In the Altlayer Bach valley, slate was quarried on the surface after underground mining was given up in the 20th century.

The great amount of mining spoil can also now be used to backfill earlier underground mineworks. In a Sponheim document from 20 June 1489, slate mining “near Altlay” is confirmed as having been undertaken as early as that time.

The eruption was one of the deadliest and most destructive volcanic events in recorded history and explosions were so violent that they were heard away in Perth, Western Australia, and Rodrigues near Mauritius, away. At least 36,417 deaths are attributed to the eruption and the tsunamis it created. Significant additional effects were also felt around the world in the days and weeks after the volcano's eruption.

Lighthouse and citadel building, c. 1893 Army engineer James B. McPherson, later to become a prominent general during the Civil War, was one of the earliest commanders to serve on Alcatraz in 1858. In 1859 Captain Joseph Stewart became commander of the active fort. Alcatraz was used to house soldiers who were guilty of crimes as early as 1859. By 1861, the fort was the military prison for the Department of the Pacific and housed Civil War prisoners of war (POWs) as early as that year. Starting in 1863, the military also held private citizens accused of treason, after the writ of habeas corpus in the United States was suspended. The number of cells were increased in 1867 and the facility became a long-term military prison in 1868. Alcatraz was crucial to defense during the American Civil War (1861–1865), having some 111 cannons encircling the island at peak, and was also used as a war camp.
