- 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!
Thanks for sharing new progress and being able to see new parts of your mine.cant wait to see progress on your new home .merry Christmas and happy new year to u both.
Thanks for being such good friends
Especially NOW since they've "retired" from mine exploring!
That was great, Frank.
Thanks for the update. Wow, you 2 have been busy.
You 2 are great together.
Pete Australia 🇦🇺
Happy new year you guys and stay safe.
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.
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
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.
Thank you exiting gona get there some day peace 💚
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..
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👍☠️
You two have come a loooong way cleaning out the Yankee Boy! WOW!
It was great hearing from Sharon, too, Frank!
Happy New Year!
Everything coming together, the house, finding new/old holes to empty out
Take care, see ya next week.
The Yankee Boy seems to provide a surprise every few months! That's great for you and for us visitors too! Best to you both for a great 2024 and I'll look forward to new updates as you make further progress. "Retired" doesn't mean you're idle, that's for sure! Stay safe!!❤👍

Yes, thank you
Had to pause to say
I love the photos! Wow! Some very interesting shots! Thank you, love your channel. Now, on with the video!
Awesome finds, keep them coming. There is no retirement, just all Saturdays leisure works. Sharon is on working gal, keeps you on your toes. Lots accomplished to this point, now to clean things up a bit furthering the inside of Yankee Boy, cool.
That mine keeps surprising me wow, a lot off work too do for the 2 off you guys, have a great 20024 and stay safe out there Frank and Sharon.
Best wishes for the New Year. ...Thank you for all the entertainment in 2023, looking forward to more in 2024. ... Looking good guys', I can tell Y'all been working hard. ... Take care and stay safe! ⛏⚒⛏
Edit; You're a pretty good light shovel operator Frank, I swung a pretty mean light shovel in my day, Lol. If we only had a dime for each shovel load, eh.
Happy new year!
CRAZY !! that's very exciting to make a discovery like that.
Happy New Year guys hope it's a good year for you both Sharon and Frank 👍
Thanks so much
Damn good exercise for an old guy!
❤Happy New Year Frank and Sharon, so glad for the updates
Happy new year!
Frank If I where only closer to you I would be right there working with you to clear it out.
Thanks Frank I enjoy the shows and work you put out for us all to watch . Seems like you also enjoyed it rock on .
Rock on!
Have watched MOST of you r previous video's. i just bypass the re-uploads.
Enjoy your retirement!
You Are One of the Few who were able to achieve Your dreams!
God Bless! 💪
Lots of newer subscribers haven't seen the older ones.
Frank , I think that you practically invented the shovel man , you are definitely a shoveling champion in my book . And I love to shovel also. Happy shoveling from Schuylkill county Pennsylvania👍💪☠️
Love to come visit. For a guy in my condition it would be VERY Cool to be able to rope down and the walk out. Happy New Years and Merry Christmas!
I really think you should call it the "Ron" adit instead of the 2800. Has a much nicer ring to it.
Happy New Year Frank and Sharon . All the best for the new year guys...
Awesome news , Great to see things coming along and a Happy New Year to ya ! 💥☠️
Happy New Year! You guys are working so hard. Nice progress!
Thanks for the great update. I highly doubt you guys are going to be sitting around and watching the boob tube in your retirement!
Happy New Year Franklin & Sharon ...Cool discovery
Happy new year!
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.
He should build a secret tunnel from his house to the Yankme boy
Sharon says it is enough work cleaning up after me!
Think there will be a miners bunkhouse a hostel if you will! Down on the mountain side and a tram with a bucket for guest to hop in to be ran to an from the mine! 😝😂🤣 ✌️
Happy new year friend from Scotland please keep the great videos coming 😊
Thanks again for your time making the video watching from Reno NV
Our pleasure!
🎉🥳 Happy New Year to you both 🥳🎉
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
Since it is a boy it has to be a he!
Good evening from Southeast South Dakota
I’m getting nervous 😮
Happy New Years! 🎉 Great to see the update.. thank you for sharing.

Happy new year!
Excellent work as usual guys! (~_^)-b
Glad you enjoyed it!
Happy New Year! 👍👍 Are you going to create and post a map of the mine one day?
We have shown the mine plan in many of our older videos of the Yankee Boy.
Well I will have to find that video, thx 🇨🇦@@exploringabandonedmines
Looking good! u2!
Your noses must be just full of dust haha looks like fun! I’m tempted to grab a shovel and head up from Vancouver!
You should!
FRANKS A HOMEBOY , DONT KUCK WITH FRANK..... ALL MY LOVE FROM NEW MEX...WHY DO I THINK YOUR DOING the CAMERA GIRL LOL LOL
your rock that fell down looks like it came off the rib at 12:33 .
You sure it wasn’t Sharon’s rock? 🤔🤷♂️😂🤣
👍 Cool!
this is my ,go to video, , what a fun mad house where is the vein , what a hoot ,EXCUSE ME ,but i would love to do this
Volunteers aren’t turned away but encouraged ! 😆😂
Its looking good at the Yankee Boy. I cant wait to check out the progress. Any itch to check out the end of 2600 yet?
I think about it sometimes...it is a little scarry as you know!
Frank you should check out amazing Pennsylvania it’s a you tuber that is exploring all of the anthracite mines , you would like it, he might be crazier than you , since your scared of coal mines☹️👍
They are a lot more dangerous than hard rock mines!
Gotta lot of electrical with lights to install
The power is for drills and a rock hammer.
CAT wheel barrow power!
We love anything painted Yellow!
The content is great but the volume differences are jarring.
That is a problem with the go pro, regular camera and the mic
⛏⛏⛏⛏⛏🪔🪔🪔❤❤❤
How did you find a land for sale with a mine on it ? I wanted to immigrate to the US to buy a patented mining claim and live there but i'm never going to meet all the criteria for immigrating, too complicated for me.
There are lots of abandoned mines in BC!
Can I buy a rock from the Yankee Boy mine?
Sure but you will have to come and pick it out!
Come on now. Did ya have to kick the rat ? Could have made her a pet
Nobody wants a stinky rat for a pet!
Definitely would love to come and see your mine and do the tour. Been watching you for years. Great job to the both of you. Absolutely amazing work and dedication.❤ Writing you from the Philippines, where I live.
Maybe one day!
