Truly an abandoned mine. I need to go see this, cheers bud.

Rule of thumb for caves if your voice echos, cave should be sturdy. If it don’t echo, that means the ground above and around you absorbed your sound, meaning it’s loose, and not compact. Higher chance of cave in.

That is one of the most beautiful mines I've seen on KZfaq videos perfect engineering

Thanks for that, first time i have seen some of what my dad used to talk about years ago when he used to dig down there with Eccles cave club, always used to go on about the machinery

Oh my God, the stone work!!!

Wowwwwww! What an amazingly AWSOME mine! All that beautiful history buried down there! Thank you for taking us to see it! How on earth did they build those lifts with no proper lighting? It beggars belief! I come from a long line of miners and have always wondered what it must have been like for them and, thru all your eyes, I'm seeing what I've always longed to see!

I've just watched this and the level of workmanship for the 1800s... I just cannot get my head around it.... I'm going watch all your videos as you guys doing a great job

A colossal amount of lead ore was extracted by man and beast from these mines The stone portals are way north of awesome building them in the gloom and so neat and accurate to perfectly form the arch much brain and muscle was used as they are mostly intact after all this time the colours are beautiful in your lights ,Thanks both of you for showing it to every one.

Wow amazing so beautiful history buried there.thank you for sharing👍😍

Work of art

Beautiful industrial artifacts. Fabulous.

The winding station and cage is brilliant just shows the work that's gone on too make one part of a mine back then .

Hi Antonio, whoa that was one stunning explore, I have seen a lot of mine video's but nothing like this before, I'm speechless. Seeing the lift cage and all of the winding gear was just so cool, it's a shame that it isn't being preserved but if it was then access would probably be denied. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

Fantastic. I used to explore the mines in weardale, never saw any lift cages.

sooo your gas detector is sort of alarming a bit there. Any chance you thought to dismiss the alarm or get out of there if it was something to be concerned about?

Nice mine snd explore, surprising the man cage and hoist is still in place.👍🇳🇿

Thanks Antonio. I really enjoy your videos.

Damn mate I didn't know that you had this other channel here until now that was a very cool man lift in their now too 👍and it was an awesome explore to see too

That's a stunner, going to have to add it to my endless list of to do's lmao

What an awesome mine. Where to start?.....the stone work, the lift, the lift room, the steps leading to the lift room that were built into the arch. Great video!

Probably 15 years since I was last there.

another wonderful video , what a amazing mine , the title of this video should be ''Indiana Llufriu and the mine of doom'' , who needs Harrison ford when we have you ! thank you so much for your great videos and the work you put in making them.

It’s hard to believe that’s still there when you’re warm in bed and nobody’s there to see it. (Just sayin ma thoughts there)🤣

I wonder how that lift cage winding drum was powered? maybe hydraulic from and steam engine on the surface perhaps. What is even more of a wonder his how did they get all that gear AND the stone down for the tunnels in the first place?

I quite enjoyed the pump mechanism. A shaft pump, the shaft extending down to the right of the cage. Its piston was clearly visible in the hoist operator area on the left. Not sure if steam or compressed air - I think it’s the former but where is the boiler? Thanks for taking the short straw 😉

Hi buddy what kind of mine is it a coal mine or some other mine

Hey up me duck.

Typical Noodle, says this is the deepest bit, then proceeds to go from waist to armpit depth lmao 🤣

Im all for safety., but is there a way dude can adjust the bloody volume on that blasted O2 monitor? If not he could try a piece of tape over the speaker to at least muffle it down enough so you can be heard. I know the monitor is working as designed, but the volume of it nearly make your video unwatchable because you can barely be heard over it.

Can't help but feel sad for those poor pit ponies. Imagine being stuck underground your whole life. Yes I know humans did it too and I know it was hard for them as well, but they were at least nominally there by choice. The ponies were just put there and expected to deal.

Intrepid philosopher.
