Located about 150 metres north of Giles Elbaite pegmatite. It is thought to have also been discovered by A. S. Giles. The pegmatite was excavated by a backhoe sometime after 1970, but its history is unknown. The pegmatite is thirty metres long, one metre thick, and contains a two metre deep pit. Colour left indicates green, pink and deep blue tourmaline was once present, but any specimens that may have been recovered remains a mystery.
