The shaft digging over the last few weeks has gone well, however
as the dig got deeper it became apparent that the shaft was starting to angle
across, rather than being a straight drop. Whilst digging in the hanging wall,
a cavity was broken into. Upon contemplation it was concluded that the the
hanging wall had dropped into the shaft causing part of the blockage and the
cavity to form. It looks like the next action will be to timber into the cavity
and continue the dig from there saving the hassle of removing the hanging wall
that has come down. |
