TOUCHING MEMORIAL CAIRN UNVEILED

- EMYLIE HOWIE

Brave miners killed while working will never be forgotten

A memorial cairn and plaque has been unveiled in Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park to remember the men who lost their lives working in the Muirshiel Barytes Mine between 1942 and 1969.

The disused mine is located four kilometres from Muirshiel Visitor Centre, high in the moorlands of the regional park.

Barytes is a high-density material often used as a filler and white pigment in textiles, paint and paper production.

It also has uses in medicine and when drilling for oil and gas. The mine closed in September 1969 having been worked in for about 200 years.
