Remains

This is a small copper mine and visited 10/4/02. The front of the tip contains a lot of copper and iron pyrite mineralisation but the hillside behind is covered in heavy undergrowth. This contains especially vicious spiky plants so we were unable to investigate what was there - take a machete next time!
