The Essence of Bonne Terre Mine

How does it feel to be scuba diving inside an abandoned, flooded mine? Enjoy the mysterious feeling of diving the Bonne Terre Mine in Missouri.

Pitch black, silent. Only a few lights from the guides highlight the walls of this abandoned lead mine in Bonne Terre, Missouri.  The feeling of diving here is indescribable. Jacques Cousteau once visited this eerie place on a whim and spent 3 more days exploring the vast mystery of the mine.  Today, you too can dive inside the mine and have an experience unlike any other.  See ore carts, mining tools and equipment, dynamite packing and even a train locomotive!
