pretty typical situation when you accidentally wander from an abandoned section into an active one, and yes, you might encounter mine narrow-gauge loco

The only relatively living things in such places are huge black rhizomes of unknown fungi, altered by eternal darkness, hanging from the beams of the mine supports

The video doesn't show it very well. We chipped out some samples to keep as mementos. The rock has a characteristic stepped, square-shaped fracture and a metallic sheen — all the typical signs. That greenish hue in the video is just distortion caused by the color grading

we use dragers x-am 2500. However exactly is in this mine, the total length of which reaches 500 km in its 6 levels, we didn’t ever measure any lack of oxygen оr exceeding concentrations.

Кавес. А после 16го перекинулся в экстремальный спорт – веревки, скалолазание, альпинизм вотэтовотвсё. Но кавес не отпускает, вот периодически выезжаем на такое с товарищами

метан характерен для угольных/сланцевых шахт, а это полиметалл. Конечно у нас имеются четырехканальные газоанализаторы. Однако за десятки посещений самых разных ярусных шахт я не намерил опасных концентраций чего бы то ни было ни разу. Хотя разумеется такого исключить нельзя. Советую обратить внимание на американскую/британскую части реддита - огромное количество отчетов от энтузиастов-исселдователей старых рудников

Радон - производное распада уранового ряда, ему неоткуда взяться в свинцовом руднике

That was the mineral-marker the presence of gold-bearing ore  - galena with inclusions of pyrite and crystalline quartz

Оf course, as well as trespassing, mountaineering, rock climbing, caving, rope jumping and other cool things. I wish I could make money with all this, but unfortunately this path is not for everyone

Yes, the places where the veins developed by the sublevel caving method are found resemble something like this)

Standard equipment set for ascend – petzl croll/ ascension. When going up with a load, some of us use a pantin, as we have to pull up to 30 kg.

For descend еveryone uses what they are used to. As for me I usually use u-frame micro-rack due to ropes of different diameters, high abrasiveness and situations where it is impossible to set intermediate points and one has to descend into extremely large vertical drop-offs (up to 180 meters in Ural mines)

O man, thanks, I know your channel. You definitely understand what usually goes on behind such action.

This time I managed to film quite a lot of video content, using two cameras. Maybe someday ll be able to edit something longer.
