CENTRAL AUSTRALIAN INDUSTRIAL ARCHEOLOGY DISCOVERY BY TOP END INDIANA JONES

 More   photographs  from  the   collection  of  nomadic agronomist   Robert  Wesley-Smith .

Out in the desert and gold bearing   country of Central  Australia, near Rabbit Flats, nearly 50 years ago, an old rock breaker , more like a  mini  gold stamper,   was  snapped  from many  angles, showing  its  components  and an  upside down  view  which   resulted  in  an  arty mop-topped  Easter Island- like  figure .




A few days ago ,Wes sent this blog a photo showing Darwin has  had so much rain  that his own billabong ,called  Lake Weslee , is so high the water is  over  the  landing   jetty .
