Built-in 1855, this home belonged to a man who became prominent in the 1950s when he staked a property in Ontario, which proved to host a massive uranium orebody. He used both intuition and geological interpretation in locating these claims and spotting the initial two drill holes which led to the discovery of this world-class deposit.
The Man earned a degree in mining engineering, After graduating in 1939, he worked at several mines before joining the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1942.
Later, in 1974, the home was extended, taking it from a small stone home to a large mansion-like home.
Today the home sits, an oddball in its neighbourhood with its future unknown, left behind is mining equipment, uranium, thousands of maps from Canada's mining industry and much more!

guys hold that record there's another
basement
I was wrong guys there's a whole other
part of this house we saw the whole main
level of the house we saw the whole base
whole upstairs of the house we saw half
of the basement but right behind me guys
I need a haircut yeah my hair's getting
along right behind you guys there's
another staircase to another basement
which I think we're gonna see some cool
stuff so without further ado let's turn
the camera around and let's see this
basement here we go guys right here it
was behind this door guys look at this
stairs second basement
I thought I was missing something here
now we're talking guys now we're talking
okay so heading over this way we will
start with Christmas decorations there's
a bit of Christmas decorations right
there guys check it out
and then so I understand that the man
who lived here had done something to do
with mining okay so there used to be
those uranium detecting what do they
call Giga readers here but somebody
stole them
stupid D blow that they are somebody
stole them but there's all kinds of maps
and I believe there are also a number of
rock samples somewhere in the house down
here in the basement so what happened
what sorry about that we'll have to see
guys this thing I don't know what that
is
anyway so here's a bunch of filing
cabinets and I am NOT going to go
through the filing cabinets because
there's nothing of any interest that I
can imagine or any reason for me to go
through all those files but let's go
this way and here we've got a number of
other filing boxes and here we go
saint-pierre uranium mines and we've got
more and more stuff what's this he had
something inside here that's now been
taken which is gone and I will look
inside here there and there's an empty
box there guys empty box
what's this
no clue guys anybody know what this
thing is I got no idea
this it's like an old ledger or
something yeah got some notes in there
sorry I'm sniffing a lot in here today
that's this Montreal Canada the standard
March 7th 1914 guys hmm that's an old
newspaper got some lamps back here some
tables charcoal there's a Christmas tree
right there check it out there's their
old old school Christmas tree Christmas
tree stand Garland and well that's that
guys there wasn't as much stuff down
here as I thought there was probably
because it's not here anymore it's been
taken big no no guys never opened the
fridge while you're exploring I just did
it anyways and it's clean thankfully the
reason why you never opened the fridge
guys when you're exploring is because
the fridges are stinky nothing else to
see down here guys I am not seeing
anything not really looking past the end
of my nose but I mean that's all right
okay guys we're gonna head back upstairs
