A mine remains active long after it stops producing.  Scary stuff from Nova Scotia.  Really interesting write up from the CBC here.

The Bell Island mine is not in Labrador, it is a small island in Conception Bay, Newfoundland, totally different then the current iron operations in Labrador (same province thought).
