Bean (with Wilke) bought into a gold discovery "Golding's Find" at Mount Torrens in 1870. and was a director in James Scott's "El Dorado" Mount Pleasant mine in 1872. He was on the board of the South Australian Zoological and Acclimatization Society. He resigned or was dropped in 1884. In 1884 Bean Brothers Limited successfully sued him in the Supreme Court for making unauthorised payments. He was declared insolvent in 1885. He was in London at the time of his brother George's death in 1912. (en)
