The Manager's and Superintendent's camp, Mount Isa Mines Limited. This was located in what become known as Mile's Area for Mine Manager's Reports. The suburb opposite is known as Miles End. This camp's location is approximately west of the Barkly Hotel. E. Saint Smith is standing on the left. This was relocated to Mineside in 1925. The rock outcrop over the top of the tin shed is Campbell Miles' "Mount Isa" lease. Caption read: Superintendent Saint Smith and Managers Camp and Store Mt Isa Mines Ltd R Burness Photo.

Barry Merrick said:
On the left of the photograph is the winder house of No. 1 Ore Shaft; the right is the redundant original Lead Smelter stack. Directly behind the men is the "new", at the time, Lead Smelter Stack. Between the old and new stacks the collected fumes etc in the lead smelter operations are processed in a filtration plant for prior to release to the atmosphere. The large black hill is granulated lead slag, very glass like material. This was a huge hill and became known as Mt. Haney.
