It's Mine!

If you’re ever around Creede, Colorado they have an underground mining museum there that is incredible. My stepdad used to work at the Creede mines in the 1960’s and 70’s and he used to use a lot of those terms in the OP illustration. Around Creede there are literally hundreds of old mine drifts and shafts. I was out hiking in the hills east of Creede above Wasson Ranch one day and found a shaft that you could drop a rock in and it took quite awhile before you’d hear it hit the water.

I have mild claustrophobia; looking at the chart in the OP gives me the dreads thinking of being stuck in those spaces.

Some young guy bought the Cerro Gordo mine in California and has done a bunch of Youtube videos about him exploring the giant silver mine.  Pretty interesting to watch but I don't think I'll be going down there with him.
