I sure do hope that I don't look dumb for admitting this, but I had never heard of trona until this video... I knew of soda ash, but the name trona is new to me. I wish we could have actually seen them mining, and watched the big machines at work. Regardless though, this was incredibly interesting. Thank you for sharing this on RUclips, Wyoming PBS!
My father ERNESTO MONTOYA , MSHA , USED TO INSPECT THAT MINE IN THE MID TO LATE 80s , he was based out of CRAIG COLORADO... I HAVE JENNER MINING STICKERS ...
Jokes on you, the mine was purchased by Ciner (turkish; pronounced jen-ner) in the last ten years. Before Ciner the mine was owned by a Korean company called OCI.
