- South Africa's TauTona mine, real life alchemy, and Halicephalobus Mephisto. Footage from the 2012 documentary, "Down to the Earth's Core".
We have travelled into space and looked deep into the universe's depths, but the world beneath our feet remains unexplored and unseen. Now, that's about to change. For the first time in one epic unbroken shot, we embark on an impossible mission - using spectacular computer generated imagery to smash through three thousand miles of solid rock, and venture from our world into the underworld and on to the core of the Earth itself.
It's a journey fraught with danger. One thousand feet down we find ourselves inside one of the planet's most volatile places - the San Andreas Fault. Caught between two huge rock slabs, we watch as stress builds and then releases. It unleashes an earthquake and blasts us on towards rivers of molten rock, explosive volcanoes, tears in the Earth's crust and giant tornadoes of liquid metal. But for every danger, there are wonders beyond imagination.
Four hundred feet below the surface, a three hundred million year old fossilized forest, with every leaf and every piece of bark perfectly preserved. At one thousand feet down we enter a cave of giant crystals, glistening in deadly 122 degree heat. More than two miles underground we find buried treasure - gold and gems. Deeper still there are valuable resources - salt, oil, coal and iron. And over one hundred miles down we see the sparkling beauty of diamonds.
As we descend we piece together our planet's extraordinary story. We rewind time to discover how prehistoric forests became modern-day fuel. 1700 feet down a layer of rock reveals the extraordinary story of the dinosaurs' cataclysmic death. We watch stalactites form and gold grow before our eyes. The deeper we travel into the underworld the more we understand our world above the surface. A bigger picture takes shape - a cycle of destruction and creation, driven by the core that sustains our dynamic planet and makes the Earth the only planet with life in a seemingly lifeless universe.
Until, finally, three thousand miles down, we reach the core. Inside it lie the secrets of life as we know it - the magnetic force field that protects life on Earth from the sun's deadly rays, the ancient heat source that keeps our planet alive. Down to the Earth's Core brings the latest science together with breathtaking computer generated imagery. The result is an unmissable journey into an extraordinary world - full of dangers, wonders and secrets. And it's all down there, beneath our feet, right now waiting to be discovered. - Наука та технологія
"WE'VE REACHED THE DEEPEST POINT EVER ACHIEVED IN CGI ANIMATION!" If you're going to make a documentary about the world's deepest gold mine, can't you actually show the REAL thing????
Yes
Right. Deepest point a mine goes into the planet is the kidd creek copper mine in timmins anyway. They couldn't even get that right.
it would expose hollow earth
do you expect them to risk their life, plus how would they even have footage of the nebula.
@@gpgt1
kidd mine "the deepest non marine point on earth"
so, just a technicality. the deepest shaft from mouth of mine to bottom is approx 3000 m, whereas the Mponeng gold mine from top to bottom is nearly 4000 m.. isnt kidd mine toast now? no one wants to operate it or something
What a waste. Should have just taken us into the actual mine. It would have been cheaper and looked better than this crap.
Learn to read or get your school taxes refunded. This film is about the nature of gold (alchemy) the mine is incidental. I worked at the 8600-foot level in one.

What's your point? Did you read the description? It says....South Africa's TauTona mine, real life alchemy, and Halicephalobus Mephisto. Footage from the 2012 documentary, "Down to the Earth's Core"
And I'm still waiting for the real life part. The video's a sham.
Hans-Juergen KIRSTEIN
The title's weight leans towards the expression "DEEPEST mine" instead of "gold alchemy". Most of us have seen some gold during our lives but how many have ever seen the inside of an almost 4km deep mine?! Not many I'm "guessing". The title should have been something like "Deep within the Earth - Gold Alchemy".
+Hans-Juergen KIRSTEIN no this video is about the center of the earth.
Harsh
Tautona is not the deepest mine, deepist is Mponeng at 4.3km. Mponeng was previously called Western Deep Levels, I worked there in the mid 80's.
Good to know
Okay buddy, I worked too in Western Deep Levels in late 60´s. I was an overseas mining engineering student in a summer job (VCR and CL reefs)
wow have u seen alines their??
what u r doing now a days?
@@longjohnsilver7986
I worked at Westonaria late 80's . Hated every minute underground but now proud I did it to provide for my family.
Proud to have worked in deepest mines
I'm sure the ladies enjoyed as well! Lmao
Great job. Hiiii
Can i talk with u. I m student of mining engineering
No your not
Why murphy dear?
Looks like a awesome setting for a game

I was 2.7km down that mine and without the ventilation fans, It would have been unbearable. It's scary when you think how far into the earth we have dug......
I like how the full documentary is recommended.
I love the atmosphere for the first minute or so. It looks like an alien world!
Goofy ahh
am fully impressed by watching this video
This went from a mine to a star exploding
Diamondminer 420 afterwards to microscopic life
I wonder if they found a strong-hold and a mineshaft and a spawner.
Ok
thats great, we have never left low earth orbit, but gold is out there scully
HEY!! I wanna hear about the Devil Worms...
James Henry yeah
They shouldn't nick name them devil worms..how disrespectful!!!
It s Rock Life ! They eat rocks..
Rock worms!!
.rock tht becomes fossile..petrol and clay...also become bone..and flesh ..
It s sll atoms..energy...
.thry r our ancestors!!
Nothing is made to b evil except human ignorance: only when we see th connection, th unity of all life as it stem from Light: gold being th fastest Atom to cool down from Light to matter!!
Faithful to source..light
Gold is found inside our DNA and more inside our pineal gland:
Th unity Consciousness..th lovv Frequency, activates th gold in our brain: thus we becomes intuitively intelligent: we channel information From th unity field of Eternity: GoDD force'..or fuel of life...wether we see th light underground or not, it is there! We see dark only cause we r still 2 eye balls tht ONLY handle 400~700 nanometers of Light Speed...
And light got no Speed limit.. Sorry folks..your Nobel prizes?? Whatever..th ONLY one who truly deserved it was Tesla..but..his books were confiscated...
Too good for th peasants, th elite said!! Just like orgasms were censored by th aristocRATs..lol
I hope we..today....trace th dots to see th pic ..of this unified universe..
Rock Worms..plzz..
.th origin of life.. haha..
Why despise anything?💜
Unless devil just meant ignorance..
Then we r ALL ignorants in some or another away
the video said that no one person ever gets go down this mine... I wonder. then how they'd make this mine??

From an ex geologist, pretty good job. Much better than most.
Yeah... I already watched the full documentary of "Down to The Earth's Core HD)". Oh look! It is on my sidebar.
Real life alchemy is just called... chemistry. Chemistry is the word you're looking for.
I’m not sure you understand what alchemy is.
@@theshawnkelly Alchemy was a precursor to chemistry that used dogma and superstition to explain and derive results. It was very inconsistent, compared to the science of chemistry we have today.
@@Aerostryker2 That's a poor description of it (indicative of your understanding towards it), but of course a major part of alchemy was turning things such as rocks or lead, into gold. The way the narrator used it as a metaphor was perfectly fine example.
@@theshawnkelly Yes, and a major part of it was also the search for panacea. Neither panacea nor transmutation ever actually worked - there is no 'real life alchemy.' Now... is there any real reason you care? Or else, why did you choose start up with the ad hominems on a post that's four years old..? Just to be obtuse, I'm guessing. You must be a real blast at parties.
Thanks for sharing!
Are you sure about that?
very interesting, thank you
Isn't it amazing how all 94 natural elements are found on Earth?
Or rather we've found 94 naturally occurring elements on Earth, no guarantee that all are present on the planet or have been fully discovered. The distribution of other naturally occurring elements could be so infinitesimally small that little to none was seeded on Earth, or may have had such short half lives that they decayed long before we were aware of their existence.
Funny I never new gold and quarts where found together, and I've seen it mentioned now twice in a few days.
So digging out rock and minerals to find rock and minerals 😂
Lol😂
Mine craft graphics are better D
+aducksecho your right
YEAH!!!
*HELL YEAH!!!*
lmaoo
Now with RTX
I always wondered why deep mines are hot (3.5 km down?). Is it heat from inside the earth or is it just the natural climate just like it would get colder if you went 3.5 km above sea level?
it's believed by scientists to be a combination of residual heat from the planets formation, heat from the friction of denser materials sinking down toward the core and the radioactive decay of elements. The heat increases significantly as you approach the mantle at 40kms. Rock at that depth behaves differently due to the immense pressure. 12km's is the farthest human's have ever been able to drill.
Yeah, so the rest is still kind of theoretical.
Good video
History, here is another gold mine to make a TV show of.
Sciency update, in 2017, 4 years after this video was posted gold formation was observed to have occurred during neutron star collision along with all the heavier elements on the periodic table not during supernovae. The amount of gold formed in the collision was estimated to be between 3 and 13 times the mass of the earth. Bring on the mining ship Red Dwarf to go fetch some!
Did he just say all gold originates from an exploding star? Like no more is being made anymore? That's it?!
What is it about man that drives him to such dangers and expenses to attain a mineral who's primary use is superficial?
+idriwzrd it is highly used in everyday electronics, dentistry, medicine and aerospace - so not just superficial
+Jane Doe Its mostly used to store wealth. Most of the gold ever found is hidden away. We wouldnt need to mine this much gold if we used all that gold for the things you mentioned.
MONEY
+idriwzrd nah dood primary use is alchemy.
Not only that, but once mined and refined, most gold is promptly reburied..in bank vaults!
Should make this mine on oculus rift. Id buy it.
With a mode running away from serial killer clowns or mole people.....
Jip
Gold is manufactured in Neuton star events. Not supernova. Hence, the high neutron count in gold.
Computer graphics...you disappoint everyone ..
That mine is deeper than the deepest oil wells here in Los Angeles. You South Africans have us beat.
I hid at the bottom of this mine once…
My Student loans still manage to find me.
The deeper you go,there you'll find material emancipation grill.
Informative
Hmmmm........good one
60' at best will make yiur skin red and possibly blister if its that temprature for long enough but is not hot enough to burn off skin. A cup of tea is about 60*
Great video BUT I will stay placer mining lol But to each there own, thanks for sharing this cheers
IT REMINDS ME ABOUT IGI PROJECT 2 CONVERT STRIKE Mission 2

Is this a 3D ride?
60° really
Just think. If humans could overcome their fascination with yellow rocks, all this could be avoided.
Yellow rock is use for resource not only for fashion trend so no
@@ebifuraion932 Only 11 percent of gold is used for industry and is substitutable. The biggest attraction to mining gold is the price we put on it due to historic monetary reasons. Lower price would mean less extremes to extracting it. ,
What about #KGF_Mines #INDIA,.
The fuck are they talking about. I mine much further in Minecraft, and I don't burn!
i was thinkin the same thing!
minecraft is only a game
am living in mining town biggest gold producer in South Africa Carltonville
Damn! So the last thing i see and hear just before i go to sleep is "they are called Devil Worms" IM SO SCARED! D:
Ok
So how did we build the rails ??????
Thanks
This video came from the video to the earth core.

How is it alchemy?

Gold atoms are alive now?
yup
With 3.9 km below South Africa...
Quite a planet earth?
And man came on planet earth.

Do cameras mysteriously stop working that far below ground? WTF is this late-90s FMV bullshit?
Good evening Naked Science,
I would like to use this video as a reference if you do not object.
John Oswald
I object
Not a picture of mine. Just a simple generated video, not impressed.
I like this guy's voice its scrary😱
Ok cool
This is painful to watch.
It's animated, should have been mentioned.
I love mines
Until you have to work in one
What is the game name?
comment if you watch anime and what anime you've watched. (if you've watched any) srry that was random lol
0:51 did I just hear him say "the rock face is at least [60 degrees] hot enough to burn the skin from our finders" hahaha wtf!? seriously 60 degrees?
60 degrees Celsius****
wish he wouldve specified but i guess he kinda did with his accent lol
derek wats
Nothing to do with his accent.
Degrees Celsius are accepted and understood nearly all over the world, bar some backward thinking people in some unnamed country.
Fahrenheit scale of measuring Temperatures is a failure? Is it of European Origin? YES Celsius scale sucks because temps below ZERO are conveniently freezing because IDIOTS cannot remember that 32 degrees F is the freezing temperature of water. Using the Fahrenheit scale is perfectly OK due to your frame of reference and what you are used to calling HOT or COLD !!!
DUH !
Why do they always put that goofy ring on explosions in space now? In reality if there was anything nonspherical about a supernova it would likely be jets from the poles.
Science has discovered that elements higher than Iron cannot be created in a "Supernova".
Look into Z Pinch.
@@canadiankewldude shut up my guy
Do you have something to dispute this scientifically documented fact?
@@canadiankewldude I'm not trying to debunk your statement
Sorry misunderstood.

thank you for posting this , it was very interesting .

@@ronniep777 No it was very interesting.
最初実写かと思いました、芸が細かいですね
The incredible bulk...
So, when you scale up the moon it fits with the earth, and based on that you believe that all gold comes from the moon? Someones been smoking some bathsalts I think.
Nah, just some good kush.
@ 2:45 : Every gram of gold, even the gold in your wedding ring.... ALL of it came from a supernova. Every single atom. Without the catastrophic death of a star, there would be no gold. The atoms of gold that you, for a time, own, came from a supernova (or, also from the merging of two neutron stars, which is just as cataclysmic).
Science has discovered that elements higher than Iron cannot be created in a "Supernova".
Look into Z Pinch.
I do question whether millions let alone billions of years are required for these natural processes to take place. Someone probably has an over-active imagination. Such huge numbers seem way out of scale.
Mike Day yea fact is we don't know shit lol
I thought the Russians had the deepest mine? Didn't they also drill a hole to 40,000 feet and it closes because the rock keeps collapsing?
Do you want balrogs ? Because this is how you get balrogs
Currently, in 2018, Anglo Gold Mponeng is the deepest.. more than 5kms
South Deep mine At Westonaria 2.995 M down. Single shaft
And also KGF
Interesting
If they dig any deeper they hit bedrock.
DEVIL WORMS! then you just end it, wtf bro
This honestly has to be one of the most ignorant comment sections I've ever seen on youtube. The lack of scientific comprehension is aneurysm inducing.

The only facts you can gather from this video is that the mine is 3.9 km deep , gold is beautiful and valuable.
Everything else was pure bs
