The Wonder Caves are said to have been discovered by Italian miners in 1898 where they mined out approximately 15% from the formation and brought them to the surface. Mining was stopped in 1902 due to the outbreak of war and low productivity. This is the 3rd largest chamber is South Africa, the largest being Cango Caves and second largest Sudwala Caves. The cave is entered by going down 87 stairs at a 45 degrees angle dropping 22 meters below the surface. You will then go down an elevator with a drop of a further 18 meters into the cave.
