In 1911 a quartz crusher was unearthed in McCrae Street during excavations at the site of the new St.Kilian's Girls Club Rooms. It was used by the late Mr. James Irons. It was found at a depth of ten feet. Mr. Angus Kennedy, who believed that he manufactured the plant for Mr. Irons, said Mr. Irons used to crush very rich quartz from the Sheepshead Reef, south of the Big Blue Battery. Some years ago, a solid granite stone-crusher was seen at Diamond Hill. It was at the site of the old Diamond Hill Hotel. The Comet Reef was found by Mr. Driesslau, who found gold in an outcrop when he was shooting parrots. Also mentioned is the tunnel that goes right through Diamond Hill.document, gold, mining in bendigo, mining in bendigo, unearthed quartz crusher, messrs ballerstedt, wittschiebe, luffsman, roeder lazarus, kock, hildebrandt, bruhn, miller, annear, wells, rae, jackson, woodward, sterry, burrowes, thorp, heine, holmes, gould, allen, brooks, watson, geo lansell, bendigo advertiser april 28th 1911, st kilian's girls' club rooms, mr james irons, mr angus kennedy, sheepshead reef, big blue battery, diamond hill hotel, victoria proprietary ltd., comet reef, mr driesslau, diamond hill tunnel -
