The Confidence Extended Gold Mine was located near the corner of Taylor Street and Upper California Road, Long Gully. CONFIDENCE EXTENDED This company, as will be soon by the plan, has a large lease holding on the extension of the line. The main shaft, which is in a fairly central position, is down about 2350 ft., while the lowest level at the N. shaft is at 1403ft. After making- allowances for the northerly pitch of the country, it is calculated that the main shaft would require to be deepened about 600ft. in order to pick lip the continuation of the reef being opened up successfully in the "Windmill Hill mine.

Koch's Pioneer Gold Mine: Koch's Pioneer Quartz Mining and Crushing Company was officially registered on June 30th., 1871 (Government Gazette No. 45, 1871). It operated at Long Gully, the first Manager was Andrew Lewis. Nominal capital was 90,000 pounds in thirty thousand shares of 3 pounds each. The initial partnership in a quartz crushing plant between Henry Koch, Simon Albert and Charles Wallin was dissolved in 1860 with Koch becoming the sole owner. In 1866 the crushing plant consisted of a 50 hp engine and 48 stamping heads capable of crushing 600 tons of quartz per week. By 1902 there were 72 stamps and this was by far the largest crushing plant in the area, serving many quartz mines. Henry Koch (1800-1889) was a German sailor who signed off when his ship reached Melbourne in 1851. Having heard of the gold discovery he proceeded to Bendigo where he was initially employed in puddling in the Myers Flat area. He was soon employed and then made partner in a quartz crushing plant that he became sole owner of in 1860. He was also landlord at the British and American Hotel and the Silver Mines Hotel. HE also started the Perseverance United gold claim. He married Anna Maria Theresia Heinz in 1857. In 1872 he sold the crushing plant for 75,000 pounds and took his family back to Germany. He resumed his trade as a ship builder although he maintained many Bendigo mining interests.Draftsman's drawing Confidence, Cornish, Kochs & Windmill Hill Long and Transverse Sections.
