Your very welcome 🙏 my friend.

[@silasakron4692]

Greetings from the American West. It's a riveting deal watching you all delve into such familiar looking Victorian underground, yet it's peppered with top-shelf, uniquely British objects... like some kind of alternate dimension to my eyes. That last ore car was special, (as you know) intact wooden cars in their original workings are incredibly rare now. Looks far older than anything we'd ever encounter here since our hardrock escapades began in this part of the country around the 1870s or so. Your passion for history and adventure is palpable, keep up the good work!

[@silasakron4692]

I should note there was earlier development in the West of course, but where I, myself reside didn't see much boom until the 1870s or thereabouts.

[@johnterry8890]

I am nearly 5,000 miles from you here in Texas and am fully speechless. Such an amazing explore. Congratulations gentlemen. Thank you for braving the elements and landscape to bring this to us. Wish I was along with you physically but virtually will certainly do! LETS GET TO THAT 10K SUBSCRIBERS! Well deserved. Y’all are amazing! 👊🏼

[@LostMines]

Glad you enjoyed it, lets go 10K~ we are close!

[@robertclayberger4314]

This video is the prime definition of the thrill of the unknown! Just knowing that you were the first people to step foot where no man has been for 120 years has to be exhilarating! Finding all the artifacts frozen in time helps to bring the mine back to life, in telling its story. Anxiously awaiting the next video from this mine explore! Keep up the great work and stay safe! Have a Happy New Year!

[@TheFreshSpam]

Please please preserve and take those amazing artifacts out and get them looked after. They stick around too long and in too good nick to be left. What history right there

[@davebeckley2584]

Really cool mine. Hard to imagine the amount of drilling, blasting, mucking, and hauling those miners had to do to open up such huge areas. Those metal dynamite boxes at 8:54 looked like the warming boxes used over a fire to thaw frozen sticks. Dynamite loses potency when it gets too cold. It doesn't explode when it overheats but more than one mine had a very vigorous fire when someone forgot they were thawing the stuff out.

[@TheGreatest1974]

Thanks for watching

[@gutsngorrrr]

I loved caving when I was young and this brings back such fond memories of doing very similar stuff and being told never to divulge the locations of a lot of the sites.

[@davidrockefeller2007]

Why the secret?

[@gutsngorrrr]

@@davidrockefeller2007 Unfortunately, even back then people were going in to caves and old mines and removing or destroying stalagmites and other natural formations and also artifacts from old mines. All these things should be left for future explorers to enjoy. Hence not telling people where some of the more hidden and therefore untouched places were.

[@andyf10]

Greta video guys... well done

[@DFDuck55]

The first wooden smoking pipes were made in Germany in the very early 1600s. But they were only used to breath in the smoke of tobacco that was burned in something else. It wasn't till the mid-1800s that the wide spread use of wooden pipes replaced pipes made of other materials like clay and porcelain. Many people have claimed to have been the first to make wooden pipes of briar, but the most reliable thesis suggests they were first made in Saint-Claude, France. Tobacco smoking pipes are still commonly made from briar wood. I have a few myself that I smoke occasionally.

Briar is a knot in a tree that is tougher than the surrounding wood. Pipe bowls are made from that.

You did right by not touching the explosives! I found half a stick of dynamite next to some detonators, in Knock Murton iron mine, in Cumbria, back in the early 80's. It was is a paper bag, so I didn't realise what it was until I had unwrapped it. It was a yellow clay like material wrapped in paper, about 30mm diameter. I had the RH end of the stick, on the paper was written 'amite' and Nobel ! I put it down very carefully and climbed back down out of the very steep and loose stope. I worked with an Ex army munitions expert, he said it was likely to be very unstable as the nitro-glycerin can leach out over time. Those old haematite mines were pretty dodgy without the added 'excitement' of unstable explosives. Does any one know if it's still accessible? It was close to Cogra moss lake, next to a track through forestry . Love your channel, Paul in NZ

[@vincentfontana7915]

Dundee Michigan USA awesome find. In 1843 the first copper mine shafts were sunk and the greatest mineral rush in the United States. In the north west lake supieor region was the only place in the world where mass native copper was mined. The mines needed experience miners and Cornwall England had just the kind of men they needed. They came by the thousands to a place of harsh winters 380 inches per year. In the wilderness they came to mine. Many died in the mines as well out of the mines on the property. In the cemeteries the Graves read how the died in the mine. I have many pictures from up there and have many artifacts found at the mine sights over 500 shafts were sunk from 1843 till the last mine closed in the 1990s. Most all mining ceased by 1945 when the war ended. My family has a copper mining history and still have 2nd cousins that live in a old mining town most all are ghost towns but not much remains due to the harsh winters. If your lucky you might find the first level not flooded. Any how great find hope you grabbed that pipe that was sweet. The ones I've found were made of clay but from around the same time period. Stay safe send us another sweet adventure as we say in Michigan.
