UNDERGROUND GOLD POCKET MINE from the 1890's

Exploring an Old Gold Pocket Mine from the 1890's. The original discovery ore from this mine paid $100 per ton at the 1890's price. That same ore would be worth thousands of dollars a ton at todays prices. Dozens of Pockets have been found on this hillside and in these underground workings..

Amazing.. its crazy to think how many miles of these old mine shafts possibly exist.

That's interesting! We also visited an old goldmine here in Switzerland, it also had some limestone stalactites and sinter coatings. Hello from a Swiss gold prospector

Looks like graves creek to me

That's by the Briggs pocket or the Fowler lode?

Closer to Jacksonville. We wanted to run the Vortxrex up there, but we don’t have permission for that yet. Very rich area. Pocket mines are one of my favorite obsessions, so find me on FB and send me a friend request if you want to have a real discussion on this ;)
