I have a broken hypothesis about the first mine. As you probably know better than I do, iron has several oxidation states that have different colors. I think the greenish rock contains iron that is less oxidized than the reddish rock. The spoils on the floor might be more red because it is more broken up so there is more surface area exposed to air so a faster oxidation reaction than the flat and mostly unbroken walls. So walls only had time to get to the green state and the spoils more red state. A less likely explanation maybe is there was a long fissure in the rock which the miners followed. That might also explain the odd placement of the entrance. Just armchair sciencing in unfamiliar knowledge areas so don't take me too seriously.

Is very nice straight adit. Stacked rock work instead of the labor of hauling it out is called gobbing. The end of a mine is called the face just in case anyone wanted to know.

So that GBH 😊 is that worth checking out at some point by sending a camera down there maybe ?? That first mine got me confused with all that backfill on the floor like what were they encountering there? Big Up Rowan for his history on the mines he deserves a medal 🥇 cause he knows his mining history and I find it ever so interesting to hear 🙌🏻🙌🏻

If it weren't for the back fill on the floor, i wouldn't go in that kind of mine. I've one rule above all. No echo, no mine. Never got caught in one, but i explored a mine once figured no echo was present some 10ish meters in from the first turn to the right and i got out. A month later i learned from the owner that the ceiling had collapsed in that section nearly completely sealing it to the top.

@zworm2 10 месяцев назад

Always enjoy the explorations! So, when a miner came to work at the mine you visited today, what would they see? Buildings? Just a hole in the rock? What kind of infrastructure supported the mining activity? Thanks

15:46 funny thing is, even tho the end is clearly different, the style of digging is the same. I'm wondering if perhaps this isn't a clandestine mining operation in a different portion and they used this line to fill up and hide the spoils. That would explain why there's no wheel ruts... if you keep filling over them, you can't see them. Is the area fully accounted for other holes? I know, crazy idea, but i've seen crazier mines. It would also explain why the walls are covered, but the spoils aren't. IF, this was done from the face of the mine outwards, then the oldest spoils would be equally covered or at least towards that. But those are fresh. All those chips are clean with only some water action on them.
