Video Description
Dirt World stickers now available at https://dirtworldstore.com/ Only a stone's throw from Salt Lake City lies the world's deepest mine — Rio Tinto Kennecott. Hardworking miners have extracted copper, silver, gold, and other critical resources here for over a century. Not only do they mine incredible amounts of ore here using shovels and trucks, but it's also America's only integrated copper mining operation. This means they start with rock and end with 99.9% pure copper, all in the same place! If you use electricity, you use copper. It doesn't get more essential! To learn more about the operation, check out the website linked below: https://www.riotinto.com/en/operations/us/kennecott
