In this video we explore the extensive Tamarack Mine. This mine was originally discovered in the late 1800’s but was not mined on a large scale until the mid 1900’s. This mine was eventually connected and expanded into a modern mine from the 1970’s. The mine in question is what I call the ‘Keystone Mine’. This mine produced tungsten and was one of the largest tungsten producers in the state of Nevada.
The workings of the Tamarack Mine are extremely confusing. Of the many mines I’ve explored, this is one of few that I could see myself getting a bit turned around in. The mine features numerous branching drifts, crosscuts, stopes, winzes and raises.
Part 2 will be released next week and will feature the deeper portions of the Tamarack Mine. Enjoy!
