Located approximately 89 kilometres south-west of Halls Creek.
Jaconson et.al. states Taylor's Lookout is located at 314,862E and 7,906,112N, UTM52, GDA94. Unlike some of the other localities on the Mount Dockrell field, both MINEDEX and Hassan(2000) agree with this. However, Hassan states only alluvial cassiterite and tantalum can be found, while Fetherston (2004) states it is a pegmatite containing beryl and spodumene.
The pegmatites at Columbium Creek were discovered in 1927. Across 1980-1982, the Australian Anglo American Prospecting Pty Ltd searched unsuccessfully for economic grades of niobium and tantalum across the Mount Dockrell area. There was an exploration for tungsten in creek beds around the Taylor's Lookout area from 1980-1986 by Union Oil Development.
Fetherston (2004) states the Taylor's Lookout prospect has spodumene, beryl, cassiterite and columbite.
