    Bellevue Underground Mine
    Enter the blackest dark at Bellevue's underground mine site, where several million tons of coal were extracted from the ground between the years of 1903 to 1961. The year of 1910 proved to be the most dangerous and deadly for workers, as two separate explosions killed more than 30 people. Strikes caused the mine to close periodically throughout its five decades of operations, but it remained profitable until the 1950s, when it became more viable to switch to diesel production.
