Thank you for this amazing Video. The Intro is absolut great 😂😂😂 The mine is very good and very dangerous . A great thank you for taking the risks to bring the pictures to us. The miners have done a big amount of work but in the end they got a bit crazy with all these levels and sublevels and this very thin space between the levels.😊😊 You did right not to Show the location of the mine. I am looking forward to Part 2 Greeting from Germany the Harz mountains and the Rammelsberg Mine. Glück Auf Frank Galetzka
As your team starts out at 8:22, that is a huge chamber that was stopped out! Lots of crumbling as to all the stopeing thru out the adets. The way the miners ventured up/down/sideways tells me that the mineral veins were extensive. What a way to mine into a hill. This mine is sure different in many facets as to how the miners took the mineral out. (It was a quick study, but thanks for the documentation).
A nice big stope you started in wow, and a lot more further in and a bit off a mess all over, not strange with all those big stopes , a great explore indeed thanks Justin.
Hi Justin, I loved seeing those old ore carts and that barrel was pretty nice too, I agree with you, they really did take a lot of material out of there. I don't know how you guys keep your nerve on those sections that fall through, was Jeremy okay as it looked like he fell quite a few feet at one point on the rope ???. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💞
You know you’re a RUclips Pro when you can tee up an opening like that. All those stopes, reminds of the old song, Sixteen Tons, You load 16 tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt, St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go, I owe my soul to the company store…
The sarcasm runs deep with you, Justin! It's amazing that this complex maze of tunnels exists below the streets of Kabul unbeknownst to the passers-by.
Yes, I've noticed that in the mines I've been to all over the world. As soon as I get underground, I understand exactly what they were doing because the techniques and equipment are so similar. The surface stuff is a wild card.
Your normal way of starting your videos outside at the area of your mine site is smart . Never disclose the location or give too much of an idea where your at because people will show up , destroy and steel relics , and do what they do .... trash everything. We that are viewers can watch and enjoy . We can go out and find mines to explore as well . But stick to the normal intro of scenery and mine sites and mines Thankyou
Spain or Mexico?! Did you not see the intro? He’s in the Middle East somewhere. There’s a bunch of women who are clearly Muslim and Arabic writing on the signs. Lol you are silly. :p
One of these days, the author of one of these fine calligraphic mine graffitos will still be with us, but I don't think I've spotted one yet. Looks like Lewis van Leuven went off to war in the Airborne and lost both legs after D-Day. Darlene Atherley came pretty close to intersecting the video - she died in 2016.
Are there certain types of mines that have more miners graffiti? Some,like this one, seem to be bursting with them while others have nothing. Also did Jeremy get to just hang out there in that spot for hours after being the meat anchor so early on?
It comes down to the personalities of the miners that worked in that particular mine. The exception would be a particularly wet mine where the carbide graffiti would simply be erased... No, that first meat anchor was just to transition through.
This definitely could be classified as another “Lost World’s Project” type exploration, (Might I suggest: “The Unknown Microcosm Adventure” or “The Unidentified Sub-terrestrial Expedition”) just from how difficult it was to get a grasp of its layout (mostly due to damage overtime that made it confusing to try and discern what each area was originally) and sheer scale of the operation! At times, it seemed like the miners were chasing a very unruly vein with the way the drifts and passes seemed to double back around and under each other! (though that could be because it’s hard to create a mental map when watching through a screen) Makes me wonder just how intricately these systems of mines were connected!
I prefer your traditional intros... Odd too, that a mine in the middle east would have English miners signatures. 😂 Thanks for the tour, waiting for part 2!
@@sierramountainsrailfanning2114 pretty sure, kinda a wise crack because nagging. He doesn't show much of the surrounding area before due to safety, vandalism, punks in general.
I would love to have at least two old (riveted preferred) mine carts to use to haul dirt on my property. At the very minimum put solid rubber tires on it but keep it as original as possible! Having a lot of that trackb would be awesome as well to make a train ride for my granddaughter on our families 20 acres.
Strange here I thought you always did good job of laying everything out normally. You either show the hike into the area, or the buildings and equipment around the site. Wondering if they know to read the " more" to get better understanding from what you've learned through the research about everything you can find about everything possible including weight taken as far as minerals, depth, number of levels, when it was opened, and the last time it was actually worked according to records available. But it is a mining channel that operates active mine, and tries to locate old long abandoned mines in the US, and several other countries around the world. So one would expect to see inside the mine at the beginning or near the beginning of the video. Yes Sir I know, but it's almost impossible to resist the need to make a point of all the efforts that you go through from start to the end of the video that just suddenly stops. Leaving one kinda like, where'd he go, but they didn't mention that part. Sure glad that you're the one editing all the video memory you have to go through including from the others with you that you have to edit into your videos. Now can we begin after such along delay walking through the streets of some city in a country that 99.8% of us will never see with our own eyes in person to know whether this is real footage or something you edited into it to appease those nice viewers.😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂
@jilbertb I understand not leaving trash and wrappers from where you stopped for lunch. And I understand not taking "artifacts" or raiding the area for scrap metal as he has suggested some have done in the past in other videos, but in this particular case, I would think it would be a contribution to future explorers if in this case, in such an elaborate mine where some less experienced people could get turned around and lost, what would the harm be in drawing a line through the "incorrect/original" label and draw a new arrow pointing the correct direction with a new 2024 date. That way, future explorers could see both the original miners graffiti and admire the original explorers work, while at the same time, have the correct exit direction marked. It might save someone in the future who gets down there, starts running low on batteries and panics and starts chasing their tale in circles. In the interest of safety, I would think that that exception to altering what you find would be OK.
I find the idea of trashing the historical aesthetics with modern spray paint to be appalling. Secondly, if someone has to worry about being lost in such an environment, they should not be in there in the first place.
That's got to be one of the best intro's yet. Love it.
Glad the mine was as dry as your sense of humor...lol...thanks for sharing as always!
Lol
That intro. 😂
Thank you for your great content. 🙏
yeah that was hilarous!
Cinematic gold, flawless transition, editing masterpiece, ❤awesome mine brother, thank you kind sir, much love from Australia 🎉
From the surface, I never would have expected sych an interesting mine!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Complaining!? 😂 Just enjoy the show guys! Justin is bringing us along on his adventures!
I wish more people felt that way about the content that they consume for free...
@@TVRExploring Consider us the silent majority just taking it all in!

It's really nice of you to bring your friends along on your mine explorations in the far east!
I always like to have them feel included... I'm glad that you're able to see and appreciate my generosity as well.
Looks like a labyrinth in there and easy to get lost. Great explore as always, looking forward to part two!
Wow ,so much material taken out in every direction including under the walkways. Freaked me out when the floor gave away.
Leaving us with a cliff hanger. I'm already waiting to see what you all found in there
I'm most likely going to use the wrong term but this mine appears to me as an "Industrial Size Mine" for it's time. Can't wait to see part 2!
I think that was a fair description. This is only a small part of it...
The intro is noting short of pure marketing genius.

Yes, it's not very well known...
Fabulous explore and very clever intro ..awesome .. thanks for these great videos and history ..
From Australia
Very awesome and interesting mine. I love all the artifacts. In Australia where I am all those artifacts would be taken and sold by artifact hunters.
Unfortunately, easily accessible American mines would likewise be completely stripped of artifacts.
@@TVRExploring oh wow. That's sad.
Some of the pockets and stopes look natural
I like your jumping right into the video. No pre-yakking is good. But I also enjoyed today's intro. Keep up the great work.
Looks like it could be a big mine, thanks for making this video
America and Wales look so different above ground. Underground it looks identical haha, even the carbide graffiti. Love the videos pal

What a intro! What a Mine!
Touché on the opener 😂 Thanks for another fine explore!
Could you please posable a part 2 of this mine it's the best one yet....tank u
Hey Justin, WOW ! Where are we this week ? Spain or Mexico ? Incredible mine, Thanks for the video, I will be looking forward to seeing part 2
Spain or Mexico?! Did you not see the intro? He’s in the Middle East somewhere. There’s a bunch of women who are clearly Muslim and Arabic writing on the signs. Lol you are silly. :p
great complaints department 😄
thank you for sharing your dips into the underworld
Certainly, we always try to be very responsive to complaints...
Thought I'd screwed up and clicked onto Bald & Bankrupt lol
Nice tour, long live the ore car.
Looks like downtown Reno to me...
Awesome place.

What would be neat to see, if you can find any to show, is the ore they were mining.
nice, i like the opening vid...great footage of the ore, tools and you guys go all the way

Was all that rock removed from the stopes? Or is some of that natural hollow space?
It was difficult to tell with some of it. I believe that most of it was removed by the miners.
INTRO.😉 Nice job guys.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fantastic opening sir
Cool! 🇨🇦
Start your next video on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland that’s way more believable 😂😂😂
Ha, that's actually a great idea...
Don't you guys have your own mine? Haven't seen anything about it in awhile.
Have you ever thought of doing an exploration with any of your subscribers? I would love to explore with you
Good company is always welcome.

Yes, there was a lot of bending and folding around with this one...
Intro……
Too cool! Hahahahaha
Loved the intro! Think you might have something unique to add to the videos 😅
I wouldnt show any of the outside around the mines you explore simply for safety reasons. That intro was funny though
Must have had the Wheatie's to Crawl Over all that debris!!!; )
Mine exploring is great exercise.
A lot going on inside that mine. does not look like anyone has been in there in years.
Holy Cow, is this in Butte County too?
No, we explore mines all over the world... This one is more than a thousand miles from Butte County. I wish we had a mine this dry in Butte County!
20 minutes in I figured it out. Lol, great troll!
Lol. Love the beginning. I was like wtf. Some Indiana Jones stuff right there.
We know why you don't show the surface. Thank you
The battered bucket was used for carrying out the gold.
I like that sceanrio.
Typo... *Scenario.
The amount of material they took out oh my!
Quite a lot...
I prefer your traditional intros... Odd too, that a mine in the middle east would have English miners signatures. 😂
Thanks for the tour, waiting for part 2!
what country is this?
Why does this look so familiar? 🤔
13:00 Lewis Van Leuven, its a Belgium name.
😂 good intro!
Does anybody know if they are anybody abandon mines with orecarts and tracks in Tennessee north Carolina and Virginia
That intro lmao😅😂
Fr bro that was unexpected.
Did he do that on purpose.
@@sierramountainsrailfanning2114 pretty sure, kinda a wise crack because nagging. He doesn't show much of the surrounding area before due to safety, vandalism, punks in general.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Boga217 kinda thought that because some of his other videos he says forest service doesn't appreciate it.
What? You didn’t find the world’s oldest fez sitting on ancient pair of Levis?
I fell for it too😄
just wondering. Have you ever gone into a mine and met someone there...or a bear or cougar? Love the channel. How is your mine doing>
I watch some cavers on YT that have!
A dead bear once... No living humans or large animals in an abandoned mine (yet).
I don't know if that was meant as a joke at the beginning or what but you look like you're in India or somewhere
I would love to have at least two old (riveted preferred) mine carts to use to haul dirt on my property. At the very minimum put solid rubber tires on it but keep it as original as possible!
Having a lot of that trackb would be awesome as well to make a train ride for my granddaughter on our families 20 acres.
I really hope some new viewers buy that intro.
It was my sincere hope as well and, judging by some of the comments, we got what we wanted...
@@TVRExploring You almost got me with the Florida one a few years ago. I said to myself Florida doesn't even have a hill let alone a mountain.
@@MikeOrkid Haha.

Just out of curiosity, why don't you update the "graffiti" and correctly label the new way out. It might save someone's life someday.
"Leave only footprints"...
