Hiking to the Ghost Town of Adamsfield, South West Tasmania

In November 1924 a discovery was made by 5 men in a remote creek. 42 kilometres from the nearest township of Fitzgerald, Tasmania. The discovery was to be the worlds largest alluvial deposit of Osmiridium. The densest element on the planet and is believed to have arrived via meteorite. At the time, this natural occuring alloy was worth seven times the price of Gold.
In this video I head out into the remote part of Tasmania South West to discover what remains of the once booming township of Adamsfield.
