Thank you for this amazing Video. The Intro is absolut great 😂😂😂 The mine is very good and very dangerous . A great thank you for taking the risks to bring the pictures to us. The miners have done a big amount of work but in the end they got a bit crazy with all these levels and sublevels and this very thin space between the levels.😊😊 You did right not to Show the location of the mine. I am looking forward to Part 2 Greeting from Germany the Harz mountains and the Rammelsberg Mine. Glück Auf Frank Galetzka

Leaving us with a cliff hanger. I'm already waiting to see what you all found in there

I'm most likely going to use the wrong term but this mine appears to me as an "Industrial Size Mine" for it's time. Can't wait to see part 2!

I think that was a fair description. This is only a small part of it...

A nice big stope you started in wow, and a lot more further in and a bit off a mess all over, not strange with all those big stopes , a great explore indeed thanks Justin.

Looks like a labyrinth in there and easy to get lost. Great explore as always, looking forward to part two!

Very nice , with all the people around above on the ground level , I wouldn't of expected this just around the corner ! 😳😉😎

Cinematic gold, flawless transition, editing masterpiece, ❤awesome mine brother, thank you kind sir, much love from Australia 🎉

As your team starts out at 8:22, that is a huge chamber that was stopped out! Lots of crumbling as to all the stopeing thru out the adets. The way the miners ventured up/down/sideways tells me that the mineral veins were extensive. What a way to mine into a hill. This mine is sure different in many facets as to how the miners took the mineral out. (It was a quick study, but thanks for the documentation).

You know you’re a KZread Pro when you can tee up an opening like that. All those stopes, reminds of the old song, Sixteen Tons, You load 16 tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt, St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go, I owe my soul to the company store…

Your normal way of starting your videos outside at the area of your mine site is smart . Never disclose the location or give too much of an idea where your at because people will show up , destroy and steel relics , and do what they do .... trash everything. We that are viewers can watch and enjoy . We can go out and find mines to explore as well . But stick to the normal intro of scenery and mine sites and mines Thankyou

One of these days, the author of one of these fine calligraphic mine graffitos will still be with us, but I don't think I've spotted one yet. Looks like Lewis van Leuven went off to war in the Airborne and lost both legs after D-Day. Darlene Atherley came pretty close to intersecting the video - she died in 2016.

20 minutes in I figured it out. Lol, great troll!

This definitely could be classified as another “Lost World’s Project” type exploration, (Might I suggest: “The Unknown Microcosm Adventure” or “The Unidentified Sub-terrestrial Expedition”) just from how difficult it was to get a grasp of its layout (mostly due to damage overtime that made it confusing to try and discern what each area was originally) and sheer scale of the operation! At times, it seemed like the miners were chasing a very unruly vein with the way the drifts and passes seemed to double back around and under each other! (though that could be because it’s hard to create a mental map when watching through a screen) Makes me wonder just how intricately these systems of mines were connected!

Are there certain types of mines that have more miners graffiti? Some,like this one, seem to be bursting with them while others have nothing. Also did Jeremy get to just hang out there in that spot for hours after being the meat anchor so early on?

@TVRExploring

It comes down to the personalities of the miners that worked in that particular mine. The exception would be a particularly wet mine where the carbide graffiti would simply be erased... No, that first meat anchor was just to transition through.

Strange here I thought you always did good job of laying everything out normally. You either show the hike into the area, or the buildings and equipment around the site. Wondering if they know to read the " more" to get better understanding from what you've learned through the research about everything you can find about everything possible including weight taken as far as minerals, depth, number of levels, when it was opened, and the last time it was actually worked according to records available. But it is a mining channel that operates active mine, and tries to locate old long abandoned mines in the US, and several other countries around the world. So one would expect to see inside the mine at the beginning or near the beginning of the video. Yes Sir I know, but it's almost impossible to resist the need to make a point of all the efforts that you go through from start to the end of the video that just suddenly stops. Leaving one kinda like, where'd he go, but they didn't mention that part. Sure glad that you're the one editing all the video memory you have to go through including from the others with you that you have to edit into your videos. Now can we begin after such along delay walking through the streets of some city in a country that 99.8% of us will never see with our own eyes in person to know whether this is real footage or something you edited into it to appease those nice viewers.😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂

​@jilbertb I understand not leaving trash and wrappers from where you stopped for lunch. And I understand not taking "artifacts" or raiding the area for scrap metal as he has suggested some have done in the past in other videos, but in this particular case, I would think it would be a contribution to future explorers if in this case, in such an elaborate mine where some less experienced people could get turned around and lost, what would the harm be in drawing a line through the "incorrect/original" label and draw a new arrow pointing the correct direction with a new 2024 date. That way, future explorers could see both the original miners graffiti and admire the original explorers work, while at the same time, have the correct exit direction marked. It might save someone in the future who gets down there, starts running low on batteries and panics and starts chasing their tale in circles. In the interest of safety, I would think that that exception to altering what you find would be OK.
