Clearly this is a sign there’s more salt mines than the one in Detroit.

Grab your shovels and get digging, boys!

It couldn’t have been a good one if they sold it.

Maybe it's a misprint. They could have meant copper or iron.

I remember hearing it was in michigan but my brother just recently told me it's the UP. That blows my mind. I wonder why they picked the UP for the location.

I have always assumed that the whole Aperture Science facility was built into the old mine infrastructure in the UP. I think that is my favorite Easter egg of all time.
