Exploration History

1927: Summerville Lead Mines Limited operated the old Victoria lead mine. 1937: Consolidated Lead Mines, Limited was the operator. The previous operators erected camp and plant buildings and sank a 2-compartment shaft, with levels at 50 and 100 feet. A local resident reported that from the bottom of the shaft there was a drift 90 feet long to the northeast, one 70 feet long to the southwest and a crosscut 10 feet to the northwest. No veins were found in the crosscut. Drifting on the vein showed its maximum width to be 10 inches (AR Vol 52 pt 2, p50-51).
