Geronimo and his men were captured and held at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio. They wouldn’t eat the American food they were given. So, the American soldiers asked what they would eat and Geronimo said he wanted peacocks and deer. If you visit the Fort today. There are still peacocks and deer roaming the grounds. Love your story telling & love the channel.

Thanks Kahn, a lot of work goes into it, so many thanks for the compliment.

I need to get a rock... Galena is Lead Sulfide (PbS). As you said, it can contain Silver (Ag). The more silver, the less sharp the crystal structure because the Silver breaks up the symmetry. Old time miners like the colonial Spanish liked Galena because it was somewhat self-fluxing - it already has the lead in it. I like your theory about the stone structure. Super interesting history about Jerome and Geronimo!

I just wish I was closer to the area (Florida). Not sure but, the stories you tell get mind wondering for sure. If I was closer I would be chasing Geronimo's and those Spanish explorers path every weekend, just to see those sites. Thanks again

You do such a great job on these, and your integrity is self evident.

Many thanks Slim. I'm hoping the video is successful, if so I'll do more similar type videos. I can only find so many old Spanish and Indian sites, so videos like this are nice to fill in the gaps and keep the channel alive.

Fascinating story Christopher.. thanks for sharing this.. keep up the great work.

Great videos sir! Have you ever explored the sangre de cristo mtns in southern colorado? Iam at the base of them and iam always finding old mining sites. Your videos help and inspire me to expand my understanding of these old sites. If you are ever in the san luis valley in southern colorado, lets go explore!

Many thanks! I have a little bit. Years ago I used to live in the Westcliffe area. Back then I was really big into dirt bikes, so that consumed most of my time. Beautiful mountain range!!!

I like your theory, but would they really go through the trouble to make that rock enclosure just to store rocks. Why not just make a pile of ore?

@LowBudgetExploration

Good question. The only thing I can think of is they were chucking the ore in the cavity (located behind the rock enclosure), making a pile like you mention. I think the rock enclosure was used to temporarily store the important stuff; food type items, dynamite and so forth. Just in case it took them a couple of trips to haul the stuff up the mountain. This way everything would be protected, in the event they couldn't make it back down until the next day or something like that. Rather than that, I'm not really sure.
