Join us for another thrilling video of “Opening My Gold Mine” as Jason and @mineoperator crew embark on their last drill and blast of the season!
In this high-energy episode, Jason takes us deep into the heart of their gold mine, back to the coveted gold vein face. The mission begins with the…

You need to buy some cylindrical clay stemming plugs, life changer!
using gravel and sand to close up the holes might not be safe , i think the stuff in the hole will act as a (buck) shotgun shooting bedrea intoo the struts and inbed intoo everything in line with the hole
wat i seen used where some sort of waterfilled condoms pushed in the end after loading the holes up , i think the water shooting out would do less damage but the shock from the explosion will temporary swells / mushrooms the butt end of the condom type tube and turn the water hard as concrete and close the hole verry tightly before being blown out
Just a thought for the speeding up the stemming. In the UK we have chemical resin for gluing anchors in to concrete. A much smaller hole diameter than yours but something to think about.
Hey Jason, try tamping a newspaper over your blasting medium then pack some goopy clay balls on top of the paper to get a nice gas seal. It works great with stumps……. I've been told…
cool stuff
i want to see a mine blast, cant you put it protective covering, for some Camera's ,
watching from new zealand, we have no bears,
Keeping in mind that I know nothing about mining. Could you use a wet stemming that could be injected into the top of the hole? Like a large caulking gun?
when they started drilling, why is the air suddenly that dusty? is it really dust or is it watervapor or waterdroplets or what exactly makes the air that "white"? i guess it's not dust from stone because they wear no masks, or i at least hope so, we all know how bad this dust is for the health!
how much do the explosive costs to buy?
God I love watching this
Jason, what rain gear are you using?
Thanks.
Nice listening to you endeavouring along.
outstanding👍❗💯🏆🥇
Awesome video, Jason! Thank you so much for the detailed explanations of the how and why behind what you are doing. Can't wait for the next installment!
Bro. Slicosis… you need masks when there is dust.
Hi, can´t you just seal the drillholes off with some sort of hardening sprayfoam or quickdrying cement?
you need to find a powered tool with a screw auger that can push your "Stem" material through a spout of some sort with a little force. so one guy could mix it and stick it in the hopper, and the other could stick the tool end in the hole, press the button to activate the auger and it would really fill those holes fast and efficiently. worth looking into.
Thanks for making this video. That was so awesome Jason
Should have a little sluice just where the cuttings are washing out the drill hole can see what gold is coming out
Hard Rock mining it's not for pussies 😫 👍👍 that rock drill is badass. I do think about the old time miners that did all that work by hand damn those were some tough dudes.
Could stemming damage the blasting cord? If the material is quartz powder, it’s quite abrasive.
Best show for men. Why on Earth would you watch broadcast TV or scripted shows on streaming services?
We use the 6-pack burn as well; I've been pleased with how it pulls. I space the holes out about 50% more than you did and load 0/2/4 delays. We're close to our ore zone and the ground is fractured, having holes too close risks raveling in and binding steels.
No respirators !!! , you have to be kidding me .
Blasting extra headroom sounds awesome! Why not blast an area to put the jaw crusher and shaker table?
In my findings, stemming is an old wives' tale.
Jason I've been watching for over a year really enjoy your content! Couple of quick suggestions. You can use cake decorating bags for stemming. I also thought that if you line your slides with sheet metal, it will reduce friction on the bags !! And maybe they won't rip !!
try V cut as cut hole jason and do 1ft distance of the rest👍
👍Like the last blast video, I can't get enough. I put on my best headphones and listen to it at least 6 times. Ugh… love it.
Great tutorial on the hammer drill!
cliff Banger CliffHanger . I was smiling this whole video
Not scaling down?
Question: why don’t you find nuggets the size of a nickel (etc) in your mine? All you show are specks. So where are nuggets formed, if not where you’re drilling.
Make it easier on your guys buy fabricating a spike foot anchor for the leg (foot) of your jack leg drill.
