Jenny's Reward is a shallow open pit accessing oxide ore, in the Lake Goongarrie salt-pan. It was developed by Julia Mines Ltd in 1989 as part of four small pits and a CIP processing plant. Cyclonic flooding caused Julia Mines to abandon the project. The pit is about 1 kilometre south-east of Goongarrie.
Warning- the road to the mine is cut by a deep trench, which appears without notice. The last 500 metres needs to be walked.
