This mine worked several NS-trending lodes in the area immediately north of the Treamble mine. One of the lodes was the southern extension of Trebellan lode, and it is also believed, that it was this lode that was exposed in the western pit of the Treamble Mine.
The mine formed part of the Great Retallack sett. It produced 5 tons of lead ore in 1869.
