sorry kobus, but I cannot help you there

Doing a bit of a google search, I came up with this website. It might not help you kobus, but it had some fascinating information

The best way is to find out from locals that have been around for a while..

Kobus I found this... Possibly by checking each abandoned mine you could look for an adjoining quarry...  ;D Who knows, maybe you find something...  ::)

What's nice is that the sites are linked with satellite imagery and the GPS co-ordinates...  ;D
