A considerable quantity of stone, (over 700 tons,) has been raised and crushed, which has
averaged over one ounce per ton, and as greater depths are reached the atone gives evidence of increasing richness. Two shafts have been sunk from the upper levels to the water level (about eighty feet), and the tunnel now in course of construction will not only drain the workings to a depth of 450 feet, but will open out an extensive field of payable quartz, capable of keeping the company crushing continuously for years. The tunnel is one hundred and forty feet into the ground at present, and the reef may he met at any moment; in which ea- e the probability would.be that no further calls would require to he made by the Directors. If any are required, they will he made not to exceed Is 6d per share per month. Four,hundred and fifty feet in length of, reef at present exists under foot in the workings, proving that an extensive mine only wants development.
