As a geology student and prospector, I love how genuine this show is. It really captures the reality of small scale mining operations, and manages to be exciting and entertaining without playing things up too much. Keep up the good work guys!
agreed . I love watching these episodes about how they go along with mining ....dangerous & exciting .
So true!
Mount Antero, white mountain, Jones peak and Mt. Shavano was my geology thesis area for my M.S. degree at Oklahoma State.
Brought back lots of memories of three months hard work. A side benefit at the end I was in great physical shape.
Great show!! The aquamarine activity in 1968 was minor compared to what I’m seeing now.
hi please can i ask u ?
Agreed
I also love Jason and Ian's energy.
Thank you very much!. 😁 It is a honor and privilege to be apart of a great team and owners of the claim are awesome..
Love to see you all do a TV show one day great music great intro to the videos binge watching this season for sure 👍

Wow! Y'all are dedicated. Great videos. Having hunted on
Mt. Antero before ('60's & '70's)... I suffered high altitude cerebral edema and had to descend to a safer altitude. If people haven't experienced high altitude issues before, they may not appreciate the amount of effort and energy required to function at that altitude level. My hat's off to y'all!!!
Rock on!!!
interesting......a lot of work goes into this,,,,,this is a good show,,its all real, no drama, no fakes ,,,real people working together,,,and making things work out,,,,
It’s so thrilling , even when you pull out a piece of fluoride- but that huge aqua at the end - oh baby! guessing I’ll be a rock hound to the bitter end❤
Neeeed more!
G'day.
Got hooked on Prospectors back in the day, bummed when it was cancelled.
So really excited to see one of the originals from that show still going strong.
Good luck with it all guys, hope you are able to keep your family tradition going strong for generations to come.
Glad to see videos return with a new season, nicely done. I used to live in Colorado and I’m familiar with the lightning and hail.
As a geologist and retired gold prospector, I can fully appreciate the hard work it takes to pull precious minerals from the Earth, but our work was never in such precarious locations or high altitudes. Congratulations on the exquisite finds up on Antero! Blue stones are my favorite and I wish I could come over to Buena Vista and shop! Such beauty to behold!
The stones are breathtaking. What a hard job but seems so rewarding!
Crystals *
Yes so hard job but interesting job n feel peaceful and tuch nature
This has become one of my favorite series on yt, amazing job Danny and team. The production quality is great, and everyone presents themselves so well on camera. Super fascinating!
Holy crap u guys are on here too

Small world

Amazing show. This is my favorite mining show. Far better then gold rush
Oh that blue in the opening scene... wow! 🙌🕊 Thoroughly addictive watch 😄
I could watch these people doing this all day, looking forward to future episodes!!
Very nice to see them using almost all of the material that they pull off of the mountain. Well done.
I cant wait to see more! Gosh I wanna go help you guys, it looks like so much fun!
I'm having so much fun watching these
God damn the quality of this show is National Geographic Level it’s crazy good!

Mount Antero Treasures Productions can’t wait to see more from you all, makes me wish I could work alongside you guys to find those beautiful gems 💎
I have to say way better than the other series straight forward no repeating it self over and over and over
Aquamarine mount antero very nice 👍
This is awesome, you can see when they find some pockets and everyone gets so excited its like a drug man! Chasing the good rocks lol!
Thanks for making this series and welcoming us into your Bonanza of pretty blue finds. I feel like I need an NA meeting after watching. "C'mon Dude, just 5 more minutes".

Oh my gosh what a life style...I love it. If I was 30 years younger that is. I am thoroughly enjoying watching your teams uncovering those blues and sharing in the joy of the find. Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm a fan.
Wise production it's way better than discovery's usual suspects.
Thanks for sharing this video with us.
These people love their job so much it's so good to see.
I'm so happy this is on YT now. I use to watch Prospectors on Weather channel. But I don't have cable anymore. I love these guys! Very hard work. Love the aquamarine!💙💎😊
Fantastic series.
Good gemstone,I like your videos.
Thank you all for putting out these informative and entertaining videos! I appreciate all the hard work that goes into the videos on top of your mining operations. This is what those overdone TV shows wish they could be.
I agree. I feel like I'm there with them!
I have been to the top of antero for the last 3 years, riding utv's,,,, and I have seen you working the mountain. I have the utmost respect for all of you...and I wish you the best of luck....and I hope you make billions !!!!!
I have no experience in rock mining, but it seems like some hardhats might be a good idea for these folks.
I'm digging the music. 😅 had to do it, great video y'all.
this is like casino! you bet your day work and you migth to hit the jackpot eventually
I can't tell you how happy I am to finally view this long awaited 3rd episode.... It appears that operations are goin well... Keep em comin Craig and so glad to see that Tracie has recuperated from her accident so well... She looks great! You guys are doin an awesome job and I'll be watching for future episodes... 👀 Greetings from Canada and I wish y'all good luck in your upcoming endeavors...
😉 ✌
Camping in that beautiful countryside and prospecting on that mountain is my perfect dream, beautiful
I love your show! So happy to find new episodes. I really hope you keep this going. I wish though you would explain more about some of the mineral terms so I could be on your level a bit but you really have made prospecting look like the ultimate adventure!
Aquamarines are one of my favorite gemstones. I always love watching ya'll dig up the pretty blue.
I'm being selfish but I think you guys should make 2+ hr videos since you're not on the history channel anymore. I followed you guys since then and I love watching the whole process even if there isn't anything shown as in gems! Just a thought on future reference (:
Parabéns pelo belo trabalho de vcs.
Love your show! My 3 small boys and I really enjoy watching you find Aquamarine. Deep inside every little boy and girl is the dream of finding treasure. Good job guys!
wow wow wow here we are the best Colorado mining
The work is daunting they deserve every cent they make!
The production quality on this series is just astounding. Keep it up!
The goats are a nice touch.
Best show ever! Lets do this!!!
As someone who actively prospects and digs myself, its such an awesome things to see the THRILL that Ian and Jason had! Ive felt the same excitement at my Amethyst dig, its super relateable. Watching those beauties roll out I felt like I was there with them! Keep it up Ian and Jason! Hope yall visit MT sometime soon!
love their enthusiasm
Looks amazing dudes ✌️wish I could join u lot up there
Awesome! I'm glad you guys are keeping on with the show. I was honestly bummed when I saw there were only the two pilot episodes a while back. If you keep making 'em we'll keep watching 'em. Keep up the good work.
Jeweler here, Love your show, it's quite nice to see some of what it takes to give us those beautiful gems.
im glad to see a new entry in this series. it's by far one of the best quality real docs you will see. Wish there was less times between episodes, I've been eagerly anticipating this one.
amazing production value from such a small team! i love this content and cant wait to see another episode!
Really enjoy your videos.

*Laughs from Nunavut*
Their knowledge of the various rocks and how to looks for signs really fascinates me
They are in the business...very easy to learn....they own the mine otherwise couldn't dig there.
To avoid the issues associated with newer excavators, buy the older ones, make sure the frame, and body are in excellent condition, replace all of the vital parts, and have the engine rebuilt and upgraded so that it produces more power. You end up with an excavator that is basically brand new, that digs like one of the newer models, but doesn't have the same issues that the newer ones do. They just run and run all day long.
This is my favorite show on UA-cam! Love how honest they are with the work that goes into mining by hand. I used to mine fire agate at a private spot every weekend just for fun. That was extreme heat in AZ so watching this is like polar opposite for weather 😂
Hey Tim I actually live in Arizona as well and would love to go gem hunting. I DO NOT want your secret spot lol but maybe some pointers or whereabouts to look around the Phoenix area? Thank you!
Y’all are doing such a great job with these shows. Very good production. Again. Keepum coming. Thanks
awesome! great production!
Thank you 🙏 so much for this video not only it’s educational but also amazing 😉 knowledgeable keep on mining and finding those beautiful 💎 gems
hola
Now we are talking blue💎
Thank You for sharing👍

It is really cool to see how these small mining operations work! I do a lot of faceting so it is really cool to see where my rough stones come from!
This series is amazing, I'll definitely be watching for the next episode! Just wanna thank you for sharing it with all of us, and to wish you all the best of luck!
Love your videos
Fantastic series, Stunning stones, I'm Daniel from the State of Espírito Santo in Brazil, there are many huge aquamarines specimens here, in a mountain called Pedra da Onça in Itarana city, in this mountain have been extracted over two tousand kilos, but the biggest one in the wolrd are discovered in the State of Minas Gerais in Brazil too.

Love this series! Keep it up!
As a viewer who is interested in crystals, gems, and mining, I love to see what you are doing here, showing the people how you find and collect these beautiful aquamarines but I would love to see more of the cleanup. This is the really exciting part :D. I would also love to see more of the gems and how you process them and how they are turned from rough stones into pieces of jewelry.
Keep going and dig on :D
Good Job Chad, you guys are killing it up there. Great to see good things happing to good people. Take care, Woody.
I love how excited everyone gets and getting to see the Aqua come thru with them
It truly makes me happy to get that nice email notification that another great video just got released from you all. Such great quality content! sometimes things happen, not too much drama and you just keep at it, I really like that you show the success alongside the minor setbacks that happen 10/10 stars
