Hi, This reminds me so much of my own life. Im from an old mining family in Australia. Where I lived as a child was a mountain out the back of our house with family mines from 1916ish & earlier. These were all abandoned & there are no roads, tracks or maps. Im the only one of my generation that knows where they are., I remember picking metal chunks out of the rock walls as a kid. They mined silver, lead, gold, molybdenite from super hard light grey granite. The last time I was there was 1991, we found 2 of them but there are others still in the area. We were tramping through the bush just like you are here in this video. Cheers Daniel.
Thanks for preserving artifacts. Nothing better than finding items from so long ago on explorations! I hope my kids can enjoy finds like this in their futures as well. Great details on the research you do as well and tying it in with history. I love this!
