Merick donates a generation’s worth of equipment and knowledge. Legend!

You guys just came up, big-time! As soon as you find that high grade lead, and we all know you will, you’ll be in to win it! Mine Operator is the best team in the game. That’s why you’re getting all this help. Real good energy.

Generosity of that man! Nice one!

Merick the Mining Santa 😊 So many wonderful gifts - WOW 💛🙏🏼

Merick is a legend! Thank you Merrick! What a way to preserve this treasure for the next generation.

Nice to see miners helping other miners out!!

What a nice generous gentleman thanks for the video

That was really nice of him to give you that. That's a few bucks for the steel and bits alone. Looks like he got good use from his kiln.

Blessings come in many ways, put it to work! Can't wait till you all get get back with Jason, worked lots of jackhammers, tearing-up the streets of NYC in my younger days, understand them, but never no mine drills, put them to good work....⚒️⛏️⚖️💪👍🤠

What a nice guy to give that stuff to yall.

Very generous of Merik!! Looks like some of it may need a little TLC and cleaning up as he said, but sure beats having to spend on new. Hope you are able to use it and give him a shout-out in the video when you do.

Man, I'd like to hear some of Meriks stories, I bet he has a ton of them!

What a blessing!

that was pretty cool of Merick to do that ....I bet he could tell stories of the Gold old days for weeks ...would love to hear those stories.... can't wait to see you put them jacklegs into action in the mine and shoot a round ....keep'em coming and get that Shiney

If I remember correctly, Merik has driven 1,500' of drifts, and sank a 700' shaft with these drills. We'd love to get that kind of experience while pulling in that Shiney! We're lining up a location Jeff. Keep you posted.

@@mineoperator thats great ....can't wait

That dude is amazingly cool for donating that equipment to you guys. Chad and Harry have experience using a jackleg with Jason last summer so we know you'll put them to good use!

I hope Merick can come out to one of your mine sites to share knowledge and hang out.

Oh man what a great idea, please please please make this happen. Talk about a walking mining encyclopedia, I wouldn’t miss that series for the world. ❤

I hope you get it all working and put it to good use. May your gold pans all be full of shiny.

Dude thats awesome to get all that equipment hope you give that man a small cut

Yeah, got hooked up!

That’s so awesome 🤝👍

Sweet 👍

Yay now u got more equipment for me to learn to run WHEN you guys give me that job!! 😂

Get him some good ore to play with when he sets up his shaker table 😁

Merik is what I aspire to be like. Generosity towards a younger generation with the same passion I have. When I’m of appropriate age I’ll be on the look out for a young man or woman to donate my equipment to. If they are smart enough to spend some time with me to pass on my little bit of knowledge, there’s no telling what they might inherit when I’m gone! So young folks us old guys are watching what and how you handle yourself. My love to everyone who pursues their dreams with kindness and gratitude to God for making it possible! Stay safe and again sir thank you for being an inspiration. This is how to be a good man! ❤

Very Cool 😎
