This was a shallow shaft 330m deep until an sub-incline shaft was dug starting at 250m level intending to reach 1200m level this was not completed by the time i left.
A hydraulic winch was used on the incline manufactured in the uk by Needhams & brown for man riding,
a Cable belt conveyor for the ore. i spent many happy hours while this was being built (sad i know)
