Templeton 22/2/12

Mark Denning & Estelle Sandford went over to Templeton to collect some steel for White Pit and have a look at their dig and dig with them. Stu Gardiner came over and took some metalwork, but didn’t go underground as he didn’t have kit.
They have some serious engineering there, including a dumper truck and cctv and lots of winches and pumps! They also had a breakthrough on Monday into a new pitch which is 35ft long and 8-10ft wide and still going. Mark went down to look at that and I went down to their main dig which had just finished being pumped out. Dug about 10 or so buckets and then came up all the fixed ladders to the surface. Very muddy at the bottom.
