The Prince Henry (Lot 2636) is located east of Greenwood and west of the Last Chance (Lot 753)(082ESE216).

A 45-centimetre quartz vein with values in gold, silver and lead occurs in granodiorite of the Jurassic-Cretaceous Greenwood Stock.

In 1906, the claim was Crown Granted and development by the Prince Henry Mining Co. Development consisted of a 34-metre shaft and 20 metres of drifting. Shipments in 1906, 1917 and 1925 totalled 19 tonnes, resulting in 404 grams of gold, 40,060 grams of silver and 1130 kilograms of lead.

During 2008 through 2012, Grizzly Discoveries Inc. completed programs of soil, stream sediment and rock sampling, geological mapping and ground geophysical surveys on the area as the Overlander area of the Greenwood property.
