What remains

Only the timbered portal, a heavy steel gate that blocks access to the mine, a few pieces of rail, and the long dump that parallels the creek and extends to the east remain at this site. No structures remain standing at the Newman.
 
A small amount of water issues from the heavily gated portal during springtime runoff, otherwise the dump and the portal area are dry.
