Parker Schnabel, a renowned figure in the gold mining industry, has made history by discovering the largest gold mine ever unearthed. Found at an impressive depth of 6,988 BC, this mine promises to revolutionize gold mining globally.
At their operation in Yukon, Schnabel’s team faces a monumental challenge: mining 90 acres in a single season. Although 30 acres remain unmined, they have already extracted about 52,000 ounces of gold from the 60 acres mined. This demonstrates the effort and skill of the team.
During this process, the team encountered a malfunction when the grizzly bar at the “Big Red” plant broke down, but it was quickly resolved after six hours of continuous repair. To increase efficiency and ensure stable machinery operation, they reduced the feeder speed and redistributed tasks to “Slucifer.”
The mining season concluded with a total of 8,118 ounces of gold, valued at approximately $14 million. To acknowledge the team’s hard work, Parker presented a team member with an ashtray made from actual gold.
Under Parker Schnabel’s leadership, the team has not only mined gold but also built team spirit and resilience. Each member takes home stories and memories that cannot be measured in gold, illustrated by commemorative coins stamped with their names. This is a testament to their tireless efforts and relentless desire for success in the gold mining industry.
