Abandoned Places, Superior, Arizona

Superior Copper Mine
Visited the town of superior with the intensions of getting inside the grounds of the copper mining site to explore the old ruins, warehouses and structures, but was stopped by security. They said the grounds were top secret and the area was illegal to photograph. Sure, I can see if I wanted to go inside the ground, but not on the surface. I even took it a step further and went to their corporate center to request a guided tour and still nothing. Maybe re-visit in a few years when the town and mines go dry and bankrupt.
