The Lightning Ridge (Moxom Well) Mine is located 11 kilometres northeast of Braeside Station in the Braeside lead field.

The mining here followed a quartz-filled subvertical fault over 1.07 kilometres at 290 degrees. Mining has been minimal.

Production between 1949 and 1954 was 19.3 tonnes of lead and 2.7 kilograms of silver.

Galena, pyrite, sphalerite, acanthite, chalcocite, djurleite, chalcopyrite, chrysocolla, covellite, jarosite, plumbojarosite, cerussite, calcite, malachite, rosasite, pyromorphite, hemimorphite, kaolinite, illite, quartz, goethite, hematite, coronadite, plattnerite, brochantite, bornite, anglesite, brackebuschite, descloizite, mottramite, and vanadinite have been found here.

The Western Australian Government Chemical Laboratories identified brackebuschite in a sample (MDC 4998, Simpson Collection) whose location is given as Braeside. The mineral occurs as minute dark brown translucent crystals in a vanadinite-descloizite ore body. Specimen MDC 4998 also contains vanadinite and descloizite. To further define the location of MDC 4998, the following information could be relevant. The 1:250,000 Topographic Sheet puts the Braeside Mining Centre label close to the Moxam Well location, which is situated on Vanadium Creek. Hancock, et.al. (2007) mentions descloizite-mottramite being common minerals in the Devon’s Cut and Moxom Well deposits. Simpson (1951) also observed that the vanadium minerals, vanadinite, mottramite and descloizite have been found in several lead lodes, but particularly in Vanadium Gully (Creek). Moxom Well is therefore suggested as the most likely source for MDC 4998.

Details for this location are also taken from its’ entry (site code S0026212) in the Western Australian Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety's online database (MINEDEX) of mines, mineral deposits and prospects.
