said about 100 ozs. ef gold a month were obtained by the owners of the battery at the time from recrushing and washing the tailings, One working not far from the battery yielded 10 ozs. of gold to the ton, and £700 worth of gold was taken out of a hole a few feet deep just below
the dam.
It is seen by examining the old workings which still exist that they were mined by men unaccustomed to cope with quarte mining difficulties. The work is of the crudest description and it is evident that as soon as water was reached in suficient quantity to require machinery, or because the earth began to fall ia or become dangerous through being untimbered, the mines were abandoned. This part of the district was, "morcover, at the time infested by desperate bands of bushrangers who rendered residence there very undesirable. "It was a long time before the Government was able to hunt them down, owing to the nature of the country.
Undoubtedly large deposits of gold, and probably exceptionally rich deposits, will be found when these reefs, which proved so good on the surface, are worked to a depth by quartz mining experts under honest and experienced management, backed by auflicient capital. The ground is already prospected it is well known where the gold has been got ucar the surface, and it is only necessary to sink, properly timbered shafts and get below these old workings and work up. Some of these. shafts will require pumping gear,
As far as I know, it has never been heard of that quartz reefs rich in gold near the surface failed to yield good results at a greater depth. Such reefs have been profitably worked on Bendigo and other places to a depth of close un 3,000 feet, and are still at workt after 40 years. Given sufficient capital econondcally administered or expended, as it would be in any other business expected to pay, I am of opinion that better results will be obtained from the working of Oliver's Freehold
feated in London and elsewhere.

together on Tuesday, July, and arrived at Mount McDonald on the day following, and commenced our inspection the same after-
noon.
The Freehold consists of 100 acres of auriferous land in the form of a direet}
square, each side of which measures 2087' 67, or 695 yards, 2 feet & inches.
The position is to the West of the Euraka Gold Mine, and extends at right angles from its own Eastern Boundary in a Westerly direction, across a crack or water course to the opposite range of hills, on the Northera slope of which the greater part of its area lica. The water course; which-runs through the Freehold divides two ranges of nuciferous bills, and finally empties itself into the River Lachlan, about three miles to the South of the dam of the reservoir which supplies the battery belonging to the property, situated at Mount McDonald in the district of Carcour in the province of Bathurst, New South Wales. The battery itself is to the West of the reservoir, and consequently on the Western side of the creek near the Southern boundary of the property, and its site was selected with excellent judgment, as quartz can be carted to it or trollied to it not only from all parts of the Freehold itself but from all the workings in the neighbourlcod at little cost. The Machine bouse, moreover, being close to its water supply, involves no waste of power in feeding the boilers,
The water supply consists of a reservoir formed by a dam across the creek, and is fed by a watershed of considerable extent embraced by the surrounding bills, and I was informed by men who had been working on the ground for years that the supply never failed in the driest sea- son, from which I inferred that the rainfall is supplemented by subsoil drainage and springs. For fuel there is abundance of good timber in the vicinity,
consists of several Gold Mining
on the North and the Great Eastern Mine on the South. It will be seen by reference to the map that to the South of the Great Eastern Mine three lots lying on either side of the creek which runs through the Freehold and discharges itself into the Lachlan River have been secured thus giving to the Company a magnificent water supply, The new shaft of the Eureks has been sunk to a depth of 85 feet. The old workings before the miners were flooded out yielded to a depth of 140 feet not less than 1 oz. of Gold per ton with occasional butter results. This is recorded in the Government Reports.
It is in this mine that the Company's operations will commence by deepen
ing the new shaft. by about 120 feet. This shaft has been properly timbered as far as it goes and is surmounted by poppet heads in the vicinity of which is a tathine huase with necessary winding and pumping gear for freeing the mine from water. All were in good order and fit to commence work when inspected.
The further sinking of the shaft is not through difficult ground and the cost of labour and properly timbering will be only about £5 per foot. When despened sufficient tunnols will be driven to the North and South and the reef will be worked upwards which is the most economi- cal plan, The amount of water to be dealt with of course increases the cost of mining and renders it impossible for ordinary working miners to develop such properties on their own account but it is not disadvantageous for those Iraving means in a country subject to drought.
One of the drawbacks to the development of mining in the district has been The Machinery we found to be of the best description and comprises a first that there was no proper accommodation for miners of the better class with class engine and two good boilers, There are 4 batteries of 5 head of their wives and families and it is proposed to build & few comfortable cottages stamps, capable of crushing about 20 tons a day in all, as well as to induce this class of men to settle on the property. pana, shaking tables, and all necessary machinery for extracting from the ore the greatest amount of gold it will pay to take out, The inspection of the rest of the Freehold was greatly facilitated by the whole of the scrub having been cut down before we arrived, so the estate was laid bare and could be viewed from a convenient spot on the hill from end to end.
A party of Tributors, at work on the Freehold not far from the battery, was raising ore which yielded over 3 ozs. to the ton at each crushing. The men informed me that they discovered the reef on the surface in walk. ing over the hill after rain, by observing gold in quartz at the bottom of e cart rat which had been washed clean by the water flowing through it.
The operations of the Company will at first be limited to deepening the Eureka new shaft and driving tunnels through the reef. It is confidently. anticipated that this mine being taken over in a working condition will pay expenses from an early date and within a short time win good results. A map of the mines is attached and also a map of New South Wales showing Railways and the direction of the Reefs running through the property with the position marked of some of the principal mines.
The old workings are of the most primitive description having evidently bean made by alluvial miners unaccustomed to quartz The reefs were worked from the surface down without timbering, until it became dangerous to go deeper. None of these workings were any depth, and the numerous heavy finds of gold were all found near the surface. That much of the quartz'must have been very rich is certain, for it is 62
