I was so pleased to see this article . As part of the National Australian Curriculum, Rocks and Mining are part of the year 8 course . I really wanted to take my students to a mine .The Hugh Wheals Mine at Moonta is now closed due to rockfall. When I saw this I thought, finally some where to take them .However after reading the article it does not say if tours are available( ideal for my class) or where the place is or who to contact or indeed if it is open to the public.Can you provide any more details or even tell me of other places my students could visit. I would love them to be able pan for gold!
