From MarmoraHistory.ca: The Marmora Village Town Hall, built in 1913, has served as law courts, badminton courts, a movie theatre, and operating theatre for tonsillectomies. It has swung to the sounds of minstrel music, reverberated with the laughter of vaudeville, and rung to the rally cries of union leaders, recruiting officers and politicians, including Prime Minister Arthur Meighen, and Provincial Premiers, Howard Ferguson and Bob Rae.

Marmora Mine

Marmora Mine

In 1953, engineers had to blast through 120 feet of limestone before reaching high-grade ore. The open-pit mine measures approximately 1700 feet by 1200 feet and reached 600 feet deep. The mine employed some 300 men who worked to fill the 30 to 35 railway cars, daily, for transport south to Picton port where it was loaded into boats. The mine produced 520,000 tons of pellets annually. When the mine closed in 1979, it had mined almost 1.3 million tons of iron ore. Over time, underground streams and rainfall slowly filled the mine with water. So much so, that it is now officially classified as a lake.

Deloro Mine Site

Deloro Mine Site

From its place in the Madoc Gold Rush, to its innovations in creating and producing metals and alloys, Deloro played a key role in the history of mining and industry in Canada. There are also important lessons to be learned about the consequences of reckless exploitation of the environment – a legacy of our uninformed past – and the extensive cleanup that must follow.

While the first priority is to complete the cleanup of the mine site, the ministry is working with the community, heritage organizations, and other provincial ministries to preserve and promote the important natural, industrial, social and environmental history of the Deloro Mine Site. A heritage plan will be developed that will include preservation of several remaining structures, and the possible creation of walking trails and commemorative plaques once the cleanup is complete.

Deloro War Memorial

Deloro War Memorial

“LEST WE FORGET — THE PRICE OF FREEDOM graces the Digital Cenotaph component of the Deloro War Memorial. The Deloro War Memorial is the first digital cenotaph,” said Laura Forth, one of the project leads behind the creation of video and text content which will be accessible through a Quick Response Code (QRC), so people can walk up to it with their iPhone or iPad and scan the code and that will take them directly to a YouTube documentary.”

The biographical video will touch on the contribution of Canadian Forces, World War II and Korea War personnel, along with Deloro’s mining operation on the war effort. Click here to view this amazing film which won several awards at film festivals around the world!
