The Holloway Bar Gold Miners - Part 2

[eugyero]

Any gold in Minnesota? We have a ton of iron, and other indicators, just no gold yet?

What exactly is the steam engine? I was interested in the manufacturer, make and model.  Interesting stuff there.

@MrOldclunker

Are you referring to the "stream engine"? There is no steam engine on site...

The stream engine is the heart of the Holloway Bar power system - and is a micro-hydro water turbine from Energy Systems & Designs (they should show up on a google search).

You can find a bit more information about the camp infrastructure in Part 4 of "A Gold Miner's Dream - The Holloway Bar Story" video also online here...

I hope this helps.

Fantastic vids ...... entertaining and interesting to watch ..... much more entertaining than a certain discovery show. :o)

This is like the week before the season begins. I'm all raring to go and the gate is locked.

Awesome, we all look forward to seeing the hole, the conglomerates, and the glittering pans a plenty.

@Redpaw2011 Hopefully you found part 3 of the video - with more mining and some good camera shots...

[hollowaybaral]

Thanks for the nice comments! Hang in there, guys... Part 3 is in the works and should be up in about a week or so...

Same here.

I check daily for more videos, I need to see mining.

[Redpaw2011]

One of the best mining videos in ages, I felt like I was part of the crew watching the steps you took and the setup. Please make more videos, they are great.

5 star review.
