Onow's Nest Mine Taken Over by Brilliant Co
The Onow's Nest mine changed hands last Monday when the mine was acquired by the Brilliant WM Co. The deal, pending for some time, secures a property considered one of the best in the district outside the Golden Mile. The retiring owners left the mine at 280 ft with about £70,000 in gold extracted. The reef, long and wide, is valued at £4 per ton and the works include a 9-head battery, cyanide, air compressor, rock drills, and pumping plant. New directors will be appointed at a June meeting to push development, aided by a government loan prospect.
