Paid a visit to Spot How Gill copper mine on Sunday, Unfortunately No trip photos to show due to a raging whitewater torrent that carried me down stream a little way and ruined 2 cameras :curse: .
Was trying to find some information ie opened and closed dates, if it was ever reworked, mining company/ies methods etc etc.......
Interesting to find that along with seams of copper and quartz, there is a large inclusion of gold (most likely pyrites).
Has anyone onboard ever paid a visit?

Disclaimer: Mine exploring can be quite dangerous, but then again it can be alright, it all depends on the weather. Please read the proper disclaimer.
