Here the complete answer :
US TM H-4-2-8 : Belgian Landmines ATk ND/M1 & ND/M2 (formerly 60H-4-2-1-3), if you can read it !
1st pic : the bakelite body we found !
2nd pic : the mine in our didactical room
3rd pic : copy of the fuze, coming from TM (US)
In fact, when you take a picture of this mine, you take it always upside down ! On the pics of Hazord as on mine, the upper face you can see is the bottom of the mine.
What you see is the secondary fuze well ! (4th pic)

Over to you, Hazord !

Yoda, am I understanding you correctly, that the mine you found was just an empty body?
 
Exact ! In 2011, we must go to the manufacturor (bakelite specialities) wich made the bodies of this mine for PRB in the years 50-60 !
They made earthworks and found just one body. Someone, an old keykeeper, remember that, long time ago, the manufacturor made those bodies, and.........thought that this body was full !
Badly (or fortunately !), it was completely full of mud, stones,.....
