“TVR Exploring”

An abandoned silver mine in Nevada? Who would have thought such a thing were possible… Yes, this canyon of mines was primarily a silver mining operation, although there was also some gold and copper reported as secondary minerals. The mineral potential of the area was first discovered in the…

  1. Hi Justin, those quartz veins were mental, everything you need for gold and silver, awesome.
    I say it would be a good idea to go down that man way at the end of the video just to document
    whether there is anything down there or if it's just short drifts on either side of it.
    Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

  2. So cool to see you guys at a mine I've been to because I don't get to many living in Eastern Oregon. We were there in July (Frickn HOT) I checked out the ruins while my two grown sons scrambled all over that mountain side to the east.(you didn't miss anything over there). We all went in the first one with the passing tracks for the carts and were really bummed when it faced out shortly thereafter. My youngest went in the second one and followed a Fox to the end! We plead the 5th on the Silver bullet can.

  3. almost bang on 7.17 there is a packrat watching you from the top of the beam just before you say rats have made it a home
    The Peregrine falcon (I think) was very cool btw
    Are you allowed to move cave ins etc,
    that bit of the mine looked viable for something if not silver…..who knows
    hmm Thats a long walk into rope down a potentially bottomed out ore pass but should you feel the urge I would definitely be interested to see that.
    Thanks for sharing so far

  4. Having watched many of your videos, I am always surprised/interested in why quartz veins are not exploited when they are so easily accessed. The logical answer is that these veins are not profitable and if so, is continued mining just wishful? I would also guess that these veins produce just enough to keep the process going.

  5. A very interesting explore again, i guess that wood like stuff is not a good sign for a mine if it is all over the mine, not very solid, perhaps that ore pass goes beyond a collapse but it is solid? ehr me not know lol.

  6. the level of danger in mining silver is just not worth the time?have to use mercury to get it, not worth dying for. and selling it im not worth 45.00 oz. ?

  7. You should have taken a sample of that slatey wood looking stuff and had it looked at by a lab or something to figure out what it was because it was very interesting especially seeing the quartz in those little ovals one after another
