I absolutely love this. Having spent much of my working life scrambling around in and on old buildings, I can fully appreciate the sense of wonder at seeing ancient toolmarks like the ones in this mine. It really does give you a connection with the people in the past who created them. The strange sounds are also most intriguing. I've encountered a few peculiar little moments in deserted buildings that I absolutely couldn't attribute to anything - but in a deserted mine the sense of oddness is even greater. Who knows what it's all about, but it is fascinating.

Wow that sounds proper weird! I've only ever once heard something unexplainable underground and it was in a mine that had been blocked for a unknown amount of time and had been uncovered just a couple of days before. We concluded in the end as the mine was quite shallow it was sound from above ground that was somehow working it's way in. As there was a fair few of us we searched the entire mine, which wasn't that big to make sure there was nothing or nobody down there. Sure made my blood run cold when we first heard it though!

Omfg ! Best mine ever ! I loved this firstly because it's how I imagine the Roman mines by me to look, from the description the farmer, who had been down there have to me. He had been told that there was possibly someone living down there from one of his employees, so went to check it out. He told me, he went in and it was tunnels going off in all directions and pitch black, he said he went in about twenty to thirty feet before deciding if there was anyone there and they attacked him he was defenseless, plus if they were mad enough to live down there and not causing a problem leave them to it. He was getting out of there ! Secondly, this is the only mine you've been in and I felt strangely really really sad. Crazy, what's that all about ? Then you both started hearing that weird noise ! WOW ! Can't wait for the next episode.

I worked underground in southern Arizona when I was 18, the boss sent me down the main haulage to straighten track with a Jim crow tool. I was the only one in there at the time and I was midway from portal and the main shaft probably 70 feet in either direction, l just finished straightening a piece of track and was bent over unscrewing the tool off the track when I felt what I thought was my bosses hand grab my shoulder and squeeze really hard. And push slightly down like he was trying to let me know he was behind me and trying to squeeze between where I was working and the rib, the pressure released and I stood up and looked around and no one was there at all, I looked in the alcove where there explosives were stored checked the shaft station an looked down the 2 drifts that ran in opposite directions and I walked out to the portal ( more like ran) as I got to the portal my boss was stepping out of the office/ cookshack. I asked him if he had been in there and walked past me and he said no, and asked why? I told what had happened and he told me when the mine was originally operated 3 miners were working a heading and had been killed in a mine accident. And he had experienced something similar to what I had. 40 years later I still don't know what that was to this day.

I wonder if there are any records of deaths or accidents at that particular mine. really interesting and creepy. usually I feel pretty safe when im exploring because i Always carry my Colt 45 and I'm usually the most dangerous thing in any given place...that said, if that was a ghost or entity my gun would be useless except for dispatching myself in a last resort. muhahaha!

I wonder if the unusual sound is a resonance in the tunnel, excited by wind at one end. It's a very low frequently which perhaps is due to the length of the tunnel. The coffin levels with their smoother sides would be more efficient at acoustic noise generation that the jagged shapes of a blasted level. This is my hyphothis. Walking freq would be about 1hz, which would need something lime a 300m 'tube to resonate, or a 150m length if it's reflecting on a closed end. So the maths might be about right. This is just like blowing across the top of a bottle, except a very very long bottle. The primary 1hz frequency is too low to hear (human ear range is about 20hz to 16khz), but you might be picking up the higher harmonics.
