The Result of the Month's Crushing.
(fbom otje own cobbespondent).
WAIORONGOMAI.
This Day, 3 30 p.m. The retorts are just off the fire, and the following are the results: —
■ .-; ■, :.' , ■-: ■ - .- OZS. New Find 664 Premier 437 Werahiko ... ... ... 252 Colonist ... ... ... 242 Waitoki ... ... ... 36 Total 1631
About 50 more ounces are expected to be obtained from the silver.
The tonnage crushed for the above return has not yet been made public.
Mr Firth will not erect his second 40 head mill for the present, but a tailings plant will be at once put up near the present battery.
The visitors are now busily engaged inspecting the various mines.
Great preparations have been made for the dinner to night, and the affair promises to be highly successful.
[Note. —Another telegram received by us gives the total as 16360z5, so there is evidently a trifling error in some of the above figures.—Ed. Stab]
