Statement of Significance
The mine was situated to the west of the Madam Berry leasehold and east of the Creswick-Lawrence road. It worked a rich portion of the Australasian lead, one of the two main branches of the Berry Lead system.
The mine was the third most productive on the lead system (after the Madam berry and Berry Consols mines) and one of the most profitable during the 1890's when it employed between 180 and 350 people.
The No. 1 shaft has an extensive mullock dump and area of slum, and the engine foundations are representative of the more conventional machinery then in use.
