      ​@@moonbear1stUse a colon to create timestamps. Instead of typing 7.13 like you did, try 7:13
      By using a colon YT will automatically convert the numbers into a clickable/tapable timestamp that when clicked/tapped will take you directly to that time in the video. Hope that helps. Have a good day.

    Cute mouse (or pack rat?) at 7:18. Probably what the Kestrel was hoping to have for dinner.

    That dark rock and all that color from the mineralization definitely contrasted well. They were definitely following a very clear concentration of something. Thanks for making the climb to show us those mines. Looking down that last ore pass it seemed like there was a little bit of infrastructure built in there. If you don't think it connected to levels you've already seen it may be worth the trek. Maybe it connected to another adit you did not even see the entrance to.

    So cool to see you guys at a mine I've been to because I don't get to many living in Eastern Oregon. We were there in July (Frickn HOT) I checked out the ruins while my two grown sons scrambled all over that mountain side to the east.(you didn't miss anything over there). We all went in the first one with the passing tracks for the carts and were really bummed when it faced out shortly thereafter. My youngest went in the second one and followed a Fox to the end! We plead the 5th on the Silver bullet can.

    Hi Justin, those quartz veins were mental, everything you need for gold and silver, awesome.
    I say it would be a good idea to go down that man way at the end of the video just to document
    whether there is anything down there or if it's just short drifts on either side of it.
    Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

    As much as I agree with your "finish it all" methods .. not sure it would be worth returning for that pit ... at best it ties to the previous collapsed "open" stopes ... and the odds of worthwhile artifacts are near zero ...
    But, I would definitely watch it if you returned to finish that, and maybe the exploratory across the valley ...

    5:30 anytime you see a tank or something like that, especially if you want to know the date, get a close up of the seams.

    But that definitely looks like the 60's with how it was formed and everything

    Fantastic location, what a hike..
    There‘s so much pee in that ore shute that crystals of salt peter seem to be growing out of the wood.
    Interesting geology, same state I presume as the Lost Worlds Project and yet amazing difference between the geology.
    Are you still following the leftovers the Yellowstone Hotspot left or is this another geological phenomenon that has led to the mineralisation?
    Enormous veins, I think most of the blackening on the walls of the mine is from the ore they mined there.
    I wonder if they got it all out or if there still is some left but it just wasn’t economical/very dangerous in the past to mine it.

    almost bang on 7.17 there is a packrat watching you from the top of the beam just before you say rats have made it a home
    The Peregrine falcon (I think) was very cool btw
    Are you allowed to move cave ins etc,
    that bit of the mine looked viable for something if not silver.....who knows
    hmm Thats a long walk into rope down a potentially bottomed out ore pass but should you feel the urge I would definitely be interested to see that.

  • @erichaskell
    @erichaskell ปีที่แล้ว

    Having watched many of your videos, I am always surprised/interested in why quartz veins are not exploited when they are so easily accessed. The logical answer is that these veins are not profitable and if so, is continued mining just wishful? I would also guess that these veins produce just enough to keep the process going.
