The Laurier and Tamrak claims lies along the south side of Lendrum Creek, and may be reached by about 3 kilometres of road from the Florence mine. This is one of a number of claims lying between the Florence and Silver Glance properties. The claim was Crown granted to The Laurier M. & M. Co. in 1899. Owner of the property in 1949 was E. Emilson. The last record of work was in 1951.

The country rocks are argillite, cherts, limestone and schists of the Mississippian to Lower Permian Milford Group. From 1949 to 1951, 21 tonnes of ore were shipped. From this ore 13,654 grams of silver, 5,988 kilograms of lead and 1700 kilograms of zinc were recovered.
