The authors reported here on the progress in construction of the Soudan 2 nucleon decay detector which is being built at the Soudan iron mine in Minnesota. The authors also report the expected event rate and characteristics of low energy neutrino events, muon events, multiple muon events, and other cosmic ray phenomena which the authors might be sensitive to.
