In hornblende gneiss.
"The deposit was worked for iron between 1870 and 1892. About 907 t of magnetite were mined from two pits measuring 15 by 23 m and 15 by 18 m."
The property is reached off a one rough lane road from Davis Lake Road. Use the coordinates of the mine dump shown to park at the corner of this one lane road using your GPS. Walk north into the bush along the old cart path about 0.7 km. The south dump is on your left.
The adjusted coordinates are at the top of the south mine dump.
