I wonder if theres still gold there today?
Yea ok…
This guy is irritating. You’re here to learn about this stuff from the wrong guy. Check out the channel Mysteries of the Superstition mountains. Ron is in a bunch of them along with the best people to get this info from.
That money belongs to the Gallardo family. Their great grand father was murdered over it. Left the children destitute. I’ll be following up soon personally. The curse is very real and I’m.coming for you.
Beware potential visitors, the desert will kill you if you don’t have the knowledge and tenacity to survive in it.
Why would anyone a have a stone map or any map at all unless it was a paper map.
Steve is a genius gonna have to try some of his inventions
Drone!!!!!!
Incredibly bad series. Looks for a lot of stuff never finds much
Be careful going in old mines for they could have old diniomite with the nitro leaking out or a charge that hasn’t gone off a raido could set of a cap and blow u to peces 🧟
The lady in the film showing attending to Jacob Waltz was a black lady who had befriended Jacob and he was living at her home when he passed away. Legend has it that there was a lot of gold under his bed. She spent a long time in the supers looking for Jacobs mine and it seems that she’s spent a lot of time looking around Weavers Needle. ….she never found anything. The group she was with actually used ropes and scaled Weavers Needle
Oh Brother! Another Al Capone’s vault..
Donna rignay
Camp and hike all throughout this place. Don’t f up, its unforgiving
Found Al Capone’s vault yet?
I killed my TV around 2002 due to it making me stupid. It’s worse now from what I see.
“You want some geology, I show you geology..just meet me out front”LOL I know dude was on his nerves haha

Got to love when armatures tell the professionals, yeah, thats the stuff. you got lucky…
The Dutch Man killed the Peralta Brothers original owners of the Mine, they were kind enough to inviting him to prospect with them showing him the mine but he got hold fever killing the brothers shooting them point blank and taking over the mine, he was just and scum Bag that’s all.
The title should read… Lost Dutchman Gold Mine Literally Not Discovered In Arizona.
The Lost Dutchman is on Weston Pass in Colorado.
History channel : lies and supposition …. yaaaa
I couldn’t stomach watching this whole episode but I am curious did Scott get out his trusty visine bottle full of battery acid to test a rock?
Scott Wolter is so wrong about goldfield being the dutchmans mine. LMFAO he is so clueless
WE DO NOT GIVE THE OLD TIMERS ENOUGH CREDIT FOR HOW THEY CAN SEND GENERATIONS OF PEOPLE ALL OVER AMERICA LOOKING FOR THE SAME MINES GOLD OR LOST TREASURE ITS ALL FUN AND GOOD BUT WILL THE TRUE TREASURE HUNT HAPPEN AND WILL THOSE INVOLVED SPEAK OUT MAYBE NEXT TIME RAY’S
Hot!!!!!!!!!!! Water!!!!!!!!!!!
If there’s a mine around that mountain range then there should be spoil deposited somewhere around it.
Maybe the lost Dutchman did actually have fools gold and ppl back in the day didnt realize they were scammed
Why don’t they get a PSYCHIC on the case?
there is no gold in that area, just a story that’s it.
I’m a forensic geologist this isn’t a real replica it’s a replica of a replica
Why do t they get a psychic on the case?
IF it WAS there the government has stolen it. If you actually believe this Hollyweird style production is anything near truth & reality well…
Allegedly, the lost Dutchman mine has recently been found. Unfortunately I didn’t discover it.
This guy is not even close
I dnt know why but the host bothers me..I’m sure he’s a great guy,he jst reminds me of my wealthy relatives..they think the world was made for them..and put themselves into any and every important thing or event…I’m sure I’m jst being a jerk. But jst somthing I thought of…and any comment helps the channel..love all you guys out there..stay safe..the world is on 🔥
I no about that finger print for gold. I’m looking at 70 soon. Got some of that kinda gold. Probably said to much now.
SO many artifacts have been sold to private collectors!!! Has anyone tried to get the collectors together?!! Museums could also have some!!!
Why doesn’t he have a metal detector with him exploring?!!
More likely this area came up with a story about treasure to try and get tourists. All this is a joke. How much do they make off each treasure hunter that stops in asking for info? There is zero evidence of any kind of treasure. Also, all these sketchy anonymous “clues” are all produced by the show. Would be fascinating if they would ever actually find something though.
Be careful climbing up rock ledges because it’s much harder to climb down and much more dangerous gravity can trick you
I was born and raised in Arizona. And I love hiking we had a group that used to hike every month and we spent most of our time in the winter months on the western end of the superstitions …only once or twice did I find any geological proof that there might be gold. There used to be aresta for grinding gold ore on this end of the supers but it’s gone now …the forest service destroyed it many years ago. They also destroyed the old Reavis Ranch House. Such a shame.
This video talks about the possibility of the old mine being on the East End of the supers. Unfortunately I’m almost 70 years old and not able to hike like I used to. Many years ago, Bob Corbin was our state’s Attorney General he had a great interest in the mine did a lot of research. I do believe he thought it existed. In one of his writings he showed of cigarette holder that had gold and quartz laid into it. He never said he knew the owner but I knew he knew him…. when the gold was analyzed it was found to be from a mine that had never been recorded. From what I understand gold is like a fingerprint each specimen has a history to tell.
Let’s all keep a tight grip on reality here.. the government owns all that. They already got it.
This was found hundreds of years ago by the pioneers that actually roamed the Earth long before we did. You’d be naive to think much different.
I can save you all a lot time , don’t bother with that map …
Search to the west !
There you will find it !
The cheese factor is very sharp.
Im thinking; with all the doubt, wonder, fibs, misdirection and misconception; the mountains are mis- named and should be called " The Suspicions." Or maybe, Super suspicions.
maybe it’s on federal land you guys can’t dig, maybe the shaft is buried. Heck maybe they won’t even give permits to film??
treasure of oak island 2.0 and they never found nothing lol
Yeah this show is definitely been a bummer And if you do any research on a lot of the stuff that they’re looking into getting into it’s almost like they’re trying to Create a diversion
