The Central Red White and Blue Gold Mine was located on the corner of Chum St and Honeysuckle St in Golden Square. Extract from Whitelaw Report: Central Red White and Blue Mine, Bendigo. Author: H E Whitelaw Share Abstract Early in 1910, some considerable time after it had become generally known that a rich reef at a depth of 405 ft was being worked southward from the privately owned Lansell's Little 180 shaft and immediately following the plotting of the Geological Survey pitch diagram of the Sheepshead line of reefs, some wide awake local mining men seized the opportunity to secure the holding known as Eadie's which, overlapping Lansell's lease and containing a stretch of the Sheepshead reef channel between the Little 180 north and south shafts, had been declared void some five years previously. That the Lansell Estate did not acquire this property on its becoming available is puzzling in the light of the fact that in Eadie's day the late Mr G W Lansell, on discovering auriferous spurs in the south shaft (now the Central Blue) had offered 2,000 pounds for, and a percentage of gold won from the lease. https://search.informit.org/doi/10.3316/aesis.200105326 Draftsman's drawing of Central Red, White and Blue Mine Map.
