Geocache Description:

A nice easy drive-by, especially if you happen to be heading towards Minburra.

Exciting times ahead for the town of Orroroo?

Drilling has begun not far from this area by Linc Energy. Five exploration wells intersected coal at depths of between 200 and 293 metres with coal seam thickness of up to 23 metres. The coal deposit is at an ideal depth for Underground Coal Gasification (UGC). Linc Energy believes this can support 500 MW of high efficiency power generation and can also support a plant to produce 20,000 barrels per day of ultra-clean synthetic fuel. The production life of the combined facilities based on the scale of the deposit is expected to be approximately 75 years.
