  • The new year brings new discoveries in the Yankee Boy Mine. We find a new shaft and a new ore pass in the 2800 level as well as some awesome artifacts!
    This is a fast paced and exciting Mine Exploration Channel. We have been in hundreds of abandoned mines in Canada, United States and Mexico. Recently we have purchased our own abandoned mine the Yankee Boy Mine! We are rehabilitating the mine so the public can explore an abandoned mine for themselves safely. Join us underground and we will show you things no human has seen for decades! A fast paced, exciting channel that will not bore you. Visit our website exploringabandonedmines.com for directions to our mine, exciting pictures and merch.
    For more information on the history of the Yankee Boy Mine go to minfile.gov.bc.ca/summary.asp...
    Visit our mine exploringabandonedmines.com
    Mines are being filled in, demolished, and/or collapsing at an alarming rate, so it is crucial to document them and save these artifacts while it is still possible.
    This is all about mining and mining exploration. We have produced over 350 videos for you to enjoy. Join us for our adventures as we go deep underground into historic abandoned hard rock Gold, Silver and Copper mines. We relive the Prospecting, Gold Rush days, going back in history with every expedition. Visiting abandoned and forgotten places, climbing down mine shafts into dangerous mines, finding treasures, seeing antique heavy equipment such as ore carts, crushers, milling machines, ball mills, explosives and other mining equipment.
    We have a new website site exploringabandonedmines.com once there you can see how the mine is doing, support the channel and buy merch, we have stickers, hats, hoodies, t shirts and mugs. New items being added.

    You two are so amazing. Sharon is a good partner with you Frank. I worry about you wit all the slippery rocks. Be careful my friends. Happy New Year my favorite mine people. God Bless and watch over you.

      The rocks are not too slippery...some are loose and sharp though!

      I try not to worry too much or feel anxious for them, I have to keep in mind they know what they're doing. Amazing miners, they are! Amazing historians, too!

    Hey Frank, something that might be nice for the museum and/or videos is a 3D model of the mine shafts. I think it would end up looking a lot like an aluminum casting of ant tunnels, but longer.

    • @exploringabandonedmines
      @exploringabandonedmines  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      That would be a cool idea but I have no idea how we would do it!

      You could possibly use a drone with liDar or similar system. Just don't know how well they'd fly underground

      @musicofnewfoundlandlabrado2080 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I've seen videos of people using their iPhones to create 3d mine models. The channel Ghost Town Living has a video or two showing this.

    I have been watching your channel for like 4 years. It is so awesome. You done know how much I would love to go into your mine. But I know it won't ever happen. In 1993 I was at work I was a wrecker driver. An I went out on a call , There was lot of ice an snow. I got a pick-up out of the center of the hwy. A semi top a hill an seen my red lights he jack knife his trailer. The trailer hit the pick-up an smashed me between it an the wrecker drug me 213 feet down the hwy. I lost both my legs above the knees. Been in a wheelchair from age 29. I am 60 years old now. Your channel is great. I know I well never be able to get in it. I live in Central Missouri. Be careful.

    the way things are nowdays you should make yourselves a bunker in that mine and then you two could stay safe and sound....miss your videos of all the mines, but gods speed to both of you..

  • @puppyduppy9811
    @puppyduppy9811 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I’ve been subscribed to your channel since2015 , the first thing I ever subscribed to , I tried to lure you down here long ago , Bhutto all we got is anthracite coal mines, one mine the Maple hill colliery extracted 29 million tons in the late 1800’s , there is a few explorers but there not in your league and they keep the name of the mine a secret , there longest video is 15 min , and the one dude always conviently forgets his rope or his flashlight , thanks for keeping it real Frank the truth and facts in your videos will keep educating people about these places for centuries, , they also never remove an artifact , they disintegrate never to be seen again, I remember your dog also enjoy your retirementFrank👍☠️

    When you get your house finished you should build a bed and breakfast with 3-4 rooms for people that come from far away and need a place to stay for a night or two. I am from Texas so if I come will definitely need a room for a day or two. Happy new years to the both of you.

    Wonderful photos, thank you Sharon. I wonder how much more there is to the Yankee Boy? Do you say a mine is a he or a she? Boats/ships are always she, not sure about mines though 😂 Am I the only one that doesn't mind rats? Had a pet rat once. They're very intelligent. Sorry, getting sidetracked! I really hope 2024 is a truly wonderful & productive year for you both. Take care & stay safe. MUST get to Canada 🇨🇦 one day & come and say Hi. 😃 xx
