[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 656795, member: 3960"] I'm looking at a string of mines in close proximity to each other. [ATTACH type="full"]5891[/ATTACH] I went out for another brief look today. [ATTACH type="full"]5892[/ATTACH] I took the 30m tape measure with a short piece of chain attached to the end. I dropped the chain down three of these mines and they were all between 10m and 11m. They appeared to have dug down through the quartz reef that can be seen running through from side to side on each shaft. If there was gold in this reef why is it still there? Is there something at the 10m depth that they were taking out? The only mine that I have any history on is the Golden Leaf mine that can be found on Trove and it's listed in Mindex; [ATTACH type="full"]5893[/ATTACH] The most obvious difference is that the Golden Leaf mine has no bund around it so it looks like all that came out of the mine went away for treatment.
