Carneyville (Kleenburn) 1904-1924
I-90 Exit 25 at Sheridan Visitor's Center

This mine was located 9 miles North of Sheridan. Traveling North along Interstate 90, as you approach the 2nd exit after leaving Sheridan, you will turn right. You will notice a great deal of subsidence in the hillside. This is where the Carneyville mining shafts were. This mine employed 450 miners and had two tipple loadouts. In the valley to the right of the shafts lay the mining community of Carneyville (Kleenburn). This community had 150 to 200 houses and approximately 2000 people residing there.
