Description

English: The Advanced Land Imager (ALI) on NASA’s Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) satellite captured this image on May 28, 2011. The mine is a network of buildings, terraced land, and roads situated in a mountain range within the Mojave Desert. The bright green areas in the northwest are settling ponds—reservoirs where mining wastewater is held until the suspended particles slowly precipitate out to the bottom.
