[QUOTE="Jaros, post: 61298, member: 1122"] Hi there, when i lived in Melbourne and was doing my Tech in Training course with the PMG. a fellow tech. mate of mine and his brother all went to Walhalla in Gippsland and did a bit of fossicking and even tried skin diving in the creeks (Brrrrrr) . One day went walking into the hills miles out of town and noticed a mine opening or adit in the side of the hill. We had torches and ventured inside about 50 mtrs and started getting a bit claustrophobic. My mates brother showed us a bex bottle with some chemicals in it and said he was going to ignite it. It had a long wick but we ran like buggery out of that shaft and stood about 20 ft outside of the opening and the blast knocked us of our feet. As we shot out of the area we noticed some business cards laying randomly about belonging to some American company who had a lease the area . Being in our late teens we got outa there very quickly. To this day i don't know what was in that bex bottle? [/QUOTE]
