    DEEP LEAD MINE ON OLDHAM LEAD - Heritage Inventory Description

    The mullock is the most prominent feature at this site. It is orientated north east to south west and is 35m by 15m by 3m high, its regular shape is broken along the north side by the start of what appears to have been another arm to this mullock heap. Quartz wash is scattered south west of the heap for a distance of 30 metres, as well as on the east side of the heap. The other important feature at this site is a dam (possibly a slum dam), 80m south west of the heap. It is 30m by 30m with a raised mound 0.5m high around the perimeter. There are no other features that give any indication of how this mine operated.
