When I was a kid we used to live in a small town (I don't recall the name) between Winslow and Holbrook and my oldest brother used to tell us tales about his visits to the Superstition Mountains, he never pushed his luck by going treasure hunting but he did know a few of the locals there and they always gave him a few tall tales to tell his younger siblings. I've never seen the Superstition Mountains with my own two eyes but I've always thought that they were in their own right breathtakingly beautiful. If I ever get to visit Arizona again I will bring my camera to take pictures of the beautiful scenery, and I'll be sure to leave the hiking and treasure hunting to the more seasoned professionals. I love your videos, my friend, keep up the good work.
Nice to see you mr.Worst. I worked at the Wasp back in 1992 when Rex and my uncle Robert set up Rexs trommel on your mine. I enjoyed your history of the area. Glad to see you are doing great. My uncle turned 94 last Oct. Doing fine in Kingman. God bless you...
As many times I have been by there always wondered about that mine was kind of close to town still in operation at least last times I used to drive by there in early 2000's thanks for the video.
I think they drifted all the way under the wasp went way up down around left right inside now inside out ..... then turned everything upside down and shook it like a rug got a hold of all the gold......... how does that nice old man on your interview ... know what the hell they were doing a thousand feet under the ground in the dark for years and years and years
We get a report monthly on how our show is doing. In May we had 3,790 likes. The only thing that really helps us is subscribers. We are near 9,000 which we are disappointed that there are not many more.
@@larryhedrick254 this would suck going back into the video somehow but a lot of people need to be reminded to like And subscribe... and then maybe a special hey we really need you guys to start sharing our videos ( like-minded people )we really need the help.... I'd like the videos they are well made , informative, suspenseful, well liked all the narrator's and historians .... I'm thinking there's biased at UA-cam, UA-cam(( they may not be holding your back but I sure as hell don't think they're promoting you)) old white men..... But I do know they're promoting other videos and their focus on these other videos might be why yours are suffering...... you guys keep plugging away I'll keep watching and hopefully one day this will take off like a rocket launcher Thank you
This is where Jacob got his gold from how can a old prospector look for 30 years and never look in goldfield area haha he found old diggings from Spanish and dug his ore out of it .
Since the apecs of the ore seam in on the WASP mining claim, Mr Clay has the right to file for the minerals taken at the 1100 foot level. 1872 mining Law
Gold runs through those channels, it's not gold ore all straight through that dirt. I'm in gold country in CA, & everybody knows that gold vein that's been dug to the end, is tapped out & gone. You might find a pocket here & there. Goodluck
Except, in the case of the WASP, they stopped not because the ore ran out, They only stopped because they had dug into another persons claim and there was ore nearly the same assayed value at the bottom 1,000 feet as was at the top end and the assays were still available. The top end of the WASP had produced a significant amount of gold on its own but the ore vein required going underground at an 87 degree angle downward a 1000 feet to reach the bottom.
@@larryhedrick254 It's probably all nothing but dirt in between, that's why you mine & make tunnels, instead of strip mining & wasting all that time moving trash. Shrugs

Clay it seems you were ripped off..I wish you well in Retirement. If only I had the $$ to buy/drill!!
Lots of myth and very little proof of real gold...Ain,'t none.

Politically correct - please, how tiresome! Enjoyed the old gentleman.
If it's private property, then who gives a rat's rear anymore? No one can go up there anymore anyhow.
