| − | When thinking humans first evolved, it was possible to find nearly pure |
||
| − | deposits of several metals exposed on the Earth's surface. The most common |
||
| − | were gold, silver, and copper. As time passed, the surface deposits were |
||
| − | exhausted and men began digging into the ground looking for more. The mining |
||
| − | and excavation of the Earth in search of minerals continues today, although |
||
| − | the list of things for which we dig has greatly expanded. The discovery of |
||
| − | new metals and resources, or new methods of extraction, often turned |
||
| − | previously unwanted areas into mother lodes of oil, uranium, platinum, etc. |

||
| − | Railroads revolutionized transportation by providing a relatively cheap and |
||
| − | fast method of moving people, raw materials, finished goods, and military |
||
| − | units. Railroads were essential to the Industrial Revolution. Not only did |
||

||

||
| − | Advances in locomotive technology and engineering spun off into other |
||
| − | industries and applications. Railroads were the first great industrial |
