THE LOST DUTCHMAN MINE !!!!! Secret Location Revealed . ask Jeff Williams
It’s The mother of all Lost Gold mines and we take you to the location of where it all started , the Superstition mountains. Do you dare look for it behind Weavers Needle as others have and follow the clues that where left behind by The Peralta family . We begin our look at one of the most Searched after Lost Gold mines in American History, The Lost Dutchman Mine.
you almost tripped over it. you can see it in shot
Ive been near the location. it seems that climbing gear may be necessary. It was hard enough to carry what I needed to survive let alone what I needed to get to the mine. That’s why they used mules.
Wow that mountain looks incredible!!! And hmmmmm that foul play sounds really interesting if I were to go I’d definitely would want to investigate, and man ooooh man! These towns look too darn cool!
Great video!
2:43, is that Leonard Nimoy narrating?
Is "Nevada Jack" the same guy the does the Two Toes YOUTUBE channel?
the dutchmen worked at the vulture mine. the gold he claimed he found assayed to come from the vulture mine
Hi jeff have you ever gone looking for gold in Australia perhaps somewhere in Adelaide it’s just I live there and I’m a big fan I’ve been begging to get my dad to let me go and do some gold panning so I can sell it at the local market with my dad so yeah if you have can you tell me did you find any gold???
Someone should fly a drone around the area to get a looksee. That would be a lot safer and would allow someone to get some knowledge of what is actually up in those mountains.
the lost duchmine haha
i live 15 mins from this tourist trap. 😀 its interesting to see out siders view on it.. my dad worked with the women who owned it before he retired from the city of apache junction as a engineer.. small world. i like the mining tour.. last time i went the guy had quite a few to drink. heh.. was funny he try to make ou think you were going very far down.. but like maybe a foot in elevation you drop. its good to see people enjoy this place. it almost burnt down( well not really… i mean it could of and the owner was stressing.. but the fire fighters were doing there job.. i think it was in good hands from being burnt down couple years back do to a wild fire..)
Well sunny Jim I see you got you hog leg on and got your canteen..You sure your not going up there looking for the gold mine??? And yes I do believe in superstitions…..You have a drone? Like to see what it looks like up there, from far away…
The gold is at the end of that chem-trail!
God your a ass hole
Jeff you know Terry Carter? He interviews all them ol heads an hard rock miners, prospecters getting their stories for they go to that big gold mine in the sky or where ever in the hell it is.
the mine is in Utah
I was there about 7 years ago and my boy at the time was 7 and we walked into the "Brothel". Well let me tell you that the girl in there was really trying to be authentic because the heat combined with the heavy dress she was wearing smelled like you-know-what. It was offensive and tantalizing all at the same time….lol.
there cryin bout campin out noooo wayyyy masybee
So was it the mine or the dutchman who was lost?
Clearly this dude found a meth jackpot… no gold, however.
I spent several days around the needle back in 1988 and there is a lot of funny feelings real or imaginary but it is there someone is watching .
I only live 10 miles from The Superstition Mountains…..I need to get up there more often with my detector.
HI JEFF WILLIAMS, I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAVE A PHONE NUMBER SO I CAN CALL YOU AND SEE IF YOU TAKE CRIPPLED UP OLD WORKERS . I CAN’T WALK INTO A UNDER GROUND MINE BUT I CAN WALK AROUND ABOVE GROUND.
Nevada Jack…
Are them that boots "GATORS" or when yer traipsing thru the desert???
so pyrite crystalizes cubes and is shiny it can flash then flash then …… strt to die>>??
I’m going to Lost Dutchman’s this weekend. I may not come back but if I do Ill be sure to save you a piece or two.
Awesome, go check out randsburg
Jeff you could talk about "The Lost Dutchman or The Peralta ‘s" all day and not loose my attention. Awesome video!! Howdy Nevada Jack
so that last rock in thatr mine was worth 15 bucks?? pyriteee son
That’s awesome!!! I live 10 min away from there. Known the owner for years. Great place!!
If it’s on the north end? Why do people enter from the south end? Hur?
Mr. Williams, that is a wonderful telling of the legend. I would like to add a couple of things that you didn’t mention. There was an earthquake that occurred in 1887 that was felt from Sonora to Phoenix. The local newspapers reported large dust clouds coming from the mountains. The mine that was named "Lost Dutchman Mine" had collapsed during that earthquake. He was never able to go back to that mine during his life. He died with all the gold he was able to retrieve from his last trip. The maps you were showing on your show we maps of the Peralta mines. They were not maps the Peralta’s made, but made by people that travelled to and from the mines during their operations. There were 8 active mines during the time the Peralta’s decided to leave the area. They had been warned of the pending attack and were attempting to get out before it happened. Unfortunately they didn’t make it. The Indians were waiting for them. The Dutchman did find one of the Peralta mines. 2 of the mines were split off from the other ones which were clustered together. He found one of the mines split off. There is more to the story, but I do love traveling to the mountains and wonder what it must have been like to be alive during that time. Thank you for the wonderful video
Hint Jeff it was called the Bulldog mine in Apache Junction. i did some work there the brown hemitite in that area contains good quantity of fine gold. and the pink metamorphic granite rock makes good looking material for drive ways and sells for a good price. that is a load gold area

You are Crazy Jeff!!!! Love it. keep up the great work. Tons of great information passed on to us in a fun way!!!

Jeff n Slim…
If hundreds if not thousands of miners have scoured the Superstitions, you’d think somebody probably found that gold and moved it or took it out by now.
So slimes real name is Nevada Jake uh?
I was there about a month ago!
Thank you for the history lesson. Hoping all is well with you Slim and the crew. Peace from the east
Hey Jeff,
My lady and I are looking for a place to go on vaca in December, and I WANNA FIND SOME GOOOLD! I’m up in the Northeast and it’s gonna be a little freezing up here to do any panning so I’m thinking about taking my pans and my woman and heading south or west. We’d like something with some beautiful scenery but not a lot of tourists STEALING OUR GOLD! Georgia and California seem to be pretty good spots in terms of gold recovered there, but I figured I’d ask the pro!
There are still yahoo’s traipsing this area. The Superstitions can be very dangerous. I do not suggest going there in the summer or warm weather even. Take more water than you think you’ll need…even in cool weather. The desert WILL kill you if you don’t prepare properly. If you’re hobby prospecting, I’d go elsewhere.
almost had that old time feel until I saw chemtrails in the sky.
how do yot have your own show on Discovery Channel, Jeff?!?! C’mon!! Let’s Go!!!!
Jeff, where’s the link with the history of the mine? SO COME ON, WE’RE HERE!
THAT ONE IS A 10 THANKS JEFF…
god p[lace too get arrested
Good on Ya Jeff, Very entertaining mate. It would of been a hard life back then. Just Subscribed to your Channel,
please check out my channel and Sub back cheers Jeff, keep up the great work.
I worked near there last year at Whitlow Ranch down the 60. I wish I knew the history then. Doesn’t look like they’re sending me back this year. But if so, I’m still not going up that mountain. I didn’t even take home some petroglyphs on rocks I found this year near Painted Rock. Bad juju. If I didn’t make it, or if it’s not gold, I’m leaving it where it lies
When you done with all the exciting places in the U.S Jeff,come down under and find real gold in Australia..Few mysteries down here too.
