QUARTZ REEF MINE - Heritage Inventory Description
/nSite No.133 is a quartz reef mine. It is a substantially intact 5 finger mullock heap fanning from north to west around a depression where the shaft was located. The fingers vary in length from 15 to 30 m, in width from 5 to 10 m and in height from 1.5 to 3 m. There are several smaller shafts along the east side of this gully in a northerly direction from this site. These shafts with their surrounding mullock heaps are between 10 and 15 m in diameter and between 1.5 and 2 m high. A few of these shafts are open. There is also a cluster of 6 shallow open shafts on the ridge 150 m south east of the larger site. These shafts are surrounded by mullock heaps 10 m in diameter and 1 m high. Some of these open shafts still have timber at the top, suggesting a fairly that they are fairly recent.
