Bingham Canyon was a city formerly located in southwestern Salt Lake County, Utah, United States, in a narrow canyon on the eastern face of the Oquirrh Mountains. The Bingham Canyon area boomed during the first years of the twentieth century, as rich copper deposits in the canyon began to be developed, and at its peak the city had approximately 15,000 residents. The success of the local mines eventually proved to be the town's undoing, however: by the mid-twentieth century, the huge open-pit Bingham Canyon Mine began encroaching on the land of the community, causing residents to relocate. By the 1970s, almost the entirety of the town had been devoured by the mine, and the few remaining residents voted to disincorporate and abandon the community. No trace of Bingham Canyon remains today.

  • Bingham Canyon bylo město v Utahu ve Spojených státech amerických. Nacházelo se v okrese Salt Lake County nedaleko od utažského hlavního města Salt Lake City. Sídlo dostalo svůj název podle jeho prvních osadníků, bratrů Thomase a Sanforda Binghamových, kteří se v kaňonu usadili roku 1848. Později na místě bylo nalezeno značné množství zlata a stříbra. Roku 1863 začalo větší osidlování a roku 1873 byla do obce dovedena železnice. Dne 29. února 1904 se Bingham Canyon stal městem a na vrcholu slávy mělo až 15 tisíc obyvatel. Počínaje dvacátými léty začalo město upadat. Nedaleké doly se postupně rozrůstaly až na území města, jehož poslední budovy byly strženy v roce 1972. (cs)
