Hey Trev,

The Little Bendigo Co. were a registered mining outfit who sunk a 39.6ft shaft through sandstone and shale for a total of 303oz of yella from 2301 tonnes of crap.

The exact position of their shaft was precicely just to the right and slightly to the left of the eucalypts out there East of Ballarat.

I may or may not have a pretty good idea of where that shaft is today, but perhaps you could explain why it's of such interest to you first? I don't want to be responsible for someone falling down a pit.

Don't know why you can't find Nerrina. It's on any map or Google. North east outskirts of Ballarat.
