The # 5 portal of the Hope Ruth was an old mine that was refurbished in the 80s to handle ore from the nearby Sylvana mine near Sandon BC. I Climb from the 4,000 level of the Hope Ruth Mine, 625 feet though a ton of old workings, drifts and machines abandoned 50 years ago and run into modern miners working at the Silvana Mine who thought I was a ghost!


We've explored hundreds of abandoned mines in Canada the United States and Mexico, going places nobody else would dare to go! A New video is produced every Friday, check us out here:

We do this for two main reasons:
1) Documenting the mines for future generations.
2) Collecting artifacts for our museum.

Mines are being filled in, demolished, and/or collapsing at an alarming rate, so it is crucial to document them and save these artifacts while it is still possible.

This is all about mining and mining exploration. Join us for our weekly adventures as we go deep underground into historic abandoned hard rock Gold, Silver and Copper mines. We relive the Prospecting, Gold Rush days, going back in history with every expedition. Visiting abandoned and forgotten places, climbing down mine shafts into dangerous mines, finding treasures, seeing antique heavy equipment such as ore carts, crushers, milling machines, ball mills, explosives and other mining equipment.
This isn't like Minecraft or Ghost Town Living but if you want to visit some real historic Abandoned Mines...
