GOLD-MINING
MANAGER’S REPORT The report of the manager of the Caledonia Kuranui Moanataiari Consolidated Gold Mining Company for the week ending March 17, is given below: The drive seaward on main reef from No. 1 winze has been extended 6 feet, a total of 118 feet. The reef here averages 18 inches wide, but is still very mixed with mullock. There is a little water coming from the face. It may be from where the reef is making again. The drive on footwall leader oft seaward end has been extended 5 feet, a total of 65 feet. The reef here averages 3 feet wide and is a fine body of stone carrying nice mineral blend, ruby silver and silica. Colours of gold are still seen in the ore. I have been running the battery a few days this week on a trial parcel of ore.
