This is a link post That Ghost Town guy makes silver out of rock
Sometimes he's so earnest it's a bit freaky, despite his mild demeanour - but the whole thing of isolated living, working with your hands and brain together? - it's massively appealing.

This is a normal post Everytime I see a new one of his videos appear I'm amazed he's stilll alive
I had to unsubscribe after one particularly stupid journey alone into a mine. He's very likeable but that's the worse part. One day his videos will stop because he'll have gone missing squashed under a million tons of rock. One can only pray his end will be swift rather than starving to death slowly in the dark behind a rockfall in a collapsed tunnel.

This is a normal post the point of galena is that lead is worth a bit too. the silver is just a bonus
When I was geo student they took us down the Broken Hill mine (the worlds biggest lead zinc silver deposit), looking up black glittering stopes (like a vertical chamber) 20 stories high of galena. It turns shitty and dull after a few days in the air, but when freshly exposed looks amazing.
Seems quite a positive little metallurgist

This is a normal post He looks a lot skinnier, good to see he has his enthusiasm back since the fire
