I also love Jason and Ian's energy.
Thank you very much!. 😁 It is a honor and privilege to be apart of a great team and owners of the claim are awesome..

Wow! Y'all are dedicated. Great videos. Having hunted on
Mt. Antero before ('60's & '70's)... I suffered high altitude cerebral edema and had to descend to a safer altitude. If people haven't experienced high altitude issues before, they may not appreciate the amount of effort and energy required to function at that altitude level. My hat's off to y'all!!!
Rock on!!!
As a geologist and retired gold prospector, I can fully appreciate the hard work it takes to pull precious minerals from the Earth, but our work was never in such precarious locations or high altitudes. Congratulations on the exquisite finds up on Antero! Blue stones are my favorite and I wish I could come over to Buena Vista and shop! Such beauty to behold!
Love to see you all do a TV show one day great music great intro to the videos binge watching this season for sure 👍
It’s so thrilling , even when you pull out a piece of fluoride- but that huge aqua at the end - oh baby! guessing I’ll be a rock hound to the bitter end❤
Neeeed more!
MY CUZZZZ!
I'm sooooo proud of you guys!
We love ya, and God bless ya!
We love ya too cuz! wanna see you and Patti up this summer! miss ya big time! Give our love to the family and Merry Christmas!
As a geology student and prospector, I love how genuine this show is. It really captures the reality of small scale mining operations, and manages to be exciting and entertaining without playing things up too much. Keep up the good work guys!
agreed . I love watching these episodes about how they go along with mining ....dangerous & exciting .
So true!
Mount Antero, white mountain, Jones peak and Mt. Shavano was my geology thesis area for my M.S. degree at Oklahoma State.
Brought back lots of memories of three months hard work. A side benefit at the end I was in great physical shape.
Great show!! The aquamarine activity in 1968 was minor compared to what I’m seeing now.
hi please can i ask u ?
Agreed
interesting......a lot of work goes into this,,,,,this is a good show,,its all real, no drama, no fakes ,,,real people working together,,,and making things work out,,,,
G'day.
Got hooked on Prospectors back in the day, bummed when it was cancelled.
So really excited to see one of the originals from that show still going strong.
Good luck with it all guys, hope you are able to keep your family tradition going strong for generations to come.
Oh that blue in the opening scene... wow! 🙌🕊 Thoroughly addictive watch 😄
The stones are breathtaking. What a hard job but seems so rewarding!
Crystals *
Yes so hard job but interesting job n feel peaceful and tuch nature
Glad to see videos return with a new season, nicely done. I used to live in Colorado and I’m familiar with the lightning and hail.
I could watch these people doing this all day, looking forward to future episodes!!
Amazing show. This is my favorite mining show. Far better then gold rush
Wise production it's way better than discovery's usual suspects.
Camping in that beautiful countryside and prospecting on that mountain is my perfect dream, beautiful
God damn the quality of this show is National Geographic Level it’s crazy good!
Thanks Austin! Danny is AMAZING!
Mount Antero Treasures Productions can’t wait to see more from you all, makes me wish I could work alongside you guys to find those beautiful gems 💎
I have to say way better than the other series straight forward no repeating it self over and over and over
Thanks for making this series and welcoming us into your Bonanza of pretty blue finds. I feel like I need an NA meeting after watching. "C'mon Dude, just 5 more minutes".
Aquamarine mount antero very nice 👍
I'm so happy this is on YT now. I use to watch Prospectors on Weather channel. But I don't have cable anymore. I love these guys! Very hard work. Love the aquamarine!💙💎😊
To avoid the issues associated with newer excavators, buy the older ones, make sure the frame, and body are in excellent condition, replace all of the vital parts, and have the engine rebuilt and upgraded so that it produces more power. You end up with an excavator that is basically brand new, that digs like one of the newer models, but doesn't have the same issues that the newer ones do. They just run and run all day long.
Very nice to see them using almost all of the material that they pull off of the mountain. Well done.
this is like casino! you bet your day work and you migth to hit the jackpot eventually
I cant wait to see more! Gosh I wanna go help you guys, it looks like so much fun!
Oh my gosh what a life style...I love it. If I was 30 years younger that is. I am thoroughly enjoying watching your teams uncovering those blues and sharing in the joy of the find. Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm a fan.
I'm digging the music. 😅 had to do it, great video y'all.
I'm having so much fun watching these
I have no experience in rock mining, but it seems like some hardhats might be a good idea for these folks.
This is awesome, you can see when they find some pockets and everyone gets so excited its like a drug man! Chasing the good rocks lol!
I'm being selfish but I think you guys should make 2+ hr videos since you're not on the history channel anymore. I followed you guys since then and I love watching the whole process even if there isn't anything shown as in gems! Just a thought on future reference (:
Thank you all for putting out these informative and entertaining videos! I appreciate all the hard work that goes into the videos on top of your mining operations. This is what those overdone TV shows wish they could be.
I agree. I feel like I'm there with them!
These people love their job so much it's so good to see.
Thanks for sharing...😃💗💗💗
wow wow wow here we are the best Colorado mining
The goats are a nice touch.
Really nice finds. Got a new subscriber. Was fun to watch. Great video

I have been to the top of antero for the last 3 years, riding utv's,,,, and I have seen you working the mountain. I have the utmost respect for all of you...and I wish you the best of luck....and I hope you make billions !!!!!

Aquamarines are one of my favorite gemstones. I always love watching ya'll dig up the pretty blue.

Thank You for sharing👍

Their knowledge of the various rocks and how to looks for signs really fascinates me
They are in the business...very easy to learn....they own the mine otherwise couldn't dig there.
Love your show! My 3 small boys and I really enjoy watching you find Aquamarine. Deep inside every little boy and girl is the dream of finding treasure. Good job guys!
I can't tell you how happy I am to finally view this long awaited 3rd episode.... It appears that operations are goin well... Keep em comin Craig and so glad to see that Tracie has recuperated from her accident so well... She looks great! You guys are doin an awesome job and I'll be watching for future episodes... 👀 Greetings from Canada and I wish y'all good luck in your upcoming endeavors...
😉 ✌
Fantastic series.
I love your show! So happy to find new episodes. I really hope you keep this going. I wish though you would explain more about some of the mineral terms so I could be on your level a bit but you really have made prospecting look like the ultimate adventure!
The work is daunting they deserve every cent they make!
Just found your chanel im addicted
I'm addicted. When I come from Cape Town to visit Colorado I'm going to have to come to the store and volunteer my services as free labour for a week
Great stuff guys, keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. And in the words or Will I Am....You can go hard or you can go home❤ ❤❤
im glad to see a new entry in this series. it's by far one of the best quality real docs you will see. Wish there was less times between episodes, I've been eagerly anticipating this one.
Awesome! I'm glad you guys are keeping on with the show. I was honestly bummed when I saw there were only the two pilot episodes a while back. If you keep making 'em we'll keep watching 'em. Keep up the good work.
Sooo.. I'm a Colorado boy. Born march 27, 1988... I'm an aquamarine stone aries... I'm extremely addicted to this show already.
Do what u love. Love what ya dids.

Gutentag
Good Job Chad, you guys are killing it up there. Great to see good things happing to good people. Take care, Woody.
As someone who actively prospects and digs myself, its such an awesome things to see the THRILL that Ian and Jason had! Ive felt the same excitement at my Amethyst dig, its super relateable. Watching those beauties roll out I felt like I was there with them! Keep it up Ian and Jason! Hope yall visit MT sometime soon!
love their enthusiasm
amazing production value from such a small team! i love this content and cant wait to see another episode!
Best show ever! Lets do this!!!
Thank you 🙏 so much for this video not only it’s educational but also amazing 😉 knowledgeable keep on mining and finding those beautiful 💎 gems
hola
I just saw a Steeler Jersey !!! 🤩. I’m from Pittsburgh. Go Steelers !!!!! I come to Colroado every June thru October. Mom has a summer home in Black Hawk. I’ve been rock Hounding for 4 years now and my Ultimate Bucket List is searching for Aqua on Mt. Antero !!! Love ❤️ your show !
The guy in the orange hoodie reminds me of Walter White from breaking bad with the way he looks and talk.
Y’all are doing such a great job with these shows. Very good production. Again. Keepum coming. Thanks
Jeweler here, Love your show, it's quite nice to see some of what it takes to give us those beautiful gems.
I love how excited everyone gets and getting to see the Aqua come thru with them
Fantastic series, Stunning stones, I'm Daniel from the State of Espírito Santo in Brazil, there are many huge aquamarines specimens here, in a mountain called Pedra da Onça in Itarana city, in this mountain have been extracted over two tousand kilos, but the biggest one in the wolrd are discovered in the State of Minas Gerais in Brazil too.
Congratulations guys!
The production quality on this series is just astounding. Keep it up!
As a wise donkey once said “I like that boulda, that’s a nice bouldaaa”
Good gemstone,I like your videos.
Looks amazing dudes ✌️wish I could join u lot up there
As a viewer who is interested in crystals, gems, and mining, I love to see what you are doing here, showing the people how you find and collect these beautiful aquamarines but I would love to see more of the cleanup. This is the really exciting part :D. I would also love to see more of the gems and how you process them and how they are turned from rough stones into pieces of jewelry.
Keep going and dig on :D
Really enjoy your videos.
This is my favorite show on TH-cam! Love how honest they are with the work that goes into mining by hand. I used to mine fire agate at a private spot every weekend just for fun. That was extreme heat in AZ so watching this is like polar opposite for weather 😂
Hey Tim I actually live in Arizona as well and would love to go gem hunting. I DO NOT want your secret spot lol but maybe some pointers or whereabouts to look around the Phoenix area? Thank you!
Love your videos
The baking a cake analogy is how I became in live with mineralogy
For that kind of road my ball will going deep inside, salute..,.
Beryl gemstones and tourmaline have always been my most favorite gemstones for their natural tall faceted structure. Natural has always looked better to me. I have a nice display specimen of Aquamarine and Heliodor on Mica in my collection.
It would be a dream come true for me to be up there and prospect with these guys
Dreams are meant to be lived
@@davidbohon2091 yes they are :)

응원합니다 🎉🎉🎉
Why dont you'se use a pressure washer all you need is an old storage container take the doors off weld that shut cut a big hole in the roof so it fills with the rain or snow just a thought.👍👍✌👊👊 from Dundee Scotland.
42:52 looks like an exact replica of a scene from Breaking Bad, though the product looks similar "Look at the shards, dawg!!!", it is different. But, the visual is almost EXACTLY the same. Meth/Aquamarine, fine line, lol. But, great series, can't wait for each episode. So if we're addicted thru the screen, I can only imagine the levels of adrenalin involved firsthand! Be careful, have fun, get rich! Good luck to all of yr crew!
hahah! we get that ALLOT! Its the real deal aqua!!! Best street quality around!!!
@@mountanterotreasuresproduc1895 lmao ❤it! Great show guys, keep up the awesome work!💪
I remember seeing y'all on that show that aired on the weather channel. I was wondering if that family of people from the show is still out there looking for gem's. I had no doubt that y'all would still be working the mountain because of your family background. Nice to see you got some good diggers working for you and the wife
Wow good thinking to haul all that material down. Some huge chunks and beautiful quality.
Don't ever stop love watching this type of stuff gem fossicking and prospecting is the most fun you could possibly have with your pants on man I love it
This series is amazing, I'll definitely be watching for the next episode! Just wanna thank you for sharing it with all of us, and to wish you all the best of luck!
It is really cool to see how these small mining operations work! I do a lot of faceting so it is really cool to see where my rough stones come from!
Hello from Pittsburgh PA!
Go Steelers!
@@mountanterotreasuresproduc1895 -- Im not a fan, but thank you
Great job ladies and gents! Nice finds!
WOOT WOOT!!!! AWESOMENESS!!!
It truly makes me happy to get that nice email notification that another great video just got released from you all. Such great quality content! sometimes things happen, not too much drama and you just keep at it, I really like that you show the success alongside the minor setbacks that happen 10/10 stars
This series has become hyped so quick for me. Your enthousiasm is great! Almost makes me want to try it haha!
Wicked show guys! I’m excited every time I see there is a new episode. I just love it!
I check often for new episodes hope to make the premier
It's good to see dogg the bounty hunter out there working again.
What amazing adventures! I don't think I could find the nerve to drive up those mountains.
