RICH GOLD DISCOVERY.
Melbourne, Yesterday,
There is great excitement over the discovery of further large nuggets at the Poseidon claim, Tarnagulla. Two men, Stephenson and Williamson, unearthed a lump weighing 373 ounces. A few minutes later Woodall’s party of four in the adjoining claim discovered a nugget of 960 ounces, resembling in appearance the famous “ Welcome Nugget. ’ ’ Both were found about 18 inches below the surface, close to where previous finds had been made. This is believed to be the richest ground for nuggets ever worked in Australia.
