Mount Brockman Group is located approximately 4.8 kilometres northwest of Devons Cut in the Braeside lead field. It consists of three small mines that are located on widely scattered quartz veins in silicified fault zones striking at 320-330 degrees and dipping at 75 degrees east in the Maddina Basalt.
Galena, cerussite and quartz are recorded from this group.
Production from the group between 1947 and 1955 was 52.8 tonnes of lead and 17.6 kilograms of silver.
