[QUOTE="stoyve, post: 111106, member: 2982"] Gday hty, Every time I go in there, I go into the upper level. It has 3 entry levels that are quite easy to go in and another one which is a bit dodgy. They all go into the same tunnel which I have fully explored. It runs for several hundred metres till it hits a dead end. About 15 metres before you reach the end there is a shaft which goes up about 10 to 15 metres. It has been back filled from above and is very unstable . I believe this lead to another level above and might be a stope. There was at least 7 entry points to this mine but only this one is accessible. Gday Tone, It was sure worth it in this mine, one of the quartz veins is about 1 and half feet wide and around 30 to 40 foot long, absolutely amazing. :o Cheers Steve. [/QUOTE]
