The Neta Extended Gold Mine is between Senate and Gawler mine, and separate from the Neta and Neta Junction mines at the northern end of the lode. The site consists of a series of long trenches parallel and bordering the road, and a few shafts.
Companies took over a block of leases including the Neta Extended in 1895, 1909, 1924 and 1935, and more information on these entities can be found under the Neta Gold Mine Mindat locality.
