Abandoned Mine Exploration: Bloodstone Mine

This abandoned mine exploration takes us on a Jeep ride through the desert before hiking up a mule trail high up the mountain to the Bloodstone Mine. This remote lead mine has some interesting geology, and some very interesting artifacts that we've never seen in a mine before. Because of it's location much of the work was done by hand and the miners had to improvise by making things that they needed. The ore vein is very beautiful with vivid colors throughout the mine.
