meMiner You’re welcome. I really appreciate your videos. There are a lot on rocks and minerals on here, but yours are detailed and show me what I want to see. You do a spectacular job!
ARR Matte you found the PYRITE STASH Thanks for another great show, and thanks for bringing us along I appreciate and learn so much from your adventures.
Thank You for a nice marble mountain trip. And I also enjoyed all the pyrite findings. I sent a large pyrite vein to laboratories in Holland. And it contains many ppm of gold :-) The only cemetery I have visited in the US, was Sims, a ghost town and coal mine in North Dakota. Because my relatives (Hoovestol) lived there from the 1880's. And I found the grave of Peder and Petrine Hoovestol. "It's very sad to see so many children in the graveyard you visited.
What an interesting video. I enjoyed seeing the church an cemetery. All those young people passing sure reminded me of how grateful I am to have a healthy an ~getting older~ family. Thanks for sharing your adventures. You're awesome!!
How somber does it feel in old cemeteries. Especially amongst the young. Makes us appreciate what we have a bit more. Thanks for sharing man, beautiful pyrites too dude! Just beautiful!
Empathy is one of the greatest character traits one could have. Well done meMiner, much respect. Ooooh...and that Pyrite, wow...lol. Not just for kids. lol
I would have kept that little pink rock that you held in first part of your video, seeing all those rocks just makes me think of a horn of plenty, we here in Ontario find treasures just by sifting through some old quarries, yet we look for treasures that are mass produced, materialism. Death is not sadness, it should be a happy remembrance of the person who has lived they have gone to find their maker/God, we do not know what death will bring us, I at least hope that it will be a happy event when I pass through the gates of heaven. A song that is special to me ** I am on my way to heaven ** such a joy to sing. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing great video and wow oh so young souls in that pretty place measles may be a factor but so sad 😢 on another note your videos are so much clearer viewing great job great camera CHEERS
I tried to match up some of the dates with known pandemics and they seemed to match up, especially the Russian Influenza and Spanish Flu. This was a remote location and yet they seemed to be victims of these worldwide pandemics. Also, they did not have the medical understanding back then and if you believe it would sometimes bleed the sick people as an attempted cure. Awful.
Nice marble quarry, so bright and white. Different shades of stone with the pyrite and other minerals, embedded in the stone. The old cemetery so many so young 😢 influenza, small pox, measles took so many. Thank you for sharing.
It was bright white and hot from the sun reflecting on the rocks in the mine. Things were difficult and life was typically short for the original settlers.
Very nice quarry. Bet that was a blast getting to run around in there for th he day. The cemetery had some beautiful headstones. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Hey its Jason from the Trip, it was nice getting to meet you after having followed and watched all your videos. P.S. While difficult, I did end up splitting up that large rock and etching out the nice cubic specimens.... will be a perfect reminder of a good trip. Cheers Jason
i guess im randomly asking but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the login password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Arlo Saul I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
I also stop by those 19th Century graves and can't help wonder how they looked like or sounded like, but, yeah, the morose sometimes is a wake-up call to me at least when I feel like complaining. Those people lost young children one after another in a century that although was just over 120 years ago, but was really behind in medical care. RIP & respects to those folk from me too. Thanks meMiner for this video.
It was also a really hot day. I did not take my dog Daisy along as she would have fried. The sun on the white rock was unbelievable. I feel sorry for the workers there who are outside in the summer.
I heard that their was opal around where im at and lots of gold .I have not found any yet but I'm looking.i stay around bass lake california. Have a great day.
You are centered in a great spot. Lots of info online but here is one reference to get you started, with many "x marks the spot" to check out: www.mindat.org/loc-23537.html
Pretty awesome video very white there lol pyrite is a cool mineral to collect I have found real nice pieces and cubed on the railroad tracks in the granite rock Also some pretty nice garnets I find really nice pieces in slate stone with theres another mineral that can look like pyrite but i can't remember the name got a brain fart lol it's the gold to grayish mineral that dissolves in the air and light but found some nice big mushroom looking pieces the size of a softball lol I can't think of that mineral I'm sure you no what I'm talking about anyways great video brother thanks for sharing
Nope. The only way to get into this and other active mines are to be with a club - with insurance, have the necessary safety gear and field trip personnel to keep everybody safe (stop people from doing dumb things). For sure it might be a liability thing, but could also be a government regulation.
WOW! What a marble mine - my idea of Treasure Heaven - I'm always looking for white and or sparkly things for the garden! And sad - being I'm suffering from Megga Flu myself, I do wonder how those poor souls survived such things without Kleenex or lemons and honey, even. RIP - Very nice video 😎
I thought you were about to start filming a Sci Fi movie there for a minute 😆 What a cool place to get access to. We had an influenza pandemic here in NZ in 1918, killed about 9000 people in about 3months, terrible and very sad as it would have been in Canada. Feel blessed to have access to good healthcare in our day for sure.
Rob Rabbit; it is somewhat ironic that in the present Coronavirus pandemic, New Zealand did very well, you wrote that two years back probably little knowing New Zealand would do so well a 102 years later.
@@meteoriter1647 yes strange indeed but easier for us here with a smaller population and the ability to shut international flights out, breaks my heart what has happened in the rest of the world but humans being what we are it's not surprising this is happening. Three years ago I was working for a manufacturing jewellers and I started buying Silver bullion and coins (not because I'm a greedy hoarder) and my work colleagues commented on it being a bit silly, why bother with Silver, it'll never go up much, my reply was because " when something bad happens in the world again and it will and I'm in need, I'll have this silver as a little bit of a fallback" they still thought I was silly. So I now work for myself as a jeweller, silver has gone from $15 US an ounce to $26(approx) an ounce and I dont have to buy Sterling Silver and can make my own, saving a lot of Dosh😉 But I was the silly one🙄 Rock and mineral collecting is so similar, people called us silly three plus years ago and now its becoming so popular again to the point people can make real good living from it😄
@@robrabbit2773; indeed I agree, some people think rock-hounding is silly but in fact it has a holistic healing thing about it - for example I was speaking to this guy not too long ago about how people are so afraid of asbestos and I said you can't believe how beautiful tremolite is (it is one form of asbestos) and it makes for gems when you can find a clear piece of it and get to facet it, so green, can you believe what he said, he replied and so is crystal meth, a hurtful remark I thought. We rock-hounds speak from a different world, I appreciate nature and attribute the beauty to a creative power. Nature, God, whatever one chooses to call it. When I hold a clear crystal, best example being Cerussite I feel mesmerized by the cloudy-based crystals with very high refractive index towards their ends, simple-minded, superficial (key word, do you agree?) people might think we bunch are, but I am at that instant of holding that crystal outside of my selfish thoughts and in awe of that masterpiece. So I don't care what people say, you can't please everyone in any case, finally I had the last say, I said, did you also know that when tremolite is further metamorphosed it becomes jade? And everyone knows how valuable jade is. Did he care, I don't think so, but should I care if he cared or not? So in short, mineral collecting also has a philosophical quality to it as well, how the mundane and perhaps harmful asbestos can be transformed into a gem, much like a bad person can become a good person if they were to discipline and work on themselves. So my thought process goes. As the proverbial saying goes, he who laughs last, laughs best. The coronavirus pandemic has made some people come to their senses, take a step back and appreciate that what might appear simple is on a higher plane of thought very noble.
Ok, first squint one eye..adjust your cowboy hat.hunker down a bit and insert an older southern draw..."There's gold in them their hills".. lol..ok sounded better in my head..love me some fools gold ..great video!
Years ago I got some pyrite and collected it fresh from a mine set it next to a pile of wood when I got home it was raining the next day was sunny and saw smoke the pyrite started the wood pile burning... no idea how but it did. We got it out easy enough but the pyrite was smoking in the rock and the smell it was putting off would choke you, like car battery. Careful how you store them.
Pyrite is from the Greek word "pyr" which means “fire.” They called it that because you could get a hot spark to start a fire if you strike it with steel. However, I have never heard of spontaneous combustion. There must have been something else associated with your samples that got hot when exposed to air. The stink could have been sulfur in the pyrite.
th-cam.com/video/qo9Zwhvg5lE/w-d-xo.html. Found this example on YT a lot like what happened to us 40 years ago nut image the rocks placed next to wood pile dead grass etc.
That is one of the things that the marble from this mine is used for. The same company has marble mines elsewhere that are for things like toothpaste. If you cannot grow it, you have to mine it...
Pyrites are fairly common anywhere that fluids moved through bedrock. I have found pyrites in the old rock dumps at most abandoned mine sites: Iron, copper, marble, etc. However, for me, the best cubic pyrites have been in sedimentary rocks such as shales.
Hey im interested in finding some pyrite. I live in Peterborough ontario. I have looked online but cant pin point a spot to start searching. Can you send me in the right direction?
More difficult to find good cubic. I like it too. Best place I know is Temagami, which is about a 5 hour drive for you. I am sure there closer places that I am unaware.
My email is meminer@gmail.com It is difficult to ID a mineral from a picture. I usually direct people to the search function at mindat.org where you can enter what you know about the mineral and it will provide suggestions with pictures. ie. it is easier to narrow down the options based on location, hardness, etc and then look at pictures, rather than the other way around.
I bragged about my gold nuggets in elementary school on show and tell day at bransford elementary Fairfield Ca. That was a very sad ending simply because the age of the little ones
Explorer Martin Frobisher found what he thought was gold ore on one of his trips across the Atlantic and brought back to England a shipload of worthless iron pyrite ('fool's gold'). Whoops. ;-)
Cherie Monique I know what he was saying. He’s still a kid too! It’s nice to still have childlike wonder, and what better way to nurture that than going rock hounding!
It was end of day and I had been baking in the sun, including the walk to the bottom of the quarry. Last thing I wanted to do was get the sledge. It is there for the next guy...
Pandemics are a horrible thing, in the past the flu pandemics would completely destroy communities and strangely they would be fatal to some generations but not others, so sad when children pass before they have really experienced life. I didn't see one marble, not even any of the ones you've lost.
meMiner Come on Greig, we all know there is no cure for common cold, or influenza the germs are metamorphic , you can't cure something that keeps changing.
Please dont get me wrong, I am not complaining or criticizing. But if you could would you make sure your video sound level is at least the same as the intro level. We can always turn the level down but when you are already at max level and still cant hear what your saying, well, sometimes I just skip the rest of the video and go on to another.
My 95yearold dad called tonite,I told him about your video's, how much fun they are,even your visit to the cemetery, thanks again
My Dad would have been the same age as yours. He never expected to survive flying Mosquitos in WW2, so every day afterwards to 92 was a bonus to him.

I didn't feel right putting this comment with my other one.

Another great video. I also like to see old graves and see how long people lived during that time period. It can be quite sad though.
I used to find pyrite as a kid, I think that is what first got me into rock hounding. This stuff you found is outstanding.
For me it was mica, but probably for the same reasons - easy to collect and pretty to look at. ;-)
Love that the old graves are still taken care of!!!
One of the better kept spots that I have seen. The church was also in really good shape. Kudos to that community.

I love pyrite and wish I could find samples that beautifull!
Pyrite is not uncommon. Google the name of your area and "pyrite mineral". You might be surprised by finding a place you can collect.
Looked like a fun day !!!!
It was also a really hot day. I did not take my dog Daisy along as she would have fried. The sun on the white rock was unbelievable. I feel sorry for the workers there who are outside in the summer.
Sweet adventure for rocks some nice looking pieces and area the graveyard is sad but glad to see it is kept up as a lot are not now a days
Thanks for dropping by and your nice comment. It means a lot.
Not that cemeteries are fun,but that life is to be appreciated.
Exactly right!
So did you have to pay for anything taken from the mine? Such beautiful shots of the white walls against the sky...
There was no charge, but had to be a member of a rock and mineral club on a prearranged tour.
superbe location , vvery unique
Interesting, alot of waste will they crush it up for something useful? Glad you knowyour minerals
The piles were the waste rock. They are still mining in the pit for better quality rock.
My dad was in WW2, came back with malaria also it stays in you,I ha e to watch for valley fever when hounding,Ive had it.
Is their any gold in any of those specimen?
I found one rock off camera that I want to test further. It sure seemed to contain VG along a narrow vein of quartz.
I heard that their was opal around where im at and lots of gold .I have not found any yet but I'm looking.i stay around bass lake california. Have a great day.

ORPIMENT? Sometimes it can be associated with Red Realgar crystals. Both contain arsenic, so be sure to wash up after handling them...
That fun then sad them had a short life now have peace thanks!!
It must have been awful to see the young ones gets sick and not recover. Sometimes life is very unfair.
Those mines are beautiful..
Interesting spot, for sure.
By chance is it Open to public by appointment
Nope. The only way to get into this and other active mines are to be with a club - with insurance, have the necessary safety gear and field trip personnel to keep everybody safe (stop people from doing dumb things). For sure it might be a liability thing, but could also be a government regulation.

Good idea.

Marble is used as a base in high end plaster wall applications in custom homes here . It polishes up real nice .but at a heavy instillation price.
That is one of the things that the marble from this mine is used for. The same company has marble mines elsewhere that are for things like toothpaste. If you cannot grow it, you have to mine it...

I have looked in vugs in limestone for galena and crystals of calcite, fluorite, etc. Still, pyrite is possible.
grab a bug chunk that already has pyrite then etch the entire rock with acid to get good cubes
It would take quite a bit of acid but would be fun. ;-)
