The face is 60 feet from the surface to the bottom, and there are three layers of wash, each about 5 feet thick, and each of which has shown on working from a grain to two grains of gold to the dish. All necessary water for the working of the land consisting of seven Government heads 20 in. x 2 in. has been secured by the promoters, and this supply of water further commands two miles of country. The proposed mode of working is by hydraulic power, with a sufficient sluicing fall, which from the nature of the land and other advantages secured, is easily obtainable.
