In the shaft, broken rock is hoisted up in a 'kibble'
At the end of the day on Boscaswell Cliff - 20/01/10
A miner's 'crowst' corner
A narrow adit
In the shaft, broken rock is hoisted up in a 'kibble'
Colours show this lode contains several minerals
Into one of the Geevor 'catacombs'

In the shaft, broken rock is hoisted up in a 'kibble'

Note the miner climbing a ladder from another level. In Cornish, the word 'kibell' translates as 'bucket' or 'tub'. The barrow awaits loading from the kibble.
