New Exhibit Makes a Splash 

_(Prepare for numerous water-themed puns)_ 

We at Britannia Mine Museum are excited to share the news that our
latest exhibit, Water: Beneath the Surface, is making waves in our
community! The Squamish Chief newspaper has written a wonderful feature,
diving into the displays and activities of our largest exhibit to date.

On the surface, water seems like an odd subject for a mining museum to
discuss. However, water is crucial to the mining process, from the
formation of the mineral being mined, to separating mineral from rock,
to transporting the final product. It's important to understand the
impact water has on mining, and the impact mining has on water. 

We've divided the exhibit into three zones where visitors can dip their
toes into the vast world of H20. We've also added daily Science of
Water: Labs from 12pm to 1pm to accompany the exhibit. Visitors can get
their hands wet with 6 interactive experiments including a taste-test,
water-droplet maze, and laser demonstration.  

Take the plunge and submerse yourself in Water: Beneath the Surface. On
now through September.
