    Using a mini Jet thruster to drill rock is the most 1950s nuclear/jet age thing I’ve ever heard. Lol. I’m impressed that there is still an example like that in such good shape and pretty much complete. Rock drills don’t seem to rank very high on the preservation list.

      Haha, I know, right! Very wild idea

    What a blast from the past. I'm surprised they came out with a new model in 67. It must have been for the two east Range mines. It wasn't very long after that that even they converted to rotary drills.
    The key for rotary drills in taconite was the tricone rotary bit with carbide button inserts.
    The biggest problem, other than the logistics ofoxygen and water, was holding hole diameter. If they hit a fault or soft spot the hole would enlarge, screwing up the explosive loading.

    • @PAmining
      @PAmining  8 месяцев назад +2

      I would imagine the constant hole size fluctuation was a huge issue with perfecting a blast. Thanks for the interesting input! Cheers!

    • @lowercherty

      This one looks like it was bought for one of the large pilot taconite plants on the central Range.

    @jdjones752 8 месяцев назад +15

    Love this old iron. Simple controls, back when operators knew how to operate a piece of equipment. Not like the lever pushers and gauge monitors so prevalent today. Some old timers would have their entire career on a single piece of equipment.

    • @lewiemcneely9143
      @lewiemcneely9143 8 месяцев назад +2

      An older guy that came to help us set up a rock crusher ran that same plant for 25 years.

    • @astrorion6933
      @astrorion6933 8 месяцев назад +6

      An entire career on a single piece of equipment? That’s more of a level puller than an operator since a real operator can operate everything. The future is now old man lol.

    • @lewiemcneely9143
      @lewiemcneely9143 8 месяцев назад

      The old crusher was generator powered and just had a jaw, a cone and a shaker and a bunch of conveyors and a feeder. Had an old pony start Cat D8 or 9 pulling the generator. I got to fire it when he was gone and I dare say he probably could run anything to do with the whole operation. It was a portable plant and they moved all over to different crushing sites and he was the one that was boss over setting it up, running it, tearing it back down and moving it..Was past retirement age BUT was still catty enough so if he lost a hard hat or hammer head down through the jaw, he could go back over the jaw motor and catch it as it came out on the jaw conveyor and this was before there were hydraulic rock breakers on jaw crushers like now. I really liked him a site.@@astrorion6933

    @curtislowe4577 8 месяцев назад

    I grew up near the Texas Gulf Coast. I know a little about drilling for oil and next to nothing about taconite mining.
    How were the ash and exhaust coming up out of the hole dealt with? How hot was the stuff coming up out of hole. At 2:09 that looks like a huge exhaust stack. Is that where the still hot material coming out of the hole was exhausted away from the machine?
    From your description this beast was powered by an external source of electricity. Where were the electrical connections? How large were the cables? What was the input voltage? How were the power cables dealt with? How long were they? Since a liquid oxygen tank was provided was a generator parked nearby also?
    How many holes were jetted out for each blast? How far apart were the holes? How long did it take to jet out one blast worth of holes? How far was the drill moved away from the blast which makes me wonder about why it doesn't have its own diesel engine - like a locomotive.
    I couldn't grasp the operation from your description. A 4300F jet of burning gas was created at the business end of the drill. How was the water pumped? In the annular space between an outer casing and the piping bringing the FO and O2 to the burner nozzle?
    How much pressure and flow did the FO pump provide? How many holes did 525 gallons of FO jet out? How much oxygen and at what pressure?
    10x faster but only a 33% increase in hole productivity? Huh?

      I'm actually filming in 4K now. I'm just running out my stock of older 720HD videos. I never put up big money into cameras for making videos because frankly, I don't make much off of it. This is a hobby for me. And I have plenty of 1080p videos on here...that is not the answer to "more subscribers". The fact is this. This is a mining channel. Mining is not as popular as construction or small iron.
