Indarra is a 100 metres north-south striking line of shafts, 100 metres west of the Goldfields Highway, and approximately half-way between Broad Arrow and the Paddington mine.
Limited information was found. The earliest source was 1908 and 1909, the latter stating John Lauritz and party had crushed 45 tonnes for 86.15 ounces.
Lauritz returned in 1927, while at the same time R.G. Ardagh is sampling the property for the Vivien Gem Company from Lawlers.
Later sources state 10 000 pounds worth of gold from 1440 tonnes of ore was obtained. Another states there were three periods of operations, the first achieving 26 tonnes for 52 ounces, then 671 tonnes for 1008 ounces and finally 14 tonnes for 5 ounces. Sources also states the mine before 1909 was named Indarra (which also shows on maps), and was operated at one stage in its early years by the Kalgurli Recovery Syndicate.
