The mine once included an underground stable for the mules used to haul the gypsum.[1] Plaster productionThe gypsum from this mine was used to manufacture plaster, both for exterior use as stucco and for a tinted interior wall covering known as 'alabastine'. Use as a Fallout ShelterNew access elevators to the mine were constructed in to convert the mine to a storage area. Parts of the mine served as a Cold War fallout shelter. Storage FacilitySince 1957, the mine has been operated by Michigan Natural Storage as a storage facility. It leases space to a firm that provides microfilm records storage for many Michigan courthouses.[2] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.mindat.org/loc-127051.html |title=Alabastine Mine, Kent Co., Michigan, USA |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=1 February 2011}} 2. ^{{cite news |author= |first=Matt |last= Vande Bunte|authorlink= |url=http://www.mlive.com/business/west-michigan/index.ssf/2010/08/photos_rare_tour_of_undergroun.html|agency=m-live |newspaper= Grand Rapids Press|publisher= |location= |isbn= |issn= |oclc= |pmid= |pmd= |bibcode= |doi= |id= |date= |page= |pages= |accessdate= 5 February 2011 |quote= |title=Photos: Rare tour of underground record keeping center in Wyoming}} External links
