Fowler zinc mine

The Fowler mine is a abandoned zinc, iron, and lead mine on the southeast side of Bumpus Cove. It is the largest hydraulic iron mine in the cove, and consists of two hydraulic mining cuts on opposite sides of Fowler Branch, which flows through the middle of the mine. During the 1970s, it was the site of an incinerator and was used to illegally store barrels of hazardous waste.
