 The Miners Memorial,
situated at the entrance to the Museum of Northern History, is a
stunningly beautiful monument that pays tribute to the miners and
the industry that built Kirkland Lake.
The monument is a 40 tonne, 32-foot high black granite abstraction
of a head frame surrounded by the life size figures of five miners
at work underground. Created by artists Sally Lawrence and Rob Moir,
it is designed to honour the workers who toiled underground, and
mourn those who gave their lives in the mines of Kirkland Lake.
