The Golden Lizard Gold Mine was near the Neta mine at the northern end of the lode.
It came to light in 1919, that a Kalgoorlie syndicate had acquired the mine. The mine had originally produced 469 tonnes of ore for 415 ounces of gold from a shaft 65 feet deep.
Jason Byfield was the mine manager. The shaft was un-watered and was sunk further to 150 feet. Further development occurred in 1921, with driving along a reef 3 feet 6 inches wide. A crushing occurred mid 1921 from the 85 foot level in the mine.
It is reported in 1930 to be worked again by a Perth syndicate after being abandoned for many years Little appears to have happened, as in 1932 the poppet frame at the mine was transferred to the Patricia South lease, being worked by the Kimberley Oil Options NL at a new find south-east of Edjudina.
