A beryl-columbite pegmatite on the west bank of Morrissey Creek, located 2.5 kilometres north-east of Mica Well. The site was historically used as a campsite as it is near a waterhole along Morrissey Creek, and hence was called Caravan pegmatite. The reference doesn't shed any light on jade at the location, the name on WAMIN database. The pegmatite does contain abundant albite and apatite with small columbite inclusions.
