We stayed indoors and had a few coffees and let it pass. I then got to moving the loads in ! Its been a very few interesting days already ! We are all suffering with the sore feet thing, we’ve just all been making the miles big time ! Just put the Stream Engine on line tonight ! My first post from Rock City
Classic Videos – Mining and Moving
This week’s collection of videos takes us back a few years and starts with one of our first serious video productions, Del’s Shaker Plant. Mix in more mining, driving and time lapse videos and you’re mining and moving on Holloway Bar!
We made a short video explaining how a vibrating shaker plant works in the gold placer mining process. If you’re interested in the search for gold you’ll be able to learn about one method of mining in this video.
We’re mining on Holloway Bar on McDame Creek in the Cassiar Mountains in northern BC, near where BC’s largest gold nugget at 73 ounces was found.
These short videos originated from the Holloway Bar Streaming Camera that’s watching the mining in the 2010 season. I captured two segments approximately 30 or 40 minutes long and this is the result. The first part – mining with the cat – was the last day the cat was used exclusively for this dig. The loader – used, but new to this project – arrived the next day and was quickly put to work after a pre-job service. The second video segment with the loader was taken on the first day the loader was put to work on Holloway Bar.
A short time lapse of a drive through the Ningunsaw pass, a remote section of Highway 37 in Northern BC.
This started off as just a couple of random timelapses that I work on from time to time, but once it was organized a little and music added, it seemed to come to life. The images for these came from several of the hollowaybar.com webcams – sometimes from a compilation of images uploaded to the website (I try to archive these to the tune of about 10,000 images a week – probably about 3 or 4 million images now taking up almost 500 gigabytes of storage at the moment). These are fun to make – and I hope you enjoy watching this collection of timelapses…
