Crystal Cave Discovered Inside A Marble Mine

We were exploring deep inside this massive mine when we found the entrance to a crystal filled cave that keeps going on forever!

I am an81 yr. Old woman who has always had a fascination with caves and mines ever had the chance to explore either one but. Now that I’m way too old for such stuff these great videos are second best, keep up the good work Gods blessings andmay you always be safe

I am 77 years old and will "never" have the chance to do a cave exploration like this! Thank you so much for taking us on this adventure with you. I know it's not like being there but it's the next best thing. Otherwise "none" of us would ever see this in our lifetime.

4:40 mark and onward. Those are "hoppered" calcite crystals - a VERY rare crystal form for calcite. Some of the crystals are just truncated flat. Some come up to the classic 3 sided pyramids. But, some show the hollow hopper effect. That is an exceptionally different formation - never seen anything quite like it.
edit - what an awesome place!!! I hope nobody goes in there and messes it up. Take nothing but a picture...

6:23 THAT'S a HUGE find guys!!! Those are extremely rare crystals. They only form in specific conditions, like shallow, still pools of water with very high concentrations of calcium carbonate. I've only ever seen them in Gouffre de Proumeyssac, which is France. Unreal, that's a massive find, kudos.
Going by how they form, any sample you take in there, you're bound to find them with a microscope too. Shame there's no pools of water, it is said that they can be also found in suspension.

Amazing video! However, I wish you would've went just a little further. It sounded like when you jumped in, the waves caused the ripples to play a hollow part of the cave like a drum. Either that or the falling water is falling in another hollowed out area and creating cave music. It would've been so cool to see the source! You are probably one of very few people alive to hear that.

[marshallsweatherhiking]

Listening again, the sound is almost like what you'd get from blowing over the top of an empty bottle. So maybe there was a low gap with just a few inches between the water and the ceiling, and inside the gap is a closed-off hollow the air must blow directly under. If there's a lot of crystals inside the hollow it might amplify the sound. Maybe a formation like an upside-down glass with the rim just a few inches above the water, and crystals lining the inside that amplify the sound somehow. Or maybe it was a water monster boss guarding the treasure cache.

So glad I got to come along with you guys! Even though I didn't go down into the cave with y'all! That mine was insane! Had caves breaking through all over. You were down in the cave so long we got a bit worried. - Davis

As a diehard rockhound, I would have gone insane with all those stalagmites, stalactites, and crystals. What a rush. Please don’t publish the name/location of this cave. Unscrupulous People will strip it bare. Beautiful tour, thanks for sharing. I’m so envious.

WE NEED A PART 2, 3, 4 and many more !😀😀

I heard the noise about a minute before you said something. It sounded like people in the distance at first. I thought maybe you somehow circled around to your group. My guess is, it's water falling on one of those formations that you can beat on like a drum. It was definitely water on something. I wouldn't have been able to resist finding out, but I'm sure it was creepy as all get out. Hope you go back to explore the other holes.

[bobqat]

Have you guys considered getting a geologist to review/comment on some of your videos, or even tag along on an exploration? It would be neat to have a little background on formation and crystals you find.

Thanks, and do be careful!

[bartbullock]

I can't be the only one who realizes just how epic this is!!! World class 9th level, you boys win!!!!

[oldcrow]

Seems like a different plane. Our planet is amazing.Thanks for showing and sharing.

[jeoboden]

Any idea what you heard? How often do you run into danger at the back of a tunnel? Rushing wind indicate close to an entrance?

[GobRogan]

Nice guys. 22 and half minutes of pure relaxing time for me tonight. (My kids and wife leave the room in anxiety when I watch your videos) 👊🏻

[matthewpicklesimer]

Wow how gorgeous and I'm so glad you respected the environment and as not to damage the forms of crystals..looks like gypsum triangle crystals

[cortrichards]

Those are some of the coolest mineral formations I have seen in a cave/mine! Some of those were huge crystals and the triangular ones were very bizarre. Just seeing those crystals all sparkle at the same time was really neat. Beautiful! Hope you find more and more weird minerals, crystals and formations in the many caves and mine that you guys explore! Thanks for sharing with us all!

[goochbootch]

Totally sounded like a few people talking over each other in the distance. Trippy sketch! Thanks for that awesome adventure as usual

[leeharris]

Can we have a part 2 please. I think we all want to see what was beyond where you stopped. To be totally honest, I'm.gutted you didn't go see.

[julesarindam]

Nice to see you guys enjoying yourselves, showing us and not damaging what you found. Respect.
