GML 1528. Adjacent and east of the Three Star gold mine. It was on a northern extension of the Legacy Reef. The reef ran north-south, and dipped west. A shaft in 1906 had been sunk to 59 feet, with 30 feet of driving north. The reef was 2 feet wide at the northern end of the drive, but only 10 inches wide at its south end. To the north on the lease was a second shaft to 30 feet but it had cut a granite bar and the reef was broken. Several shafts to the north had failed to pick up the reef, which may have ceased to exist in this area.
The mine achieved 103 tonnes of ore for 107 ounces of gold during its short life.
