[QUOTE="stoyve, post: 108703, member: 2982"] Gday mjb and dwt, The air behind the dirt pile was pretty stale, I waited for over an hour before going into that section so some fresher air would get in, it was still a bit stale but I've been in there since and its a lot better now. As far as ghost's go, I haven't run into any yet, but I must say that every time I go in there, I stop and read the inscription in the rock. Robert Dodds must of had at least one good mate down there who took the time and effort to leave such a moving memorial. Without that inscription I wouldn't of known the mine I'd been exploring for the last few year's. As far as photos go, I took dean65 in there a few months ago but the photos didn't come out as good as was hoped. I will go in there with him again sometime in the new year and see if he can take a good shot of the massive quarts vein in the main tunnel. Its about 1 foot wide for about 30 foot. Its amazing. Cheers Steve [/QUOTE]
