Goldtarget
(AKA OldGT)
Ok so they aren't great photos and I've searched for endless hours with no reference to this site, but there's quite a large shaft cut into the hillside where its been deep lead mined. Maybe its my research that's the problem. There's a massive amount of what i would call sub water level workings (due to the bluish Getty materialfrom an ironstone and shale quartz site)arranged neatly in heaps around the site and obviously someone with a detector has also been here (is there any undetected sites left?) Anyway i wonder about highbanking the site. I guess its a question of heritage firstly, and secondly just how efficiently do you think that they worked it? Ordinarily I'd research to get some sort of idea of time spent, depth and volume, etc, but so far have come up with nothing other than what i can gather from the site. i haven't test panned which is prob the best way to go, but its a wider question than that, i really wanted to hear what the line of thinking of was on battery sites and whether they are worth working, or left alone do to low yields and or historic value. Thanks in advance.
