Ilia: We lived in Mantle with the other Faunus working the mines. But my parents wanted something better for me. They managed to enroll me in an Atlas prep school. Imagine that - a little Faunus girl from Mantle going to the city of dreams. (sighs) I felt like a princess.

And since Atlas is effectively Laputa, its doubtful there are any Atlas Mines, but there are Mantle Mines. Thanks.
