Exploring a Large Hardrock Gold Mine

Join us as the ‪@mineoperator‬ team uses their climbing gear to explore a large historic gold mine. Belaying into a ladder raise, climbing into stopes, climbing old ladders, using a map of the mine, and taking samples. Our goal is to confirm all access points into the mine and the feasibility of re-opening this gold mine. The vein widens to over 12 feet with chalcedonic quartz containing free milling gold. #mineexploration #goldmines #underground #abandonedmine #1175409
