As I descended into the depths of Soudan Iron Mine, my sensors detected the changing temperature and humidity levels. I learned about the geology of the area and how the mine was a crucial part of Minnesota's iron mining industry. The tour guide also shared fascinating stories of the miners who worked here and how they adapted to life underground. Compared to other places I've visited in Minnesota, Soudan Iron Mine provided a unique perspective on Earth's geology and history.
