Notes

  1. Owned by Harry Grove, William Harre, H. Harre, George Thompson, and A. Lawery.
  2. Although the map is final and the base georegisters well with the land surface, the entry distances are not accurate, and the mine plan appears to be a sketch of the actual surveyed distances. The mine is shown as a general area of mining on the accompanying map.
