Hi Tony, when I visit Whitby I usually buy a piece of black jet jewellery from there. It has a lovely shine to it. Its not that expensive either. Whitby is known for its jet. Interesting mine! ❤much love 😊 stay safe.
I found a nice lump of polished jet in the river Don Sth York's. I imagine it a relic of the Sheffield flood 1864 because jet was popularly used for handles on pocket knives & a lot of little mesters workshops were destroyed.
Hello Antonio and Curtis. This is a great explore. I’d never heard of jet before so I thank you for the lesson. As always be safe and know you’re loved.
Currently having a look in the many jet mines myself looking for black gold lol great vids would love some more on the jet mines take car alt best keep up the good work
The jet bands are only about a foot thick so, rather than take out a lot of mudstone, the jet miners tended to dig as little as they could and CRAWLED along the bnds, taking the jet out and as little mudstone as they needed to.
