Alright...
...number one, this mine is very, very old. Number two, do you think that whoever took the time and effort to punch this line into the side of this hill would've left anything as crazy as a huge gold or rare metal vein sitting there right in front of their face? Come on man, get with the program.
What is encouraging, however, is that there appears to be potassium feldspar and even some trace pyrite mineral deposits (goldish sheen). The reddish veins you see everywhere is extrememly likely to be k-feldspar. Again, you can also see what appear to be pyrite flakes (commonly called fools gold) scattered throughout.
Niobium is known to form in the same types of geologic environments as these two minerals.
Looking good.
