Clearly this has already been excavated further along here and somebody has sealed it up and they put up these danger keep out signs all the way around it.
They're really trying to keep us away.
I
don't like this at all.
No.
Well, I'm pretty sure this is the right place.
I mean, I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.
You remember that Geron Poseth told you that he and the other exploratory team had been told to go back down and seal up the cavern that they'd found.
All right, let's see what we can do.
And he's going to go up and climb to the top of the pile and see if it's possible to squeeze through.
And if not, how we can start dislodging this block.
Yeah, I think in your experience, mining experience, you know that there's not room to squeeze through.
But with picks and shovels, you could... maybe in an hour or so, clear a fairly big space.
You can do it by hand, but it's going to be hard work.
And after a while, hopefully between the three of you, you should be able to just about clear enough space to squeeze through.
It's not going to be easy.
And in terms of equipment, is there going to be any equipment left down here? Is there going to be a family's face nearby that we can do it, or are we out of luck?
You need to go back a while, yeah.
There will be equipment, but you're going to need to head back down the tunnels to get it.
There's nothing up in this bit.
They've clearly intended this area not to be used.
Right.
I
mean, we could do this by hand, but I don't know how much light's left in this lamp, and we need to get through as quick as we can.
I suggest we just cut back a bit.
