The two types of Minnesota's banded iron ore are specularite and taconite. Specularite is a high-grade ore with well-defined, alternating layers of reddish chert and dark, glittery hematite; taconite has dark-gray bands and is much lower in grade. They share a common origin and are among the oldest ores ever mined. Two Banded Ore …
Hull Rust Mine View
Hibbing Taconite began shipping iron ore pellets in 1977. Although named the Mahoning-Hull-Rust Mine, this large open pit actually consisted of over 30 separate mines both open pit and underground. In 1920, the Village of Hibbing was moved 2 miles south so that the underground mining operation could become open pit mining.
