Husaberg, were you thinking of the other thread with Grumph and the Ngahere?
Birchfield Minerals - Grey River Gold Dredge @ Ngahere when I saw it
Probably way passed that stop now.
I still have the Shirt.
Well worth any chance of getting a look inside.
Gold mining on a scale probably unseen in the Nth Island except at Waihi
And for those going via road, from memory these are the best roads I can remember being on.
That picture brings back good memories of a great period in my life.
READ AND UDESTAND
it was a thread DREDGE
I am pretty well acquainted with the subject though its about 15km away.
its for sale back on the east side of the river and has been mothballed again for about 4 years at least.
after its last 12 year or more mothballing

It needs high gold price and low power price, plus less conditions from the objecting neighbour to run 24/7. Its a shame as it really makes a lot of productive land, while straightening out the river.
Funny enough the family that owns it also has a rather large coal mining interests as well, as other large scale gold mines.
I have always thought it was a shame it wasn't converted to diesel electric.
