SIX OUNCES TO THE TON. A trial parcel of 28 tons of quartz from the Otama Mine, at Ivuaotunu, has just been crushed, and has returned at the rate of 6oz to the ton. Tho good news had an effect on the shares. One quarter of a share changed hands at £ls, thus fixing the value of the shares at £6O. THE KUAOTUNU GOLDFIELDS. ANOTHER GOOD YIELD. Thames, Feb. 20. The yield of 161 oz of melted gold from the 28 tons in Rowe’s Otama claim will be highly satisfactory to Kuaotunu people, proving the extensive character of the field. The cost was £6O to convey the quartz to the Thames for treatment at the Moanataiari battery.
