  Louis Janin photographs of Australian mining

  Visual Materials

  This collection contains 41 mounted 6 x 8-inch photographs of gold and copper mines, miners, and mining facilities in Australia, approximately 1895, including close-up scenes of miners working with tools and equipment inside mines. Other images depict overviews of mine buildings and surrounding land, smelters, mine interiors with walls of timber, and miners wearing helmets with oil lamp lanterns. The photographs were taken by American mining engineer Louis Janin, who traveled to the Australian mining districts in 1895 to identify uses for American mining methods and equipment. He contributed a report, published in 1897, for the prospectus of Australia's Cobar Chesney Copper and Gold Mining Company. Most likely these photographs are connected to one or both of these projects. Handwritten captions on the photographs identify the following mines: C.C.C.; the Peak; Chesney; Mount Pleasant; Young Australian; and Cobar, as well as Fort Bourke Dam and Fort Bourke Cyanide Works.
