👍🏻 beauty mate

Was the deepest Shaft in the southern hemisphere in it's time

It's incredible

My great grandfather worked here after he came back from WW1, used to grade and weigh the coal coming out of the mine. My Grandad, wrote a book about this mine and the settlement around Abernethy during those days. It’s called - “they called it Siberia” by Neville Robinson. Cheers for the interesting vid.

great video thanks for sharing. subscribed

Thanks for this video. I was there about 12-18 months ago photographing the ruins, tunnels, and old trestle bridge and it looks like all the rain we've had in the last 12 months or so haven't done the track any favours. There were quite a few snakes around too.

i live around that area and have watched your videos for a long time now wish i had the chance to catch up for a chat on the area

Not that anyone would want a residence a this location. However Imagine the house you could turn that building into. Like the show in England where people make houses of old water towers and generator buidings etc.

Never knew you were a Newcastle boy, Warren.

What a rush. You know of the best places to revisit !

No vortex videos yet ?

You're not worried about snakes in those high weeds? You weren't wearing snake protection.

Thank you for the upload Warren, only read today that you will be in Perth on Saturday, so disappointed I can’t make it to see you. Maybe next trip, cheers mate 🍻 Keep up the great work 👍

Bloody fantastic! Thanks Warren!

Always fascinates me that there doesnt appear to be a thick layer of soot still on a tunnel roof.....maybe there was enough steam to rinse it off each time?????? the mind boggles

Excellent and very interesting video! Thank you very much Warren! Be good if they do make that into a rail trail, those rail trails are usually very easy going thanks to the steady gradient and great for people who struggle a bit for whatever reason. Anyway be great to make use of it!

Well if you didn't bring this video out I would of never known about this place what a great part of our history thank you for sharing

G'day Warren. Great commentary! 3-4 years ago that area was a dust-bowl; not now. I've spent hundreds of hours exploring and studying the pit sites around Abernethy. There was a rudimentary old town-ship of sorts at that site, so remote they called it 'Siberia'. To the archio-eye, the dwelling lots are still visible; that particular area is now gazetted as National Park. Where the chimney is, I believe is council controlled, and probably quite okay to detect. Next time you are in the area I'd be glad show you to some of what I've discovered; it's a huge area all up. All the best, David.

Wouldn't you think a purchase to turn the old building into a home would be better than to just let it deteriate into a pile of rubble.

Hi Warren: So, I'm guessing the blackberries won out, in the endeavor to reach the old trestle. But even without that, it was a great sortie showing some fantastic old time craftsmanship of the building and tunnel. The old photo showing the plant in its' operating time was amazing. I always truly enjoy your history walkabouts, and encourage to do more as your time permits. Thank you!

That was very interesting ' thank you for sharing with us.

I lived in Charlestown from 1961 to 69 my playground was the Burwood Colliery and Dudley and Redhead beach's then the family moved to Townsville, they were fun days for a 12 year old

One of the big copper smelters I worked at here in Arizona we actually had to clean our smoke stacks every so often. You'd be amazed at the rare elements that were attached to the inside. Great explore. You brought back some memories. Thanks.😊

Unreal.

Cheers from the gold feilds of USA. Nice work...im a fan of my axiom done pretty well with it hit some nice slugs with it.

You should have said HOW to do a Factory Reset: Press POWER button for 5 seconds, wait for double-beep.

Bill Southern favorite place

Miss the prospecting days nice find

A couple of bush rangers here..

Short but sweet.

Settings Phil or Warren? Great video! 👍

Nice bit.. Love that crunchy gravel 🙂

Very nice nugget.

Good work to you both.

Ripper gear unreal.😂.

Ok. Does using the ground balance window have an advantage over using say slow tracking in varying ground. And does it affect sensitivity? Here in vic we have old timer's heaps that can be pipe clay right next to red clay with iron stone and or pizolite.

👍👍👍👍👍👍

Nice pace of gold

Hi Warren. Was the threshold at factory preset in this video?

Enjoyed your video and good finds my friend.

Well done Warren. I miss Colleens input. Maybe on the next one. Research pays off. Cheers.
