The Mitchell Gold Mine is approximately 5 kilometres south of the Higginsville processing plant. It was a palaeochannel deposit with gold found in soil anomalies. See the Higginsville Goldfield Mindat sub locality for geology information. It was probably mined in the late 1990's to early 2000's. It is a north-south striking, sinuous, irregular, narrow, partly water filled pit. Mullock from the mine forms a low plateau bordering its eastern side.
