Ghost Mine

Ghost Mine

A ghost mine is a pyrotechnic device which projects a large, ethereal-looking colored fireball into the sky. The effect is produced by mixing methyl alcohol with a pyrotechnic colorant. Since alcohol burns with a nearly invisible flame, all that is seen by the audience is a cloud of glowing color (the colorant) taking the shape of the invisible fireball. [ [http://www.skylighter.com/specialOffer.asp?offer=2ES07BR1BM How to make fireball ghost mines] , Skylighter inc, 2007 (accesssed 22 January,2007)] It was invented by Chris Spurrell, a research chemist from Hawthorne, California.
