    Anyone interested in mining this mineral should get in touch with me. I have discovered a previously unknown deposit, some of which is even visible on the surface. And there is fantastic quality. I don’t have cash to start operations and so it still sits undetected by geologists and humanity in general. I am not asking for investors but rather quite the opposite. I want to find someone with the ability to open operations in exchange I’d only request a small stake in the company or simply a decent job position in the mining operations I could walk you to the exact location or provide as many pounds of samples as needed for testing although I must walk quite a long distance tranversing waterways and bear infested wilderness and I can only haul around 150lbs per backpack, per trip. I could make someone incredibly rich in exchange for a decent job basically.

    You guys definitely need to do alot more getting out of the studio .
    Yes , it’s expensive, but it would set you in a new class of editorial /scientific / historic show .

    This video cured my anxiety.

    Colorado rocks for rocks 😬👍 Anyway there is no empirical scientific evidence those crystals are 33,000,000 years old, that’s pure theoretical conjecture that’s taught in our modern biased educational systems just like macro evolution. Let’s just enjoy these gems and minerals for what they are .. gifts from God that display His glory just like the galaxies and nebulae do in the night sky. Thanks for filming the tour, as a long time mineral collector with a couple Rhodochrosites in my cabinets I found this really interesting. Peace ✌️

    Did this new portal to the Sweet Home Mine become profitable enough to continue operation in the face of rampant inflation of 2022?

  10. Sara Hoilman on January 21, 2023 at 3:28 am

  15. shabbar ali on January 21, 2023 at 3:30 am

    what did they do to moveout the smoke and dust after the blast ?

  16. Omega O on January 21, 2023 at 3:30 am

    Thanks for the video! I would have cried and died once I touched it. This is my favorite stone. 😍

  17. brassware on January 21, 2023 at 3:31 am

    how much is rhodochrosite? That little gem she harvested, how much would it retail for? I don’t understand how these guys can go YEARS, 50 hours a week, 4 dudes, wasting explosives, water, electricity, pumping oxygen, etc. Its gotta be expensive…. They go years and they finally find rhodochrosite and its 2 inches thick and 16 inches in diameter? How expensive could that be?? Its gotta be super expensive.

  18. Jeffrey Allen on January 21, 2023 at 3:33 am

    So awesome!

  19. Hunt4RedOctober on January 21, 2023 at 3:33 am
