Mining at Wrey Consols resumed in 1857. The mining set comprised four lodes containing black and yellow copper ores, with an extension of the Wh Emma cross-course traversing its northern end. By 1860, the main lodes had been proven for 60 fathoms, and an adit driven into the valley side provided backs of up to 180 feet. However, despite upwards of £1400 being spent by 1861, the recorded output amounted to only a single ton of copper ore, sold for £8. Consequently, the mine ceased operations that year.
Hamilton Jenkin noted in 1959 that the adit, the shaft, and a small dump were still clearly visible. However, neither Dines nor Collins mentioned the mine, suggesting its relatively minor significance in the broader context of mining history.
