Richins\, and Michael G. Nelson DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum and Friends of Ski Mountain Mining History will host an in-person lecture called Park City and Kennecott—Post-Mining Land Use at Two Historic Sites in Utah given by Donovan Symonds\, Amy J. Richins\, and Michael G. Nelson on Wednesday\, October 5th from 5-6 p.m. at the EDUCATION AND COLLECTIONS CENTER 2079 SIDEWINDER DRIVE. Please register for the lecture at www.parkcityhistory.org/events. \nMining at two locations in Utah have resulted in vastly different post-mining land use. Copper ore was discovered in Bingham Canyon in 1848. Mining of placer deposits began in 1863\, and high-grade porphyry ore in 1887. Low-grade porphyry copper was not mined until D.C. Jackling started open-pit mining with steam shovels and rail haulage in 1906. The Bingham Canyon mine is still operating\, at about 200\,000 short tons of ore daily. High-grade silver ore was discovered near Park City in 1872. The district produced complex ores containing lead\, zinc\, copper\, gold\, and silver. Production slowed in the early 1950s\, and the last mine closed in 1982. Post-mining land use in these two sites varies markedly. Bingham Canyon is an active mine\, with large waste dumps\, a mill\, a tailings pond\, and a smelter. Still\, several areas are undergoing active redevelopment. Park City is now a high-end ski resort town with million-dollar residences. It also has a legacy of post-mining land use challenges\, including deteriorating head frames and shafts\, malls and houses built on un-reclaimed tailings\, and more. This presentation describes some of the activities of in both areas. \nRegister for this lecture\n\n\n \n \n \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Phone\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://parkcityhistory.org/event/park-city-and-kennecott-post-mining-land-use-at-two-historic-sites-in-utah-in-person-lecture-given-by-donovan-symonds-amy-j-richins-and-michael-g-nelson/ CATEGORIES:Friends of Ski Mining Mountain History,Lectures ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://parkcityhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Mountains-Color-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20221011T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20221011T180000 DTSTAMP:20260404T050646 CREATED:20220510T190308Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220926T204642Z UID:10000359-1665507600-1665511200@parkcityhistory.org SUMMARY:The Maya and Teotihuacan: Art\, Ritual\, and a Pre-Columbian Mystery lecture given by Lexy Hartford DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum will host a lecture called The Maya and Teotihuacan: Art\, Ritual\, and a Pre-Columbian Mystery given by Lexy Hartford on October 11th from 5-6 p.m. at the Park City Museum Education and Collections Center Building located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive. Please register for the lecture at www.parkcityhistory.org/events. \nTeotihuacan (1-550 AD)\, located in Central Mexico\, was the largest urban center in Mesoamerica prior to the Aztec. Because of its monumental pyramids\, perfectly aligned grid layout\, and thousands of “apartment complexes\,” the Aztec referred to the site as the “City of the Gods.” Despite not knowing whether Teotihuacan was governed by kings or community rule\, evidence from the site suggests that Teotihuacan’s enormous power and influence extended all the way into Honduras. But to what extent did Teotihuacan control the great kings and queens of the Maya? Through a look at elaborate ritual practices\, human sacrifices\, Maya texts alluding to mysterious deaths and possibly murders\, and recently discovered 2000-year-old murals\, this lecture will examine the current state of this mystery. \nLexy is the Museum Assistant at the Park City Museum and has previously worked at Pecos National Historical Park and the Museum of International Folk Art in New Mexico\, the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology in Boston\, and the Horniman Museum and Gardens\, Courtauld Institute of Art\, and Whitehall Historic House in London. She holds master’s degrees in both museum studies and archaeology from University College London in the UK and Harvard University\, respectively. Lexy has led archaeological excavations at Cahokia Mounds\, Harvard University\, Copan\, Honduras\, and Teotihuacan\, Mexico\, where she was part of the team that discovered the 2000-year-old murals. \nRegister for this lecture\n\n \n \n \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Phone\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://parkcityhistory.org/event/the-maya-and-teotihuacan-art-ritual-and-a-pre-columbian-mystery-lecture-given-by-lexy-hartford/ CATEGORIES:Lectures ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://parkcityhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Lexy-picture-lecture-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
