Abercrombie Salt Mine

The Abercrombie Salt Mine, formerly known as the Patterson Mine, was a mine in South Duley, Louisiana.

History
The mine suffered a collapse in February 1892, resulting in the deaths of two miners (Tuan and Beckford), with a third (Huxley) left crippled. An older man connected with the mine, Stan, had previously warned the miners that the ground was too unstable to be mined. Tight on funding, the company gave little relief and instead ordered the miners to carry on working as normal with extra shifts to supplement the depleted workforce.

In 2015 the mine, long abandoned, was utilised by Lucas Baker.
