Arizona Gold Mine Reconnaissance Trip
Ғылым және технология
@MineOperator is given a lead on an abandoned gold mine and mill site. Two of our loyal subscribers conducted some pathfinder work, gathered some intel on equipment and confirmed some old workings that may have potential.
Chad did the research and homework on the claim. We could not resist checking out the place with a tractor, conveyor belts, generators, air compressor, shaker table and a full ore bin. The tractor's key was taken the day before we got there, so someone is looking at the same place. The trails were reportedly impassable, so we took the minimum, expecting to hike in.
Fortunately, with a bit of work, we got in. We took about 100 lbs of samples to run back at the MineOperator millsite, but initial on-site panning of ore from the mine and mill site hoppers could have been better. Enjoy as Ron, Mr. Hollywood and Harry navigate this adventure.

Good video, I envy the adventure.
Great trip, guys! The way ya’ll keep at yer bidness, that big find is just over the next rise! Thanx fer bringin us along.
Beautiful dirt road and nice skyline....❤❤
Amazing landscape. Must took some serious effort to get all that equipment up there! Thank you for the time and effort you guys put into these films. It’s much appreciated. Looking forward to the next episode. 👍😄
Looks like a good adventure. They must have found something to take all that stuff up there.
That was an interesting adventure. The equipment and artifacts are always interesting to see. It took me a bit to process that clear blue sky, I live near Jason of mbmmllc and it's been dark and wet and cloudy so long that the blue sky didn't register with me! I enjoy the mining and prospecting youtubers, it's adventure that very few can do physically.
nice one team! keep exploring!!
You're in my subscription when I first saw you all working your butts off with Jason. 👍🏻
Thanks for bringing us along, very enjoyable seeing other parts of the claim. I can't wait for the weather here so I can get to getting again. A little weter and colder up my way. I'm on the northern side, of the Northern Cali Mother Lode. Hundreds of mines round here, been researching one 1500ft behind the house, can't find any records. Another that is nearby, had a stamp mill drug up to it in the 1900's but supposedly never produced 🙄 Take care and stay safe, heavy pans to Ya ! P.S. be sure not to feed the GEO's after midnight ! 🤣
Dang. This channel is making me wish I still lived back in Tucson. I miss the beautiful clear Arizona desert.
The earth is still subducting..and the gold is growing in front of Harry and Ron..lol.. good time of year for Arizona before it gets 125 degrees!! Lol
Nice exploration wish you would have had the results of your sampling to show thanks for the video
Thanks for the adventure
Fun to prospect. Just be very careful.
Who was supposed to bring the ether? 😂
Your rock hammer is terrible 🤣🤣⛏⛏

So is this an active or recently active claim you're evaluating, or what? More backstory please!

Should upgrade to a RZR
Every step you took, and you weren’t swinging that metal detector was a waste of time. I could see you were filming. you were talking. I get it you were busy making a video. 19:24

You are correct. Ron already detected then went back over to film. I dislike filming and detecting simultaneously.
