Where did Havieron get its name?

Post by FSA_63 »

I have tried to find out on the interweb, expecting to find it comes from a Spanish or Portuguese word meaning “place where all the shiny stuff is buried.”

All I have managed to find is:
Havier (noun) - A castrated deer (dead or alive)

Maybe it’s a question for Shaun when Liam does a follow up interview?

It could be a question for the Stag Gang.

It was called Havieron when NCM were drilling it in the 1990s

Hi All. All you have to do is ask the Stag gang, we know everything. The name came from a dyslexic geologist who thought he had found iron. ATB Speedy
