[QUOTE="Pat Hogen, post: 450520, member: 11720"] It is reported on the 'Australian Lapidary Group' Facebook page that a miner in Tasmania has had a portion of his mined supply of Pyrolusite stolen from his secured diggings: "Shane Stanfield 21 hrs Hi all! I wish there was a nice way to say this but... Some low life piece of shit has been breaking into mine sites on the west coast and stealing equipment etc... unfortunately they cut the chain on one of my adit doors and cut a hole in the other door to gain access. It also appears that they have raided my Pyrolusite tunnel where a good quantity of specimens have been removed. If anyone is offered Platt Prospect (Dundas) Pyrolusite specimens, please let me know asap so I can pass this information on to the police to aid in their investigations. It would take an intimate knowledge of the area to pull this off as these sites are way off the beaten track and not in plain site (sic)."
