Berkeley Pit, Butte, Montana, 1969.
At the time the photo was taken the mine was still active. Once decommissioned, the pit filled with water deemed now to be some of the most toxic surface water in the US. It is said that waterfowl landing on it die more-or-less immediately. Some efforts have been made to drain the pit.

BA&P Butte, MT by larry zeutschel
Via Flickr:
One of their two GP38-2's leads a train of concentrated copper slurry off to the smelter in Anaconda.
Milwaukee Road's Alloy siding is in the foreground with the main to the left. By this time, there weren't many ties that hadn't felt a derailed wheel. Winter and frozen ground were the railroads salvation. The final year was a western 10 mph railroad for a reason.
