GRENVILLE CO - Heritage Inventory Description
This site appears to be in two parts with each part made of quite large mullock and quartz wash heaps orientated around where a shaft would have been. Neither part is intact, as it appears that there have been removals from these sites./nThe western part of the site is split by a drainage line which has cut through the quartz wash heap. The mullock at this part runs roughly east west and covers an area of 70 m by 50 m and is up to 3.5 m high. It does not have a regular shape and these dimensions are only indicative. The quartz wash heap has two arms running north south, both are 70 m long. One is 25 m wide and 5 to 6 m high and the other is 15 m wide and 3 m high. The drainage line cuts through the northern end of these heaps./nA depression indicates the shaft location at the eastern part of the site. There is a pile of basalt rocks to the east of the shaft. The mullock heap runs south west from the shaft. It has three fingers. Two are 40 to 50 m long and 20 m wide and up to 3.5 m high. The third runs west for 50 m before bending south for 20 m. Another small mullock is south of the end of this third finger. Poorly defined low fingers of quartz wash run north from the third finger of mullock, and cover a triangular area 50 m long by 40 m at the east end tapering down to zero at the west end.
