Three years to the day after she went missing, police located human remains in the renewed search for Lucinda Miller last Thursday.
Acting inspector Paula Linford said the remains, clothing and a vodka bottle that were located 80 metres off the roadside were "consistent" with Lucinda.
"We think that everything is consistent with it being Lucinda, but we have to have that confirmed forensically to make sure that it is actually Lucinda," she said.
"We were able to find the bottle that we were looking for and some of the clothing that Lucinda was wearing has also been found."
Acting insp Linford said the remains were found "down a hill and in quite thick bushland."
