I also worked in that mill. It was quite small, consisting of a jaw crusher, a vibrating screen, ball mill and classifier, finally ending up with four flotation cells.

One thing I will always remember about working there was coming out of the mine on the mine tram on a cold winter day with wet clothes ("diggers" we called them) Even though waterproof you were almost instantly coated with ice.
