Part of the Great Consolidated Mines group.
See main Great Consolidated Mines page for details of the group.
A single shaft collar stands isolated in a green field close to the road. The collar is essentially intact though part of the wall on the far side has been removed, revealing that the filling is dirt with a little shale and other than white quartz no mineralisation is immediately obvious. The shaft is sufficiently overgrown that it is not obvious if it is caged. Jan. 2023
