Tennant Creek reports a nugget with over 16 ounces of gold leading to a government proclamation creating a broad aluvial field 45 miles northwest of Tennant Creek township. It allows holders of miner's rights to peg 100 feet square areas and work them with minimal formalities. Prior to the proclamation, the warden registered blocks of 40 and 20 acres under reef provisions, while a Melbourne syndicate obtained a one mile square special prospecting license. Indications suggest moderate cattle offerings at Homebush yards as week ends.
