Often referred to simply as Spriggs Bore.
The Spriggs Creek Bore is simply that: a small dam with a cattle yard, where Spriggs Creek turns sharply north-south to east-west. Bores are often used as locations in the east Harts Range, as the only man-made items of note.
For various reasons, specimens are often labelled with the local bore, or general area names, rather than the specific mine, prospect, or deposit name they came from.
To reach the bore turn south onto a track immediately after the Plenty Highway crossing of the Entire Creek. Cross three creeks, and shortly after the third, head on a track west. This will cross one major creek, and immediately after the second (Spriggs Creek) is the bore. Locations listed under this heading are spread in an approximately 10 kilometre radius from the bore. Access to these may not be from the bore itself.
See main Ambalindum Station heading for access details.
