"The old limestone quarry at Rogerley was initially investigated in 1972 by Lindsay Greenbank and Michael “Mick” Sutcliffe, where they discovered two mineralised veins. These were named in their honour as the Greenbank and Sutcliffe veins, the former being named by Sir Kingsley Dunham, then Professor Emeritus of Geology at the University of Durham and director of the British Geological Survey."
