    While I don't consider myself a paranoid person, I think I might have at least worn a dust mask if not a respirator once I got inside the structures.

    Awesome tour man, my dad worked that mine in his 20's and we still go up to pick through the tailings piles. This was processing long strand asbestos not the dangerous type.

      The non dangerous type 😂 chrysotile is just as dangerous. Anyone who goes there is bonkers, if the asbestos doesn’t get and thats unlikely, then the bird shit will. A mask is a good start but you should consider the contamination to your clothes, shoes, hair, then spreading that contamination to your car or taking it home for others to breathe in. Type 5/6 coveralls. Good luck!

      If you have ever spent significant time in a house built before the 80s you have inhaled plenty of asbestos fibers. Don't think about it too hard.

    its all above ground. you obviously have no idea what kind of place you walked into. You should not have been breathing any dust you kicked up and should have had a mask on. My father and many of my friends fathers worked there and many of them died from cancer from that place....

      I knew the risk I was taking going there. Luckily it had rained earlier in the day so the dust outside was minimal.
      I did have my shirt covering my face most of the time while inside.
      the only part I thought might have gone underground was the one conveyer because it seems to keep going.
      I’m sorry to hear about your father and your friends fathers.

      The mine was shut down because the power cost to run it outweighed the material produced. EPA had not labeled it a hazard until the late 90's well over 10 years after it shut down.

    You are the only person on TH-cam that’s ever made it into that place. I live about an hour from there and really want to explore the whole complex. My biggest fear, besides cancer, is the caretaker that lives on site. Not sure if he’s dangerous or not, but a little scared to risk it. Thank you for the video man, one of the greatest urbex videos from Vermont.

      There are many different types of asbestos and the type they were processing here wasn’t the harmful kind.
