Search for a Lost Gold Mine Worth $97.1 Million Dollars
Search for a Lost Gold Mine Worth $97.1 Million Dollars
We hiked for 2 days searching the mountains for a lost Gold mine that is worth $97.1 million dollars at today’s Gold prices. We almost gave up but eventually we found the shaft that leads to the mine and into the miles of secret tunnel’s that still have Gold in them. We pull some Gold out to show the World we found it.

I would kill to help dig that hole
maybe move over 10 or 15 feet to the side and make a new shaft.
Congratulations. I also like to look for treasures and gold
Pay for my trip and my time off I got three kids but I’ve shoveled a couple tons of material by hand in about 6 hours
Send me money to come out there and I’ll come dig all you f****** want
Jeff, Please be sure to keep the padding between the rope and sharp edges of the rock or lagging as youāre lowering yourself over the edge then rappelling or jugging back up. Iām your video, watch how the rope pulled hard across the lagging as you dropped into the shaft. Need to control that a little more, caus climbing ropes cut easily when hauled tight and scraped across a knife edge. When developing rock routes, repel slings are arranged, 3 points minimum, always trying to keep the rope free from running over an edge and easy to pull through once your down on the ground. If the rope has to go over an edge, than very gently ease your weight over and control the downward force on the rope, trying to find the softest part of the edge to line the rope on as you slowly lower off. Many climbers have died from cut ropes while falling, the rope reefed over an edge or flake. Take your knife to the rope and see how easy it will cut. It is frightening thinking of the times.
I never got into mining, but your knowledge of the minerals, mining, hard work getting after it and sharing in your fun way is really cool!
All be safe, Just wanted to share back to you some safety from an old climber. Kindly, Hank
How have only 5K liked this. Jeff deserves more!
I will come help!
They didn’t find shit, they don’t know shit ! Please, get real
"Are you dropping your pants max"? I dont have any hips" AHAHAHA! You guys are super funny and cool. Get that goooold!
I gave my girl a dutch oven under the sheets last night. She’s still mad at me.
Wear suspenders and no belt. You’re welcome.
I’m in SLC UT been doing concrete, construction , and played sports when I was growing up. I am very interested in working as well as learning hope to hear from you
Id help dig for the lost spanish gold. Live in colorado too
C-4 better than dynamite, use some of the free boards to build a brace to make a new wall.
Hey, isnāt that Max Barry from First Class Miners, Inc.? Awesome!
Jeff, youāre my heroā¦..
WOW-COOL !!! šøšøšššš
Close I’m on the couch eating pizza and drinking beer
Pretty sketchy down there, seems pretty high risk, not quiet like spelunking where there is less chance of a cave-in. Not like rappelling down a cliff in the mountains. Have you ever had a close call? Do you use your Geology degree for things besides prospecting? It obviously is very handy to have the knowledge for your channel and your teaching is spot on. Good video footage, made me squirm around while watching you dangle above the abyss while sitting on the couch eating my potato chips.
Hi Jeff my name is Wayne I truly appreciate all the information you give on how you dig and metal detecting I have watched all of your videos there awesome I haven’t been able to support your channel yet but in a couple of weeks I’ll be able too ill be looking forward to getting you’re guide to finding Gold keep up the awesome work and videos you do thank you
I was at Kokoweef some 30 years ago. I had heard the stories of the Spanish burning pits for trial melts, and I saw many of them with very old cutting marks on the wood in the area. There are a bunch of entrances but the Feds made the whole area protected. Mobius busted his butt out there for years. You probably found his adit.
if you want that shiny you best get off your hinny
Hope you can dig out hole to get in the lost mine if that’s the one .keep safe ,and let’s go!
lol at least he is wearing pants! I always have mine off watching these videos! Now COME OOOON LEETS GOOOO!
Dude. The edge mat is important. It between the rope and the rock to prevent damage to the rope. Damage that could lead to a broken rope and a long fall. Safety first my guy! 0:30 – good 0:44 – not good
I would love to come help dig in those mines. As long as i get to keep some AU haha. Take a small pail down there on that slope fill er up and dump it on the other side of the timbers your digging out. Right over the top just dump it. OR, have some walkies and a guy up top with a winch and just bring it up one bucket at a time. Make a pile and you can also process that when your done.
40 some years ago I lived in a gold district in Colorado, it was pretty rich in its day. We used to pan the seasonal creek that ran thru town. In the dry season I’d takes a bucket or 2 up the hill to the house cause I’d collect rainwater for panning.
Always wanted to follow that stream uphill and find where it was washing down from. So one day I did, and I located what looked like Chinese diggings on the south side of the creek about halfway up the mountain. I found Alot of sulfide deposits but I was sure they were chasing a vein.
At the time I had No idea what to do with sulfides, and kept looking , hoping to find free gold. When I left that area, I’ve never been back. I’ve checked several resources and that dig doesnt show up on any of them. Might have been on to something and never knew it.
Part of the price of getting older and wiser so you can kick yourself for not knowing better.
It might have worked to wet it – slowly it would fill and cement around a couple of larger rocks. Just my thoughts. And don’t climb above it
Howdy Jeff, can I call you Jeff? I feel like I can after watch you for so many years. Anyway I just created my Patreon account and was going to go ahead and sign up as premium for the year, but it says that it automatically renews on Aug 1st which is fine but does that mean that I pay $108.00 today and get hit again on Aug 1st? if so I’ll just wait a few days.
Thanks
I really enjoy the knowledge shared and all the laughs. If I can’t find it walking I ain’t finding it cause I ain’t going down them shafts ha ha.
I would be so down to go help you guys..
If I get in better shape and things work out ill be out to see in a year or two.
GREAT videos….. do you do guided trips to find gold ? I’m in Florida…..would like to go somewhere and chase some gold for a week or two this summer.
I’ll come help you dig brother!!!
What is the "PANTS" joke about? I don’t get it. Are they up, down, on or off? What kind of jokes are those? Why do you keep talking about another man’s pants?
Iām in my lazy boy.
05:30 it’s when I see this kind of landscape that I have a great frustration to live in France! I like being in the United States to be able to take walks in the mountains and the huge American forests in France we have almost no virgin areas at all š it’s very frustrating sincerly
I’m down to come help dig I’m in NorCal
I would love to go help u any job openings help me get away from this negativity family dont care for me no more I’d love to go help u for free ur the man Jeff. Stay koo
Hey hey hey:) I’m going to start a gold mine on my 40 acres up in Alaska:)
Someday:)
There’s some old relatively stable mineshafts with sketchy ladders that I would love to repel. Do you attach to your truck hitch pretty much?
I have filled 6 notebooks with notes of valuable knowledge that this man gives away for free! Learning hasn’t been this fun since I had to repeat sex ed in the 5th grade! Stay safe and awesome Jeff..
Love this video! I smashed that like button HARD! You achieved the perfect balance of serious and silly in this episode and I really enjoyed your guests Joanna and Mad Max! You’re livin’ my dream!
I got it tennis shoe boots.
We will be going back to this area to get even more Gold and digging out the main shaft so we can see what relics have been left behind from that time period. Can’t wait to see it and if you have ideas on how to dig that incline out ( safely ) then let us know by leaving a comment and as always smash that like button ….Smash it HARD !!!
When I was younger I was living in Northern California stand by the Trinity River digging through the old miner pile of rocks And ended up finding gold inside of a quartz rock and ended up trying to break it and lost the piece wish I didn’t break it and just saved it would have been it nice piece
Hey Jeff I want to know where do you find use metalcuz I have not got no money for a new one would you let me know this is from Toledo Ohio
Ah man..! I miss exploring those old mine shafts with the broken timbers, loose rocks, huge drops and flesh eating monsters.
I’ll come out and dig that incline out for yal..! Give me a shovel and a chunk of Joanne’s home made bread and come back in 8 hours, weeeee!
Your killer attack ninja cat šš
Need a vac truck lol or a trailer like they use for pot holin. I used to work for a company that did industrial maintenance and we used em inside power plants. We would sandblast the tubes in the boilers for inspections during outages and then wash all the grit and stuff down into the bottom of the boiler when we were done with the sandblasting and then use vac trucks with stand pipes to suck all the grit out. If you have loose material you can move a LOT of material real real quick. But man do they scream. Not sure how safe it would be and you dont wanna use one workin alone. Gotta have a vacuum breaker for emergencys in case you get a limb caught in the hose or anything lol. But man I tell ya it works good. Id recommend buyin a used truck to anybody with a real mine operation going on. Provide your own ventilation too. Suck air all the way from the entrance clear down to the end of the hose. Lol just gotta pay for diesel.
