Jeff does a good job here explaining what is really in a mine!

Cool video MN,

    That's an amazingly untouched place! I'm sure many of us would be like "kids in a candy store", just like Jeff, with all the old tools and equipment! The fabrication and maintenance building alone, would make one hell of a shop!! And keep me busy for years! Although, all the lead dust may be a problem!

Thanks for posting!👍👍

Ironic it closed in the 1970's, apparently before the record gold (and silver) price, and has never been reopened.  The (couple of) records Jeff was thumbing through didn't show much gold, but significant silver and some base metals.   Obviously this was a very large operation with lots of employees.  A snapshot of the past.  Thanks, Mitchel!

I couldn't find where he mentioned the location (likely intentional) but since he lives in Las Vegas, probably near there.
