Yep there are four of them official but I did hear that there was an
unoffical fifth. However, that's the extent I've heard of that one. I also
believe that none have been found there for about a century or so. Tasmania
had a very strong mining industry in the past and I think a few of them were
found around that time.

Cheers,

Jeff

Hi, List & Steve,

WHOOPS!
I have covered my head in shame, I just didn't know better. But Bob Walker
did! Ref. forwarded e-mail.
I would be interested in a nice slice of the Lefroy iron. If somebode has
got some, please let me know off the list.
Better dig myself in again.

Cheers,
