The young women were last seen alive in the 1990s.
A search of open land is expected to continue today, in connection with the disappearance and murder of Jo Jo Dullard and Deidre Jacob.
The young women were last seen alive in the 1990s.
Yesterday diggers and a bulldozer carried out initial searches at the area on the Wicklow-Kildare border.
Jo Jo Dullard was reported missing after failing to return home from a night out in Dublin on the 9th of November 1995. The last anybody heard from her was when Jo Jo phoned her friend from Moone in Kildare on her way back to Kilkenny.
Deidre Jacob was last seen alive near her home in Newbridge in Kildare on the afternoon of the 28th of July 1998.
Both cases were upgraded to murder in recent years and Gardai are continuing to appeal for information in relation to their whereabouts.
Today a search of an old quarry site near Castleruddery in County Wicklow is expected to continue.
The area of open land was initially dug up in February but Gardai suspended the search after 10 days, only resuming it yesterday.
