[QUOTE="xobazzip, post: 22906, member: 845"] The Mines Department is very strong on having old shafts filled in or fenced off if they are on private property so many land owners do not publicise the presence of old shafts due to the liability factor of people possibly hurting themselves and then suing the land owner for not filling them in. You would probably need to sign a waiver of some description to satisfy a landowner and cover him for potential public liability (and I am not sure legally if this really would suffice in a court of law. regards [/QUOTE]
