Hidden treasures? This abandoned mine certainly had its fair share of them that Justin and I found while exploring and documenting it. The Hidden Treasure Mine was first dug in the early 1900s and was mined for gold, silver, and silica. According to old mining reports, it was last worked in the 1970s but might've been worked later than that. Several vertical shafts are onsite that intersect with more modern, downward-sloping tunnels. We entered one of the large, modern portals that continually sloped down into the mine's depths. Along the way we found ore chutes, looked into gaping stopes, examined an empty bag of blasting agent, peered over the edge of a 975-foot vertical shaft, climbed over collapses, discovered a large ventilation fan, and much more. It was quite an adventure and exploration! I hope you enjoy the video!

Be sure to stop by his channel titled "Southern New Mexico Explorer" and check out his fantastic, abandoned mine videos from the last few years. And why not take a couple seconds and subscribe to Justin's A+ channel while you're there so you can support his work. He's almost at 1000 subscribers, so let's all get together and put him over the top! I'd appreciate that and so would he. Thank you very much for supporting a fellow abandoned mine explorer!
