Dangerous McCormick Uranium Mine

Dangerous McCormick Uranium Mine

Recently I went out to Utah looking for some uranium mines. One that I was interested in finding was the McCormick mine. I wasn’t able to find any info on mining data sites but I remember seeing a picture of it and it seems very interesting with its steel bracing. In this video I find what I was looking for and I wasn’t disappointed.

    Two words "Radon gas".

    Makes you wonder if all the mine workers ended up getting cancer and dying

    That drone shot at the end was really cool!

  4. Julie Mendelsohn on May 23, 2023 at 2:46 pm

    Thanks!

    Would you die if you ate those yellow rocks?

  6. truthnsoaring on May 23, 2023 at 2:49 pm

    Where is the women workers if women are so = to a man? Lol

    that was really neat with the black light! Awesome explore!

  8. Rous369 on May 23, 2023 at 2:50 pm

    Your pretty funny, lol, you are in a dark mine and the only one in there, and your like, "it’s so quiet in here, weird" I had to start laughing because what were you expecting a party in there😉😂😁

    Great Videos!

    You dont want to be contanimated

  12. E vazkee on May 23, 2023 at 2:52 pm

    You alone???? Not smart

  13. leopard tiger on May 23, 2023 at 2:54 pm

    Stop that rotten sound track

  14. PilotChip on May 23, 2023 at 2:54 pm

    Really enjoying your content. I was wondering if you could go into more detail on how the different (minerals?) carnatite? were mined or extracted from the rock. Were the miners at certain mines exposed to radiation such that they developed health problems, etc. I don’t know much about mining radioactive substances which is probably why I’m so fascinated with your channel. Keep up the good work!

    Everything was great but you did not need the loud 🔊 🔊 alarm for so long. That ruined the video for me.

  16. Darin Slater on May 23, 2023 at 2:54 pm

    Would you be willing to post GPS cords for McCormick, since it’s so difficult to find?

  17. Andrew Norgrove on May 23, 2023 at 2:55 pm

    Its odd that both Australia and the U.S.A pull Uranium out of similar looking terrain ( iron rich red rock ) the green glow ! is that the same glow they used to cover aircraft instruments back in the 1940’s and ww2

  18. George on May 23, 2023 at 2:58 pm

    Hasn’t processing improved with uranium so less rich ore is profitable?

  19. Flint Sky on May 23, 2023 at 2:58 pm

    I’m guessing your name is Dangerous McCormick? And you’re exploring a uranium mine?

  20. Andy Roo on May 23, 2023 at 3:01 pm

    After watching this video I found this interesting old video on Radon Gas etc.

    You should probably be wearing a hard hat!

    My uncle was a miner up in Elliott Lake.
    The uranium mines have been capped for years now, but surrounding area residents suffer and die because of a type of dirty cancer as the doctors have called it, in the area.
    Many think it is caused by the old uranium mines, seeing as most effected are within just a few kilometres radius of the old mines.
    Unfortunately this dirty cancer took my uncle too.
    I’d never goto a uranium mine, capped or not.

    This reminds me of some of the old cinnabar stopes that I’d checked out.

  24. Hadley Scott McIntyre on May 23, 2023 at 3:04 pm

    I love that cave but its hot scarey

  25. John Dover on May 23, 2023 at 3:05 pm

    why don’t you have any detectors with you???

  26. in·trac·ta·ble maskvp mGy on May 23, 2023 at 3:05 pm

    For those that are OMG! with the roentgen (geiger) counter buzzing. Take refuge in the inverse square law and distance. It’s the type of exposure that is harmful

    Join me next week as I explore the elephants foot and later this month I’ll be exploring the four reactor cores at Fukushima

  28. RockyMtnGobblers on May 23, 2023 at 3:10 pm

    I’m no expert on Uranium or uranium mines but I’ve heard from a uranium miner that it sticks to your lungs shouldn’t you be wearing a respirator?

  29. Daniel Becker on May 23, 2023 at 3:13 pm

    Old miner here. Completely stupid. You never go back to abandoned workings. 1 cubic foot of sandstone is about 130lb.

  30. Dead Brother on May 23, 2023 at 3:16 pm

    I wonder if breathing the dust your feet stir up is a bad thing.

  31. Andrzej Zieliński on May 23, 2023 at 3:17 pm

    There’s a methode to make an explosion before you enter the mine that will trigger rock collapse. It should be safe to enter after a explosion.

  32. Аналитика 365 on May 23, 2023 at 3:18 pm

    ГУЛАГ тоже у вас был…

  33. J Borg on May 23, 2023 at 3:19 pm

    You really need a limiter on the audio of your videos. That counter is crazy loud

  34. Philip Buarque on May 23, 2023 at 3:20 pm

    Omg. The dangerous uranium mine killed Kenny.
    You bastard!

  35. Me First on May 23, 2023 at 3:20 pm

    What minerals make the rocks reddish color?

  36. Gabriel Belmont on May 23, 2023 at 3:22 pm

    sweet Jesus that geiger counter is like 2 grand !

  37. Victor Joseph on May 23, 2023 at 3:22 pm

    isn’t Uranium radio active?

  38. Hadley Scott McIntyre on May 23, 2023 at 3:25 pm

    Oh wow a little vein of radium?

  39. AusNorman on May 23, 2023 at 3:27 pm

    Cool, the rocks glow!

  40. Camp Prevost on May 23, 2023 at 3:28 pm

    That would scare me to death – makes me nervous watching! Lol

  41. Richie Wellock on May 23, 2023 at 3:28 pm

    Better torch next time you are in that mine, really interesting

  42. Matts Drillingforfood on May 23, 2023 at 3:28 pm

    I think we still have the ore charts and mine maps for all of those mines in that particular area.
    There are used to be a 25’ diameter shaft just south of there but I believe they have closed them all off. Most of those mines they purposely pulled the pillars and caved them in. They even been mined back into to see if they missed anything. They did miss a pretty big area that was mined out in the late 80’s early 90’s.

    John Wayne died and a lot of the film crew got cancer from filming by old uranium mines!

  44. kiss peter on May 23, 2023 at 3:32 pm

    the more you know …. When can we expect a follow up on this mine ?

  45. Swerv Splatt on May 23, 2023 at 3:33 pm

    I remember hearing some guy talk one time(or many). Galen Windsor, I think his name was?….

  46. gibsonrocker17 on May 23, 2023 at 3:37 pm

    It’s interesting to me that this kind of sandstone landscape is as rich with uranium as it is. I live out near STG and there are a number of old uranium mines out this way, also. Not nearly to the extent that there is in the Swell or around Moab/Canyonlands, but still quite a bit. I haven’t personally explored any of them and I think they’ve been sealed due to the population explosion out this way, but they do show up on some of the USGS maps. Even if they can’t be explored (it’s unlikely I’d do that anyway), it’s still an awesome piece of history.

  47. Dave Kreitzer on May 23, 2023 at 3:37 pm

    Need better lighting 😉 ! 👌✔️

  48. Amulet FPV on May 23, 2023 at 3:38 pm

    Hard. Hat.

  49. I ett Ord on May 23, 2023 at 3:40 pm

    which you had better lighting.

  50. Justin G on May 23, 2023 at 3:41 pm

    Are you getting blasted with radiation?
