John Cooper and Mike Kousiounis. Warm, 12°C and sunny, with little wind. John at the bottom with the breaker to start, with Kushy hauling. After the third breaker session John came up and Mike went to the bottom to clear. Then he continued with the breaker. Total loads for the day was 29. Finally holes drilled and destroyed. Should be more spoil ready for clearing next session. The bottom rung on the ladder is now nearly 2m off the floor making getting on and off quite interesting! 4½ hours. John.
Mike Kushy and Sam Hill. Arrived at 15.30. With SH clearing and MK winching 25 full buckets were cleared. The inert material hasn't reacted well to the last charge. Will try the breaker on it next. 2 hours. MK.

Kushy, John Cooper and Trevor Hughes. A total of 30 skip loads hauled up the shaft, a lot of mud but also breaker derived rock from the eastern wall. A proper, albeit mud filled, pot is starting to appear. Trevor.
