This is a fast paced and exciting Mine Exploration Channel. We have been in hundreds of abandoned mines in Canada, United States and Mexico. Join us underground and we will show you things no human has seen for decades! A fast paced, exciting channel that will not bore you. Visit our website exploringabandonedmines.com for directions, exciting pictures and merch.
Why do we explore mines? Two reasons
1) Documenting the mines for future generations.
2) Collecting artifacts for our museum.
WEe have recently purchased a mine called the Yankee Boy Mine in Grand Forks BC, We are restoring the mine so we can take people for a tour of an underground mine . It will be open in the spring of 2023. For more information on the history of the Yankee Boy Mine go to https://minfile.gov.bc.ca/summary.aspx?minfilno=082ESE189
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.
