Opening My Gold Mine! Part 5: Worst Job In The Mine, Mucking and Barring Down
Welcome back to the next installment of our captivating series, “Opening My Gold Mine.” In this episode, Jason and @mineoperator are hard at work continuing the rehabilitation process deep down the drift. Safety and efficiency are our top priorities as we transform this abandoned mine into a productive gold-producing venture.
Join us as we muck and spread material across the mine floor. Our goal? To create a flat, level, and dry surface, enabling us to efficiently move muck from the face to the surface for transport to the mill. It’s all about preparing the groundwork for the exciting steps ahead.
Safety is paramount in underground mining, and in this video, we demonstrate our commitment to it. Watch as we meticulously scale the ribs and back of the mine, eliminating the hazards of falling rocks and loose debris. Ensuring the well-being of our miners is a fundamental part of our mission.
The final segment of this video showcases our efforts in securing loose ground areas by setting sturdy stulls. These supports ensure that unstable sections are fortified and pose no danger as we navigate and work around them.
Stay tuned for upcoming episodes in this series, where we’ll delve deeper into our journey – from reaching the elusive gold vein to the thrilling moments of drilling, blasting, and ultimately processing the ore at the mill to extract our gold. Don’t miss a moment of this incredible adventure!
