Publisher's blurb: Cold bellows up from the yawning abyss that this mine was built on. Beyond the pillared passage the broken bridge crosses the deep pit, wooden frameworks have fallen away and the small shacks that surround this pit are in complete disarray. Makeshift wooden walkways crisscross the gap and connect the tunnels to the central platform where an old crane sits silent and unused. Wooden crates and barrels still containing implements or mining materials gathered here still remain and may yet be of use.
