[QUOTE="G0lddigg@, post: 36230, member: 357"] Took my dog for a walk today over to Black hill and had an explore around, followed some quartz veins and some iron indicators round the place and thought i'd share, its such great visit you can really get a sense of what they were doing back in 1860, I found an adit to the independent mining co they did alright too by my maths 2.7 ounces per tonne of ore, might be convinced to go in there with some backup. PROD_COMM = Gold; PROD = 8839.000; :P PROD_UNITS = oz; ORE = 24441.000; ORE_UNITS = t; DEP_TY_SP = Vein hosted - HOST_LITH = Sandstone;Shale; didn't want to clog up the forum with masses of photo's so its in a gallery here Hope you like it.
