Awesome Historic Carbide Lamp Graffiti! Abandoned Copper Mine

[@FlashInYourPan]

Nice, adventure guys, the cabin and dump site looked interesting, for sure enough to explore more.
The blue mineralization in the mine could be azurite which is a copper ore. I am no geologist but that is my guess malachite I believe is more green. But I know Washington did/does have mines that had azurite in them.
Thanks for another abandon mine adventure guys.

I love how old grafiti is usually cursive. Found some under the north bound ramps of the viaduct before it came down.

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

It is some of the best graffiti we have encountered . Thanks for the comments.

The blue veins on the walls reminds me of Turquoise.

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

It does have that look.

Turquoise is hydrated copper and aluminum phosphate. Usually it is found in copper mines. Finding some would be pretty cool 😎

There are abandoned coal mines near Renton. Don't go in any of them.

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

👍

[@kevincoad607]

I thought they were all filled in or boarded up.

Pretty sure I found this mine last December. Non pareil. Had icicles all down the front. I have some amazing pictures. Amazing to see the inside

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

We can neither confirm nor deny that name. But glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for watching.

I get too nervous trying to explore mine shafts for some reason. But ghost town sites are a lot of fun. Thanks for the video!!!

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

Understand that. Thanks for watching and the comments. We appreciate it.

[@Mark_The_Magnificent]

Very nice mine and artifacts for sure! But best graffiti ever!! Thanks

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

Thank you very much!

The blue colored stuff is copper in the raw.

[@ghosttownsandminesofwashington]

That was our initial thought. Thanks
