QUEEN OF BEAUTY.
Both'-tf%npany and tributers retort on Saturday, and I am informed that the yields of both will be about the same It is expected that both will be something between 150 and 200ozs each. Since my last report the drive into the Queen of the May section has reached the winze put down by the Queen of the May at the point where the lode splits into the hanging and footwall sections. This will permit of legitimate mining operations being resumed on a pretty large scale, as the block now opened ia 300 feet long, with some 40 odd feet of backs; In the meantime the contractors driving from the Piako low level (the contract let Monday) -will be bringing up their drive, and will, it is hoped, soon tap the water in the low level.
