A former mine worked via shafts, drives, crosscuts, stoping, and adits.

The mine occurs on a west contact of narrow body of serpentinite emplaced in a NW trending shear zone.

(per Minview) "There appears to be some confusion in records for this mine versus the Robinson and Rices Mine to the E. Beams and Lesh". Hence the duplication of the Robinson name for this mine.
