About This
CompanyThe operations of Lake
George Mines Pty Ltd were centred on a lead-zinc, copper and gold mine
situated at Captain's Flat, located south east of Canberra. The area had
been mined in the late 19th century but was forced to close when production
became unprofitable as processes used at the time recovered relatively low
metal values. In the 1920s the British company, National Mining Corporation,
examined the area and decided that the mine could be worked profitably again
using modern extraction methods. Lake George Mines was incorporated as a
limited liability company in September 1930. It became a proprietary company
on 5 May 1948. Operations ceased in March 1962 following the exhaustion of
further stopes and the increasingly unsafe condition of the mine. The London
based holding company, Lake George Mining Corporation Limited, was placed
into voluntary liquidation on March 31 1964. |
