Located 9.7 kilometres west south-west of Bloodwood Well.
Chrysocolla, malachite, chalcocite, limonite, manganese oxides, opaline, gypsum, and quartz in a fault cutting pale weathered shale. When inspected in the mid 1970's it contained several shallow shafts. A small tonnage was produced in 1962.
Little can be seen on satellite images to verify the deposit, and the Mindat co-ordinates are based on maps.
