The reasons which have induced the projectors to take this step are that an interest is in the hands of trustees and the present owners have not the required capital at their command to erect the machinery for draining the mine, to enable them to work at a greater depth. So soon us the • required pumping machinery is erected, payable stone can be raised. The last parcel of stone taken out at and below the water-level, and crushed, having yielded at the rate of one ounce per ton; and, as the reef is becoming better defined, it is anticipated that only a small portion ot the capital of the Company will be required to be called .tip.Y 7, ii T The claim is situate on the side of the, famed Conroy's Gully, whicli has proved one ot the richest opened in the Dunstan district, and it is the opinion of miners that this reef is the matrix from which the gully has been supplied with the precious metal.
