A rapid initial exploratory descent followed by bolting for a safer rig is a typical aspect of prospecting and shaft-bashing on the plateau. This shaft, given number <a href="../../200.htm">1623/200</a> remained unexplored below the surface shaft until 1998, when it was finally bottomed in three trips; marked with a metal tag; and very definitely fixed by GPS and surface survey. We won't be losing that one again, at least ! <br><font size=-1>Photo © Andy Waddington, 1993</font><br clear=all> <!-- Neg.
