In late 1986 blasting occurred in the Orange Mountain Basalt adjacent to this intersection. A 30 foot deep trench was excavated for the construction of a sewerage pumping station. A 18 foot long tube with two 6 foot long offshoots was discovered towards the bottom half of this hole. The tube was lined with prehnite fingers after anhydrite up to 2 inches long, associated with calcite. Many hundreds of specimens were removed from this location over a three month period.
