Gold Mining at Reefton.
ON THE UP-GRADE
REEFTON, February 24. Mining here is on the up-grade. The lately-formed New Ulster (local) company struck good goldbearing broken quartz last week. On Saturday solid stone two feet wide was met with in No. 2 Level South. This means the developing of a lot of fresh country. The Golden Fleece mine, belonging to the Consolidated Goldfields Company partially closed three week:- ago pending development, has struck what is reported to be an exceptionally rich block of stone two feet wide, in No. 14 level. If the stone lasts the mine will prove of great value to the district.
