Today we're going to take a step back in time and discover some of Victoria's most remarkable gold mining history, nestled away in a picturesque alpine valley.
Beautifully restored and maintained, Walhalla is a must-see destination where you can take a trip on the stunning Walhalla Goldfields Railway, head underground on a guided mine tour, explore the town's charming stores and museums, and enjoy the natural beauty of the region. You can even set out on a ghost tour after dark.
In this video, we're going to take a look into the history of the Long Tunnel Extended Gold Mining Company, exploring some of the mining methods and machinery used by the mines in Walhalla - some typical of gold mines throughout Victoria, and some truly remarkable.

Much appreciation for the generous hospitality of the folks at the Long Tunnel Extended Gold Mine, who allowed me to film underground, answered endless questions, and shared lots of fascinating information regarding these mines as well as the beautiful town.
When I visited for a tour, I was blown away by the unique history and development of these mines, and their story is brilliantly presented by the extremely knowledgeable and passionate tour guides at the Long Tunnel Extended.
I highly recommend you head up to Walhalla to check it out.

While this video shares some interesting features of these mines, it is not a comprehensive history. If you'd like to learn more, head up to beautiful Walhalla, and be sure to book in for a tour of the Long Tunnel Extended Gold Mine. While you're there, drop by the Corner Stores and Museum for a huge assortment of brilliant information and history books relating to these mines and the Walhalla area.

You have truly outdone yourself Michelle! You keep rising up the bar and it clearly shows on this video. Its evident that you have spent alot of time research and editing .. not to mention travelling and you deserve all the credit possible. Plus you have made me drolling over the machinery too!

@goldfieldsguide 7 месяцев назад

Thanks Rob, you’re very kind 🙂 the machinery is so interesting, I had such a good time working on this one 🙂⚒📸 cheers

@jeffbrooks8024 5 месяцев назад

The possibilities are highlighted at Fosterville and Navarre’s Stawell exploration and Geovic’s work to demonstrate the Victorian goldfields are much larger than previously thought. Estimates say that perhaps only forty percent of Victoria’s gold has been recovered. In addition to that is the possibilities of other valuable minerals that were previously considered unwanted by products. One of note is Navarre’s possible Andean style copper deposit which if brought to production could rival the largest copper mines in South America. The story of Victorian mining could be far from over. Lastly, congratulations on a very well produced video

In 1960 my father worked on the road up to Walhalla...he was the powder monkey. Because there were 5 of us kids, the school was able to be opened. My father wrote a school song ( I still remember it- mostly...I am 68). The saw mill was still there, and it had a bathroom- of sorts. The boiler was always lit, so we all went once a week to have a great overflowing hot bath and wash our hair. My father would open the fire door, and us girls would dry our hair. It was a very hard life for our mother...wood stove, irons that went on the stove ( Everything was ironed in those days) On non-hair washing days, we had to haul the water from the copper in the outside laundry into the bath room. We lived in Windsor house...I can remember sitting on the windowsill of the 2nd story ( sure couldn't do that these days lol). Of all the places I've lived, Walhalla has always been my favourite, though seeing how modern it is now, I doubt I would ever go see it- I'll keep my memories of how it was. Thank you for this story.

Back in the late 60's I spent two weeks exploring the long tunnel and others there before they closed them down,went down an air shaft and found another tunnel deeper,and a long slanted air intake that came out on the other side of the hill,about ten people resided in Walhalla those days,sadly tourism took over,and locked all the mines up.

I used to spend many hours in the Long Tunnel Mine back in the early 70's,was a Ghost Town then,no restrictions on the mines,no Tourist Venues,no Railway in use then,and about five People living there then,top place to get away from it all then,too crowded now for my liking.

@markfryer9880 7 месяцев назад

Hi Michelle, you have really excelled yourself with this video! Like I said the other day in your trailer for this video, I visited Walhalla back in late 1975 or '76 as a primary school aged kid with my family. My father was a Civil Engineer with the SECV back when we had a State Electricity Commission! 😢 So I suspect that he had an interest in underground engineering and possibly digging for something other than brown coal. 😂 Dad is still going at 88 so I might ask him and my brother and sister what they remember of the trip to Walhalla? I described to you that it was in a steep valley and footage from your drone certainly proves that. It must have been a very cold place in winter with little opportunity to catch any Sun. As I said, great video and I think that Tourism Victoria needs to sponsor you in some way because these videos are of professional quality all over. Mark from Melbourne Australia

@goldfieldsguide 7 месяцев назад

Thank you Mark, you’re very kind 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed the video 🙂 Walhalla is such an amazing place to visit, you’ll have to head back up there for another look some time, and be sure to take the tour through the Long Tunnel Extended Gold Mine 🙂⚒👌

@daarkvaala2596 3 дня назад

@robertashworth9150 7 месяцев назад

excellent research, it was good that you acknowedged the Long Tunnel Co - by far the largest producer of gold in Walhalla, but very few traces of it can be seen now. In the 1980s attempt to reopen the mines, an attempt was made to reestablish the Long Tunnel Mine adit but the ground was too unstable, so they gave up. But the reopening of the Incline Shaft was a fantastic mining engineering achievement. It's a shame it's all filled in now.

@goldfieldsguide 7 месяцев назад

Thanks Robert, much appreciated 🙂 the work done there in the 80s is such a fascinating chapter in the history of the mines - and what an incredible accomplishment! I’d love to make a video about that down the track 📸⚒

Myself and a mate,climbed up that flue,back in the sixties,no restrictions then,yippee,trouble was when we got up to the top,there was no way down,too steep,the trip back down was worse than going up,kept slipping,had to take it very slowly.

@goldfieldsguide 5 месяцев назад

Sounds like a good adventure 😃 would have been very interesting to check it all out back then

@IanBrodie-bg1lu 5 месяцев назад

it was,did you know that the old miners bored a tunnel to divert the Thomson,further down on the river from the railway bridge,about 2k's I guess,incidentally we also walked across the railway bridge,back in the 60's,now that WAS hairy,the sleepers were rotten.@@goldfieldsguide

@trickster8635 5 месяцев назад

Myself and a mate also ventured down the inclined ventilation shaft, all the way down to the machinery chamber. This would have been around 1975 ish. We too, also walked the railway line all the way along stringers creek, over the river and along to where the river was diverted through the hill. There was no decking left on the rail bridges, so we had only the 12 inch wide steel girder to walk along. Poverty point bridge was also not capped back then and that was a scary prop as you were perched fifty odd feet above the river. This was long before Army Engineers rebuilt the decking to become a part of the Australian Alpine walking trail. The Black Diamond mine, near Mormon Town had a similar, but smaller machinery chamber at the end of a 200 foot adit. The angled drive disappeared at 45 degree's in the darkness beneath the hardwood decking under our feet.

Amazing production the research and the voice over leaves many UTube uploads lacking in even the basics indeed new sub here , hello from remote rural NSW opal miner here interesting my claims are actually on Bald Hill here Lightning Ridge , bizarre hey. May I also add the country rock here has a high level of silica hence like they can in Coober Pedy we do not live underground , its viable but shotcrete to line the workings the floor and the back and seal the lot is not economically viable . In having said that its something I would throw some money at as I mine under a 7 foot solid sandstone layer that was layed down by one of the three flooding's of the arafura sea beginning at the tip of NT and creating the inland sea some 200 or so millions years ago ., but I digress I do that. May I add @ 19:25 that is one lot of rock bolts.
