A town in northern NSW.

From Tony Forsyth: I have been doing a project for the Kyogle Shire Council in 2022, placing a display of local minerals into three shire venues. Many of the local mineral specimens have come from council quarries that the council has operated for well over 100 years. Probably the most prolific specimen quarry was Tindall's Quarry. The name has been misspelled in many places, but I believe this to be the correct spelling. The name was derived from the family whose property it was on. Previous to Tindall's it was called Chadburn's Quarry to further muddy the labelling.
