Abstract. This chapter is an introduction to the significance of quarrying from the point of view of anthropogenic geomorphology. As a consequence of the extraction of mineral raw materials, so-called 'mining landscapes' have emerged since the 19th century. The spatial distribution of quarrying of aggregates, and the characteristics and ...
The iron-master's mansion, furnace ruins and other buildings provide a historical perspective. The park's two lakes, 1.7-acre Fuller Lake and 25-acre Laurel Lake, are also remnants of the area's iron making heritage. Fuller Lake was an iron ore quarry that filled with groundwater when operations ceased.

The de-watering of Steep Rock Lake itself has been called an extraordinary engineering and construction feat. The huge lake was sectioned into three 'arms' by dams: Lake A, B (largest ore deposit) and C. Pumping out of more than 80 billion gallons of water from Lake B began in December 1943 with 14 electrically-driven centrifugal pumps, …

Fuller Lake is the body of water with 5 acres (0.020 km2) of surface area in the former Pine Grove Quarry in Pennsylvania. During the period of iron ore excavation when the pit depth had sufficiently increased, mountain springs that filled the quarry required pumping (modern inflow maintains a low water temperature for swimming).

In 1910 planning and development began to construct a hydroelectric dam on the Cheat River to feed the growing need for electricity. The plans were to create 1,000 feet wide, 125 feet high dam that would form the 1,729 acre lake with 26 miles of shoreline. However, as World War I broke out in Europe the construction was halted until 1925.
A Brief History of Iron Ore Mining and Production in Rutland and the East Midlands. Ironstone is a naturally occurring rock which contains minerals, notably iron. Ironstone was formed due to sedimentation on ancient sea beds during the Jurassic period in geological history, some 145 million years ago. Eventually, as the seas over Britain ...
At 25 acres, Laurel Lake is older and much larger than Fuller Lake. It was created in 1830 to provide water power to Laurel Forge built by Ironmaster Peter Ege to increase his profits.

Sharing some history about Fuller Lake in Pine Grove Furnace State Park.
1880s the village had also become a centre not just of iron-ore quarrying but also of processing the ore ready for transportation to the steel furnaces of Wales and the Midlands. The approach to the village from Bloxham was dominated on the north side, between the road and the railway line, by several huge kilns – four by the
The Joyce Lake DSO iron ore project will involve a conventional drill, blast, load and haul open-pit mining operation. The project envisages the development of a pit 1,085m long, 650m wide and 230m deep. The lowest bench will be at an elevation of 309.5m above sea level. The in-pit haulage roads will be 24m wide.
Fuller Lake's name honors the last "Ironmaster" at Pine Grove Furnace.
