Kirkland Lake Miners' Memorial, Mining memorial in Kirkland Lake, Canada
The Kirkland Lake Miners' Memorial features a 32-foot black granite structure shaped like a head frame, surrounded by five life-sized bronze miner statues.
The memorial completed in 1994 commemorates over 300 miners who lost their lives in local mines since 1914, marking the foundation of Kirkland Lake.
Five bronze figures depict miners performing different underground tasks, representing the workforce that established this northern Ontario mining community.
Located at the entrance of the Museum of Northern History, the memorial includes a lawn area with picnic tables for visitors to gather.
The monument incorporates authentic mining equipment, including stone bolts from local mines and machinery donated by mining companies and workers.
