Warrandyte Mine - need help with the location of one

[sdp1989]

Hey, I've grown up in Warrandyte all my life and I thought I new where all the mines were. I remember my cousins used to take me into them when i was young. Oviously now there all closed because there deemed dangerous. Recently I stumbled on to one at a friends property that backs onto tills drive. After trying to find some more information on it I found my self looking at this page " users.tpg.com.au/tashmick/goldmines11.html"

I noticed a mine called " NILLUMBIK MINE - THE HIDDEN MINE" just wondering where abouts this is??

I've included two photos of the mine on my friends property, its collapsed but I believe it goes in further

I don't think you can post photos yet. Read the rules: you have to have SO many posts before you can post pics.

Loamer, Fairdinkum mate, do you have a team of investigators at your disposal? Or a Warehouse where you keep all this stuff?

That's all I know mate - try and get a read of James Fletts 'The History of Gold Discovery in Victoria' at your library - he mentions nearly every spot in Victoria. (Including all the suburban goldfields - Collingwood, the City, Flagstaff Hill etc etc.

Do you have a photo loamer of the "The History of Gold Discovery in Victoria" so I know what to keep my eyes out for in the shops? I may have stumbled across it a couple of months ago in a antique / book store

*edit: Sorry loamer, ignore that question I found it using the "internet".. I kinda forgot I was sitting in front of it :/

Hmmm not an easy book to buy or even find by the looks of it.
