LUCK'S ALL.
I was present this morning et the breaking down of a portion of the quartz from the blue leader in the winze at No. 2 level and saw some nice specimens,, obtained from the main branch. This blue leader is a conglomeration of minute quartz threads, the largest not being more than half an inch in thickness, and all of these contain gold, more or less, some of them resembling little baeds of . gold through a belt of grey mullock. The footwall portion of the lode carries the most likely looking veins, and it is this portion of the lode that was been broken to-day. There is nothing fresh to report in any other portion of the mice. I may add that the manager, to-day lodged for . safe keeping in the Bank of flew Zealand a parcel of good specimen weighing about a dozen pounds.
