This is the story of Anyox and Phoenix, two of the largest Copper mines in the world. They were abandoned 100 years ago. Today they lay in ruins totally deserted except for their graveyards. We explore the miles of underground workings that remain to this day. This film was produced with the help of Telus Storyhive that provided a $ 60,000 grant. The film has been shown in film festivals around the world.
Weve explored hundreds of abandoned mines in Canada the United States and Mexico, going places nobody else would dare to go! A New video is produced every Friday, check us out here:

We do this for two main reasons:
1) Documenting the mines for future generations.
2) Collecting artifacts for our museum.
Mines are being filled in, demolished, and/or collapsing at an alarming rate, so it is crucial to document them and save these artifacts while it is still possible.
Join us for our weekly adventures as we go deep underground into historic abandoned hard rock Gold, Silver and Copper mines. We relive the Prospecting, Gold Rush days, going back in history with every expedition. Visiting abandoned and forgotten places, climbing down mine shafts into dangerous mines, finding treasures, seeing antique heavy equipment such as ore carts, crushers, milling machines, ball mills, explosives and other mining equipment.
This isnt Minecraft but the real deal!
