An old, abandoned underground mine on the Comet-Maestries line of lode. Reopened breifly by open cut in the mid 1980's, when some good specimens were recovered. These include reasonable crystals of sphalerite and galena on dolomite and siderite, and some are still available on the remaining dumps and open cuts. Since its closure the mine gate has been locked, requiring a steep 2km return walk unless you can find a key.
