Newton Falls Benson (Bensen) Mines buildings (first built by the Magnetic
Iron Company in 1889 and later owned by Jones & Laughlin Ore Company and then
merged with Bensen Mines), closed in 1987, junction of Route 60 and Route 3,
Town of Clifton, St. Lawrence County, in the Adirondacks not far from Star Lake. The above
buildings are near the pit. Nearby are large piles of tailings and a large
man-made lake. In November of 1987 when the mine was running a large
amount of oil spilled across part of the facility at one point. At one
time was the largest open pit in the world. The mine itself was two and a
half miles long and a half mile wide, and a hundred and twenty to a hundred and
ninety feet deep but now it is a five hundred and forty acre lake (info from the now-defunct Clifton Fine wiki).

of buildings that was recently burned down a couple of weeks ago by Redwood and
Alex Bay Fire Depts. It was a controlled burn and still smolders sometimes. This
kind of stuff makes me sad when it is left in ruin. So many things could have
been done with this place. :("
