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 be met at any moment; in which ease the probability would be that no further calls would require to be made by the Directors..
