Copper ore find near Northampton gathers attention
A Northampton correspondent reports a new copper ore discovery near the township. The find lies about 600 yards from the railway, along the line, with a sub-division thick and an old Gwalla copper mine nearby. Mr Thomas Scott, owner and prospector, shows a 2 cwt sample from surface, grading around 4 percent copper. The lode is about 31 inches wide with an ore vein slightly over a foot thick, hinting at promising development and a potential steady supply if further work proves fruitful.
