(1) G 4121
G 4121 B: In shaft and chamber. Down 6.15 meters. Drift sand, and in the chamber sand and underneath it limestone debris. Chamber on south. Cut in rock (partly in bed rock). On west appears a cut in rock the same as a chamber and not yet exposed, If that is a chamber or not. The two big stones which were thrown in the shaft are going down to the bottom of the shaft and we could put them in the chamber.

G 4121 J: In shaft. It is east of I. Lined with slabs on west to the beginning of the rock and the other sides with rubble. Total depth 1.65 meters. Drift sand and limestone debris. Ends at rock. No chamber. Drawing.

(1) G 4121
G 4121 B: In shaft. Down 7.9 meters. Drift sand. Limestone debris and dubsh. On May 29 we said that the chamber of that shaft on south, but it is wrong. We think that they first cut the chamber on south but they met shaft of A and they repaired the cutting and blocked and go down with the shaft. Perhaps the chamber will be on west or east. Not reached the rock in shaft and not reached the chamber.
