Description : The electric hoist is composed of a number of wheels that power the system as well as house cable that would act as areas of attachment for objects moving in the mine. The hoist is controlled by three handles that raise and lower the cable from underground to the surface.
Commentaires : This was the first hoist used in the Iron Springs Mine, and the first used in the St. Lawrence Mines. Equipment such as the cage, bucket, and scraper would be attached to the cable of the hoist and moved to and from the mine.
Fonctions : The electric hoist was used for raising ore and waste to the surface while sinking a mine shaft, as well as transporting personnel, mine equipment and materials to and from various working levels located underground.
