  • Exploring an old mine to look at some old pumping gear valves and see how far we could get further on. Obviously dont try doing this if you havnt got a clue what your doing.
    This is the non music edition due to popular demand. The original is still online. if you prefer it its here: • Exploring a huge hole ...
    And if you one to see other mining videos check out my other videos, i only have a few so far. My favouirte is this one • Old Wheel Jane. Blue w...
    Cheers

    Hey, this really was a good video! ... without the loud, distracting soundtrack.

      that was exactly what I thought, the last one I watched was spoilt by it, would have preferred to hear them talking and the silence of the mine.

    Great video guys, Is that Hawkes shaft with the pipework in?

    • @BenoCam
      @BenoCam  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes it is. It used to be open but now has a large concrete slab over it and only accessible from going down a nearby shaft in the woods and walking too underground . The one we use for access escaped the capping program as it’s so difficult to get concrete near I think !

      Well, you said they used their brains. So I'm assuming to mean with telekinesis, also known as psychokinesis, is the ability to move things with your mind.
      Still, I think that's rubbish.

    What an incredible mine to find - looks like the water level is quite variable. why is that?

    • @BenoCam
      @BenoCam  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      this mine is connected to the county adit so slowly drains after no rainfall for a bit

      Of course. There’s a bar which unbolts which we always put back in. It’s in our interest... if a kid falls down and dies they will concrete this and many others like it over.

    Must of been some work to dig that shaft out even if they did blast

    What did they mine there?

    • @LindaTCornwall
      @LindaTCornwall 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Tin, most of the mines in Cornwall are tin. It is famous for it.... dating back to the bronze age. Though there were a few Zinc and lead mines.

    • @NathanWantsFreedom
      @NathanWantsFreedom 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Just incase you are still interested, they are stalactites.. its where a very slow drip of water has flown down from the earth and solidified with the local minerals in it. they come in many colours depending on what minerals are in the earth

    @jbstandsforjasonborne3847 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like to think
    If this was a mine
    Then the miners must've been really stupid
    The first rule is dont dig straight down

    Explore? Mines had blueprints.
    I guess it was easier to enter
    without looking for paperwork.

    • @BenoCam
      @BenoCam  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The mine plans were quite vague and also over 100 years old so how they left it is not what it is like now. I do have copies of the mine plans of this area if they are of interest as they available from the county records office.

    Crossing those gaping voids, without a lick of safety gear, strikes me a plain foolish. Trusting your weight to some rusty pipe...
