Actually they have a great Milling Engineering school in fact it may be the best in the country of course there just are not that many.

Old guy Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Milling grain in a large scale is not a simple procedure. I can see the need for programs in this area and demand for graduates. I assume then that the mining programs are to be found in Colorado or Nevada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes absolute sense, Missouri was historically more of a mining and river commerce State than an agricultural State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 One of Missouri's State Parks, the Powerhouse museum at 4000 State Hwy 32 by Park Hills MO, is at the site of the exhausted St. Joseph lead mine and displays the history of lead mining in MO. We took the tour, and were told that the last lead smelter in the US, the one in Herculanum, had been closed by executive order by the Obama administration. I have not visited the smelter or know if they are open for tours, but I believe the MO State parks information is more reliable than Google's, particularly since this state park is charged with presenting the history of the lead mining industry in the state.
