John Cooper, Wayne Starsmore, Adrian Vanderplank and Jude Vanderplank. Jude testing how recovery coming along. Meanwhile rest to dig face to pop a boulder blocking view on at high level in bottom tunnel. John drilled one hole then Adrian drilled second. Fired from a couple of metres up the bottom shaft. Fumes caught Adrian up when he was halfway up the bottom shaft but then vanished into roof at top. 1½ hours.
