Notes

Easy slate mine, leads to ladder dropping down 20m, a short passage leads to another 20m drop with no ladders so is rigged by SRT. This pitch is awesome as it's a free-hang down into an open stope.

From there a bit of scrambing leads us to some lift cages which descend further down, into now flooded levels deep below.
