'; which attract at-tract the tourist are Alta, Park City, Tintic;-American Fork and Tooele. P''r' winter months, Alta Is a ej; i?; ' for thousands of ski enthusiasts, en-thusiasts, who come from all parts of the world to enjoy the Alpine slopes of this region. Roads to these districts are all excellent. Pratically all are reached by paved, double-lane highways. Were it not for the mines many of these roads would not have been built.
