Hi Corvy, just wondering where the 4 x 4.5m size come from, what do you think about a 3/3.5 x 3.5m using single boom with a split feed or just doin hand held bolting? I reckon the advance rate would be bout the same and costs would be cheaper. (anfo use is about 1.95-2.1kg/M3)
On a differnt note,, lots of talk re utilizing creek adit for possible portal site,,, don't think it will ever happen there,, it would be a nightmare for permitting and getting rid of mullock.
Stick the decline about same level as current shaft collar, away from creek, dump mullock out from of the decline, straight tram for ore to ROM pad. Drive decline in a couple hunderd metres get 2 headins going, one accessing stuff under hill to the north and the other declining around the MS shaft gaining access to vent and services(doubling as emergrncy egress,,,,, oppps thinking out loud again!)
