Very interesting. Similar to the wattle bark stripping around Port MacDonnell, just across the SA border, where Wilke's bark mill ground and crushed bark from 1874 to 1920, exporting it all via sea - the mill being connected with the jetty by its own tramway. Golden wattle and Black wattle was found to be the best, having a higher tannin content.
Great stuff FH. Thank you. I could listen to the old fella for hours on end .
