Gold-Copper Mines Rise in Slattery's Creek District
Mining notes highlight Slattery's Creek near Millthorpe as a growing center with the Calvert copper mine yielding good returns. A four foot rich lode carries copper and gold valued at about 220 Het per ton on the surface, while nearby W Ovington has found a promising sulphide lode for gold and copper. J V Vale has acquired seven eights of Ovington’s mine for Bulga and Calvert Copper Mining Companies, and Mrs Jo Mills has floated another prospect in the area. Surface lodes promise gold mining though sulphide zones at water level render ore refractory in some cases, as seen at the Calvert mine historically.
