Mindoolah Gold Reef Prospects At Mindoolah Field

The Water Supply Department cleaned the well and reports splendid water. Smith and party at the north end have tapped a reef carrying fair gold. Reefs show maintained or improved values at depth while the battery value of the stone nears release. Spencer's battery processed about 130 tons of surface stone. Public crushing begins this week with Shields and party readying 70 to 80 tons on the Mindoolah Queen. About 700 tons remain on the field awaiting treatment. Messie, Pearse and McCann sink a vertical shaft to water level to reach Excelsior reef. A 13 ton parcel at Island Pareka, Lake Austin, yielded 66074 in return. The mine is reported to be well with patchy but regular reefs.
