The only way to make iron without access to a mine or bogs is to go to a river in an iron rich area, and pan out all the dirt until you have black sand. You melt that down with a bit of coal coke and limestone flux to make raw iron. You then carbodize it by slicing the iron thinly and burning it with graphite (or coal coke) and baking soda (or some other usable salt) in a semi-anaerobic environment, and hammer the carbodized iron back. together into a single billet to make steel.
How to get iron: 1. Punch a tree 2. Make a pick axe 3. Mine some stone 4. Make a stronger pickaxe 5. Find coal and mine it 6. Find iron ore and mine it 7. Craft a furnace and smelt the iron.
Cameron Speer I honestly think he should have with the bog iron rather than the mine. That way he wasn't using an premade mine or spending the time to dig his own.
Shut up leave him alone he did all that work to make tools in a collection of vids spending money for those experiences so let him be and stop hating cause no one likes a HATER
+Alex92kronus that was just in that spot because there was a large layer of iron ore then because of a fracture it got put on a 78 degree angle and it actualy was at the top and they mined along the layer down till it just wasant worth it anymore, and iron is pretty common you can find it just about anywhere
Imagine turning a rock from the sky into the strongest tool that ever existed, while all of your friends are still using rocks and soft metals. That sounds like the most ultimate flex.
If your making cookies from scratch you can get flour from someone you don't have to make it yourself, so stop complaining he didn't mine his own stuff, that would have taken years also
That's great and all if you want to start a corporation that mass produces iron, but how do you mine iron if you don't have access to any metal. I want to know how you go from sticks and stones to metal!!! Do you chisel and smelt with wood, clay, and stone? How is it done? If all metal on Earth was re-deposited back into the ground or if you weren't even on Earth hypothetically speaking, how would you start over? That's what I want to know. Not these fancy metal machines helping you get more metal. I want zero metal to get metal. How do you do that??? Do you Bust out brittle ores with a wooden sledge? Do you steal salts from a volcano and blow up a vein? How do you get from step 1 of having no metal to step 2 of having metal??
bandrukesucks, there are many places on UA-cam to find what you're looking for, but you have to Frankenstein the info into a useful whole. Start with the channel Primative Technology. He starts with rocks, grass, sticks, and mud and works his way up from there. He's currently starting the smelting process. He makes fire tools, cordage, cutting edges, shelters, pottery, gardens, and charcoal from literal scratch. He doesn't hunt or make weapons, but he gives you the beginning tools of survival. Also, this channel skipped the copper and bronze ages, which used metals that were easier to identify and refine from ore. There's a huge period of discovery that you can skip if you know what to look for, which they didn't show here.
They literally talked about it in the video. Bog Iron. You could walk through a virgin bog back in the day and get plenty of iron to get started. You could then do like the Primitive Technology channels and make charcoal and at least do some rough forging with giant wooden mallets. Would be back breaking, time consuming work.
Do you have any people in Philippines 🇵🇭 who may engage in iron mining? Bcuz we have area in our palace which have iron deposits accordingly, it can last for even 30-50years of mining deposit of iron will not diminished. Or should mining company we could discuss with for the possible partnership. Hoping for a kind and positive response. Thank you!.
Iron is from the surface the dource came from iron bacteria (orange mud slime like) for surface.... is u mine them at underground its considered metal cuz its better iro n
That was dumb--didn't even show a close up of what it looked like, and um, aren't you missing a big step--from 7" rock to workable ore, I don't know what, but I know there's much more before it can become workable metal.
I keep imagining how terrifying it'd be to be trapped in a mine.
gaa N What?
or outer space
Just dig up and place blocks below you
Ironic.
How to get iron: go down a pre-dug mine and get handed a chunk of iron ore. How did you go from knapping stone tools to extracting iron?
Knaten _ maybe they couldn't dig?
It might have been one of those situations where he wasn't allowed to do something
The answer is you don't. Not in one generation
I love this dude's stuff. This is my second binge on his content..But I'll never get over that accent. "Dounchaknoow"

Eric Codecire No, Steve.
great videos - keep them coming
I've been to that mine!! So cool!
Hey I've been to the Soudan mine!
+NelsonDiningHall its awesome there
Hope you get more views/subs! These videos are very inspiring!
To this day the freighters ply the great lakes carrying this ore from MN to the Ford Rouge foundry to manufacture automobile, et. al.
you didnt dig your own mine...
Well, he can go to Cody's :)
Lim Xuan Ting would you like to spend years digging underground or go to an already built min

Can’t iron be mined from caves? You don’t have to dig a cave.
Shut up leave him alone he did all that work to make tools in a collection of vids spending money for those experiences so let him be and stop hating cause no one likes a HATER
It's amazing, amazing
I love Iron
hold up if you wanted to start in the metal age you should have started with copper!
Stacy plays was in that mine
How do they even find iron? I mean it's half a mile under the surface
+Alex92kronus that was just in that spot because there was a large layer of iron ore then because of a fracture it got put on a 78 degree angle and it actualy was at the top and they mined along the layer down till it just wasant worth it anymore, and iron is pretty common you can find it just about anywhere
These days they use magnetic imagery from satellites to locate iron deposits
So... Where's part 4? Or is part 5 actually part 4?

I thought the ultimate flex was bringing a gun to the sword fights, making the hours spent getting into armor useless

All I can think about is minecraft.I also subbed!
same lol
+Fiat500Lover WE ARE MINERBUDDIES, MINERBUDDIES
GtaV reference to trevor,*Scooterbuddies Video*
In case you didn't get the joke :P
Please venture into a mineshaft and get stuck, minerbuddies
Noice thank you kind stranger!
I wouldn't call meteorites pure iron. Elementary iron; yes. Pure? More often than not, no, it has a lot of contaminants.

bandrukesucks lookup bloomery furnace
You can mine iron ore with a stone pickaxe
Eric Minecire lmao false minecraft knowledge right here

Isn't this the mine Steven Fry went to in "Stephen Fry in America"?

I have been there for a field trip
so this series is basically a real life Minecraft tutorial
Where's episode 5?
I find this quite scary going real deep into the earth, this for me takes a lot of courage. :/
Ohk city boi
What city in Minnesota? I'm in Rochester myself
X meteor cannot be forged
I went there in irl but I went to the labtory
mine craft
Bro i love how he has like no accent EXCEPT for when he says minnesota😂😂
Miner looks like Steve Jobs
Nailed it!
Geddit? nail is made by iron
he didn't make his own helmet :(
What is episode 4/6 5/6 6/6
I'm surprised that they gave you a yellow hat instead of white or grey
Are there other sizes of soda available in this state, or only Mini?
Iron is from the surface the dource came from iron bacteria (orange mud slime like) for surface.... is u mine them at underground its considered metal cuz its better iro n
Give him a break, guys. So what he didn't dig his own mine. It would take him years to do that by himself
should have started off with an easier metal to smelt
Dude skipped the bronze age =p
and they said Minecraft wouldn't help

Minecraft
IN REAL LIFE! 😂
You didn't showed use how to make the word '' everything " lol
Man You skipped copper and bronze age !!!!!
This is a very big and confusing TOOLCEPTION
Now can we mine some diamonds ;)
Minecraft in real life.
