EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Hydraulic development of the Strelochny mine - Rock enrichment," was captured by Vladimir Ivanovich Fedorov in the Amur Oblast of Russia in 1909. The image offers a glimpse into the industrial revolution that was transforming Russia during the early 20th century. The Strelochny mine, located in this region, was a significant coal mining operation. In this photograph, we see the hydraulic development process in action, which involved the use of water to break up and separate the coal from the surrounding rock. The miners, dressed in heavy clothing and hats, are seen working diligently to direct the flow of water and ensure the efficient operation of the hydraulic system. The concept of rock enrichment, which is the process of separating valuable minerals from the waste rock, is also evident in this photograph. The piles of rocks in the foreground suggest that this process was an integral part of the mining operation. The meeting of frontiers between technology and nature is a prominent theme in this image. The use of hydraulic systems to extract coal from the earth represented a significant advancement in mining technology, allowing for greater efficiency and productivity. Yet, the harsh conditions of the mining environment are evident in the rugged terrain and the heavy machinery. This photograph is an important historical artifact that offers insights into the industrial history of Russia during the early 1900s. It is a reminder of the hard work and dedication of the miners who labored in the mines to extract the natural resources that fueled the economic growth of their country. Today, this image is preserved in the Amur Oblast Museum of Regional History and Folklife, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Russia's industrial past.
