There are signs of a revival in ( mining in the Auckland district. At 1 Waihi the parent company is obtaining consistent indications of permanent values, and the Grand Junction Company is rapidly opening up its lower levels, and recently struck a new and promising reef in the shafts. 1 At the Thames the deep-level scheme is being worked out, and should receive a spurt from the latest news, which is to the effect that gold has been cut in the Queen of Beauty section of the May Queen at No. 9 level """(-747 feet, down), which is the lowest , point at which gold has been got on the field, Coromandel, which for years has been erroneously supposed to have been worked out, has just been visited by a special commission- i er of the Auckland "Herald," who suggests great, possibilities if works on a larger scale will be undertaken. ' In other directions also there are signs-of more confidence in' mining, and capital may soon be forthcoming for works on a larger scale.
