The only report found was from 1928. It is described as being located approximately 750 metres south of the Hillcrest Mine. It is owned at this time by a Constable Wright and J. Combes. Total production from the mine up to this point was 300 tonnes for 105 oz at 7 dwt per tonne. There is a shaft to 120 feet. The article indicates the shaft was only being sunk further down to gain water, it is assumed for gold production from the higher levels. The Mindat co-ordinates are approximate, and no major workings can be seen.
