Malagash Salt Mine - Nova Scotia. Canada's biggest salt mine, largest in the British Empire, goes all out in a spectacular war effort. This deposit, more than 100 miles long and 400 feet wide is the largest in northern hemisphere. It is snow white and 98.5% pure, contains more potash, another vital war chemical, than any other salt mine in the world save Stassfurt, Germany. Dozens of sprays throughout the mine send salt water (brine) to this underground lake. The brine, pumped to the surface and evaporated, leaves crystalline grained salt. Here miners are shown in a boat at work on some stays.
