This guy looks like the type of guy you'd want to help you on a difficult and large project because he's used to hardwork.

I was curious how lead was mined in the old days and this video helped me learn. Thanks so much!

Watching all your videos, I live in Rochester. Been trying to find somebody with some decent knowledge in video form from around here and this is the best so far. Thank you! I’m a metal detector so this is all crucial info😂

Thanks very much for this very informative video on the old lead/zinc mines! If I am in the Platteville, WI area, I would love to visit the mine in town. Thanks again.

Awesome, thank you! I only throw in the mine / history videos occasionally, but I do have a few more planned. Plus we're digging our own tunnels at Sandland :-)

Coal mines are a bit outside my comfort zone... less stable rock and worse / more explosive air. I looked for some coal mines in Southern MN but I'd think twice about actually going in one, even with gas sensors.
