True Blue nucleated lead mine is a recorded lead mining site located approximately six hundred metres to the south-east of Magpie Mine in Derbyshire. The site represents a worked lead deposit of the early industrial period, characteristic of the intensive mineral extraction that occurred across the Derbyshire Peak District during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The nucleated form of the mine indicates a concentrated working area with surface features typical of lead mining operations from this era, including spoil heaps and evidence of shallow underground extraction methods. The site is documented as a scheduled monument owing to its archaeological significance as a record of the region's important mining heritage.
