  Development of the 215 level highlighted a

  to the north west (termed the 215 Shear). This 
  structure, rather than the ‘79’ Fault, has resulted 
  in the offset in the lode system below the 215 
  level and this has been confirmed in re-examina- 
  tion of the drill core. Mining on various levels 
  above and below the structure revealed it 
  bisected the 79 Fault in a very similar position to 
  where the lodes were truncated on a number of 
  
  A total of $6.3 million was spent on numerous
