Exploring The Arizona Scar - A Gold Mine With A Shady History 

Looks like a tailless whip scorpion above the tarantula. Whip scorpions are arthropods - neither spider 🕷nor 🦂. They have no stingers, fangs, or teeth and are completely harmless to humans (aside from scaring you to death with their unsightly nature). They are non-venomous and some folks keep them as pets, allowing them to crawl all over their hands and whatnot. Also, great video! Good work filming, editing, and running your audio gear too! Thanks for sharing! Edit: typos

Pretty cool place. I'm a retired assayer so i'm always interested in assay reports. In particular ,where, by what method (grab sample, chip sample,etc.) Loved to explore that place. Great video! Hope to see ya soon.

Well researched, nicely presented, and brilliantly videoed and photographed! ...Thanks for sharing...

Cool Video...I really enjoyed it and learning more about one of the Gold Mine in my backyard. Looking forward to a new episode.

Tarantulas and bats oh wow that's crazy. Watching with my Uncle he's kinda blown away. Another great video

That is one massive open stope!

Awesome video beautifully shot and edited. Appreciate the effort this took, let alone getting to the spot in the first place. Safe Travels! Warren.

Thanks to the geologist who said this mine contained very little gold. Shareholders saved tons of money :)

There’s a few of these types of mines in Arizona, not to this size but with the some style! The one I exploded was just off mile marker 111 on the 93. Never found a name for it but definitely worth the drive!

That'd be the Tyro mine.

Damn bro, this is top quality editing. Kudos sir!

There’s a very similarly structured mine here in Northern California near Old Man Mt. in the Meadow Lakes mining district. It’s much, smaller than that, but still enormous. Big enough to throw a couple VW Microbusses in there at the same time, and you could do it without any danger of them hitting the sides in the way down. Point being, very unusual, indeed, but not a one-off. I just thought it was cool, I guess, that I’d found one that reminded me very much of this, albeit much smaller surface-workings.

Fantastic work as always!

I enjoyed the video. You did some very good filming. Kinda felt realistic ya know...I was there walking alongside you. Lol. Thanks for the adventure. Take care 😁👍👍👍

Nice work ive been into 40+ Mines ive been wanting to go into this one but i own only a exotic car. great work man.

The production value to traffic this channel gets ratio is way too unfair. You need more viewers man this is great content!

For a solo hike, this was edited beautifully. Great job.

I like the well documented research given with one of the most unusual mines that I've ever seen. Thank you. How do you go about finding the documentation?

What is your primary safety equipment entail when adventuring old mines

Man you have some balls of steel to go in there by yourself

I have seen other RU-vidr mine explores at this site, But with no real history behind the explore. Great job in doing your homework.

The place is so interesting

Thanks! The history you found is very good. I could not find this on google maps

Great video. Strange this popped up as I was here today 07/24/2022. I’ve been here several times. This mine has a name but I suppose I’ll keep it to myself. The mine has been purchased, I had the opportunity to meet the owner out there. When you took the left branching drift from the timbered shaft that ladder next to the chute at the end accesses the top of the chutes. Also there is an access where the spider was, someone has tied a rope to one of the stulls. If you look at the levers on the ore chutes they are made from drill steel. I’m the timbered shaft it appears the second ladder going down has lost its landing or I wasn’t able to see it well enough. I did not go down the ladders though they appear to be in decent shape. I’m the ball room where the timbered shaft is, is a large pocket of fluorite, pretty stuff. Again, cool video loved the history given on this too.

Vinagaroons are rather shocking when you first meet one, even the juveniles like this one....🤣 but the Tarantulas won't hurt ya! 😅

Awesome !

Man, if you ever need a Mine Buddy, holler! Sketchy AF by yourself man.

That looked like a tarantula hawk waiting for that tarantula to make a move.

How are u not scared as hell those places r creepy

Nice truck keep it up 👍

Great video, Gly from Abandoned and Forgotten places has done an exploration video on this as well!

hard hat Never have understood why these folk never took a metal detector -- stuff falls off the carts ya know

Awesome brotha. Love the builds and travel vids. What do you do for a living

Big mine waw i lo e it

You would have a field day at Cerro Gordo

Have relatives in Kingman, should go check out the Bullhead area

Open stopes! Do you follow Gly Coolness? I like your presentation of both the history and discovery.

Is this out by havucuar mtns?

ooh that looks sweet, where is this located? I tried finding it on google maps with little success

How do you get info on mines?

Are you in Golden Valley AZ or Oatman area

Where is this located?

What's that thing mounted on his hood???

Reddit bought me here

I would think that they would put some sort of barrier around the top. I know it is a remote area but someone could walk right in in the dark. Interesting place. Fraud, not a new invention.

Im same way about them nasty ass snakes. Spiders I don’t like but don’t bother me like snakes do.

Subscribed! Is this private property or were there any signs?

The scars on the earth are you talking about them great big massive scars that you drove in on earth that you drive it on every day or that little scar that was called a mine. Have you seen the massive scars on this earth caused by roadways freeways etc. how about the railroads massive scars ! I bet you can look out your window and see the massive scars you don’t have to drive out the middle of the desert and hurt for one little tiny spot

Music playing in the back ground ruins your video

Um !!! You said that there were no reports you could find on how” to get up to next level , Yet you walked past a man way next to a ore Soute and don’t go up um “ , love to hear why ? . Cheers .

Good job of using an oxygen meter, but where is the HARD HAT ? One pound of solid rock dropping from the roof will crack your head open with killing you, so then the oxygen meter would be of no use ! Please set a good example for others to follow.

Lose the background “music”.

My name is John I live in Texas, I'm into exploring and prospecting I'd love to come with you on your next run.
