[QUOTE="boobook, post: 384025, member: 1605"] Thanks Rodney, going to enjoy following your progress with that mine. Actually, plenty of things have gone up x10 since 1983 so the shaft cost is not so unreasonable. Bugger though when you have to wreck the gear to get through silcrete. Don't suppose you could have cracked it with a few small shots? Had a bit of experience with silcrete in SW. Qld. opal mining. Nitropril the only economical way to deal with it, but its a fair bit different when you have to collar a shaft Mike [/QUOTE]
