The Myall and Peak Hill company earned a profit of £281 in four weeks from a lode yielding 19dwt per ton. The note suggests encouragement for mines with large low grade formations from 3dwt to 7dwt per ton in Orange, Parkes, and Forbes districts. Improved cyaniding and management may soon turn these formations into profitable gold producers.
