Join me on an adrenaline-pumping adventure as I explore the richest and scariest gold mine I've ever encountered! Despite the challenges of fitting through narrow passages and navigating treacherous conditions, I uncover a gold vein that yields incredibly rich gold specimens. From trying to mine the vein to discovering a super rich gold zone, this video captures the excitement and thrill of gold mine exploration. Should I dare to go back for more gold in this perilous mine? Watch to find out!

@loyalkuhn5778
@loyalkuhn5778 Год назад
Hey Jason, I can tell you a quick reminder about what I learned 40 years ago the hard way. There are old miners, and there are bold miners, but there are no Old Bold Miners !!! I was in a position like yours, playing with a pillar that looked good and stout, it had nice gold and needless to say, I wanted the gold. I thought the pillar was solid and would be easy to hi-grade for the PMs. I didn't notice a hairline crack along a crystal face and just kept banging (lightly, haha). To shorten this tale, my foot was braced at the base of the pillar. Everything was just fine until I heard a really high-pitched "Ting" instead of a "Tap" and 60 lbs of pillar rolled across my foot. I did have on steel toed boots, but that doesn't help much when the rock squished right across the arch of my foot. Being a sailor for six years really improved my vocabulary but failed to relieve the horrible ache in my foot. I didn't walk quite right for almost seven months. I just gimped out and left that project behind. It's your decision, but being crippled or dead doesn't bring home any paychecks and you can't play on the shaker table.. Start like a new project and build a stope the right way without turning your body parts into a mess resembling Raspberry Jam. One hand for you, one for the mine, and use that brain-bucket for it's original use !!!

I too have been in this mine. And no, I didn't remove a single rock. That winze with the ladders from the transfer drift goes down to a haulage adit. We found a way thru the stope to get to the other side, the miners stoped out to the vertical cliff face, had hundreds of feet of exposure, one of the coolest views from and of the hundreds of mines I've explored. Mines of the West youtube channel did a vid on this mine, but only the lower haulage. In it you can see up the winze jason looks down here.

Only for the fact that he uploaded the video I knew that the anxiety I felt for him was misplaced. But I certainly would worry for his future if he's prepared to take risks like that. It would be different if he was undertaking to stope out the areas where he could then remove the pillars entirely? The scale of that undertaking and manpower and work required make it unfeasible. But I'm definitely curious to see what he got in his samples, can't wait!

Well Jason, I was quite excited during the video. Certainly there is a very good reason the miners worked and left this mine. The quartz looks superb and yes, I actually would also risked a bit to pick here and there. But you are absolutely right - the mine is scary. It's wet, the wood is decomposing, the rock is cracked and moving obviously over time. One last point: Please keep some of the specimen and work with acid (you know which one) on them to expose the gold crystals / nuggets. It breaks my heart to see all potential specimen just beeing processed with the rest of the rocks.

I would know nothing about the pillar full of gold because it would not be in front of me because I would be on the surface and wouldn't set too foot inside that cave. LOL. And the only reason I continue watching this is because I know you made it out alive because you posted the video. If you were broadcasting this live I would have changed channels because I couldn't take it. 👀

I love these prospecting videos but I’ve also really been wanting to see some more smelting videos on all this different ore that you have collected from these different mine do you know when you’ll have some more smelting videos out?😊

Jason this reminded me of the Old Indiana Jones movies, pressure plates and large bolders rolling down narrow tunnels trying to kill You!!! Kept holding my breath through this entire video!! I've been in caves and this was definitely a scary place!

9:49 There is a good market for gold in quartz as specimens! That is another market to explore! Good hunting! And stay safe, Jason! Should not go hunting alone! Have a Merry Christmas!

The beginning of the video had me pretty uneasy. Really don't like tight spaces. Elevators bother me pretty little, but the crawl space under my moms house had me in damned near panic mode lol I gotta say though, gold prospecting a mine like that might just entice me enough to go in lol But, there are things more valuable than gold. Time and life rank very high on the most valuable things. Excellent video, seriously. Just be careful 😉

If you don’t have one already, I’d suggest getting an oxygen meter for when you go exploring around in these old mines.. maybe a higher powered longer life light as well. 😉

Is there any way you can make that mine suitable for you? So it does not look too scary anymore? Like putting new beams Where the old ones were or close to them!

Gold fever overcame the fear of being squashed again. Looking over the new tunnel where the water was, overcame the fear of the light going off. 😮

Jason, with today's Gold prices, do you think it would be worth going in there with what you saw left and restoring safe access and mining out the rest?

Thanks Jason for sharing your adventures with us and the wealth of knowledge you share with us. I have been retired for a couple of years now and living in Southern California I have some decent opportunities for hard rock prospecting out in the high desert. Who would of thought that this hard work could be so much fun!

Hey Jason, what is that country rock in the mine that's so crumbly? Also, is there any way MSHA would allow remediation and mining in that mine? Trying to imagine how it could be made safe and coming up short. Would the overburden prevent just going for open-top mining or is there a mtn above?

Is it possible to rehabilitate a mine once it reaches a dangerous level of disrepair? If so, might be a worthwhile adventure. That was some really nice gold. Could one turn a profit just by mucking out and processing those rocks?
@rockbutcher
@rockbutcher Год назад
Given the shallow dip of the vein and how close the workings are to surface, it would be safer just to turn it into an open pit operation. Once you got to the bottom of the workings you could re-evaluate the waste to ore strippage ratio going deeper and then maybe go back underground on it.
@lotharschiese8559
@lotharschiese8559 Год назад
@@rockbutcher Sorry does not compute, narrow vein deposit mining you drill/blast the foot wall first to create a void to break the ore into, putting a mucking sheet down first so as to minimize dilution of the ore and easier mucking! Your rational is cost prohibitive, you would go bankrupt real quick!!

@@lotharschiese8559 Thanks for clarifying my errors of the last 32 years in the mining industry. Where have you been all my life? Resue blasting is vastly more expensive than open pitting at this depth.
