A mound of earth contains the well-preserved remains of four cement cyanide vats, with a dam and an impressive water race (the Wilson's Hill Channel) located alongside them.
The cyanide vats are found in the lower part of the reserve, and easily accessed from the Wimmera Highway. See map for exact location.
The circular vats are visible from above using Google Maps satellite view:
