Campbell indicates that the mine was located north of the Three Colonies Extended and mostly on the lake bed.
The reef trended north-west to south-east, and was several feet thick. An open cut had been developed on the lake edge on a large, vertical, and apparently barren reef. Various old workings were scattered about the lease when inspected in 1906, some out on the lake bed. The lease contained seven shafts to a maximum depth of 41 feet. Abandoned due to the heavy water inflow into the workings. No crushing records found.
Co-ordinates are estimated, based on the collapsed shafts in the area.
