S.S. Cason Callaway loading Natural Ore at Two Harbors, MN - 1999

This video shows the S.S. Cason J Callaway arriving and loading natural iron ore at the DM&IR (Duluth Missabe and Iron Range) ore docks in Two Harbors, MN.

At the time this was shot, natural ore was being mined at the Auburn Mine. This is natural ore, not taconite. Meaning that is mined, crushed and loaded on trains. No other processing is needed. This was the way it was done for years until the mid 60's. Today there is very little natural ore available for use. Most all of what is mined today is taconite.
