George, have you heard of anyone taking a trip to the Kolar Gold Fields
mines? I heard they used to be among the deepest gold mines in the
world, but couldn't get any tourist information. I remember reading a
blog which mentioned that people were being allowed to pan the tailings.
Could be an interesting winter weekend trip.
Regards,
George
