One of a number of posters that I have recorded on my travels across this fascinating country. This example is from the Baiyin mine and smelter complex in Gansu Province, west central China. Whilst a visit to the Xiaotieshan Lead Zinc mine was not permitted for security reasons (I understand that silver and gold are also produced), I was able to record this sign at the start of the mountain road that leads to the mine. It gives some idea of the surface layout.

The caption reads 'Baiyin Group Co. welcome you to the mine of Xiaotieshan'.
