MINING NEWS.

(From the "CoRoMANDEtMAir,,")1 The crushing of a parcel of three tona ftenernl stuff for the Queen of the North turned out exceedingly well, considering that the specimens had been previously picked out. The thtee tons treated. lia s yielded 51 ounces retorted gold, xhe opecimens referred to were IGOlbs, weight which, it will lie remembered gave the handsome return of 112ozs. The three tons and specimens have thus given a "rand total of 1630za., or 32 ozs. to the ton." One of the most important items of news is the resumption of operations in the Bismarck mine. The plucky shareholders have paid another call of 25., and, with a view to tr? the efficacy of a change in the method of working the ground, the directors have appointed a new manager, Mr Gribble from the Thames, who is well known for his success in the past. It is to be hoped that he will drop on a rich patch while pros pecting in a new section of the ground, and increase his fame by turning out lots of gold. This company has set a worthy example to others in the way of working ground year nf ter year and paying heavy calls without any return from the mine, The shareholders rkhly deserve that amount of success which has so long been hoped for, and which we trust is about to be realised. At last advices there was no particular change in the|Tokatcn; The rise from the intermediate had not connected with the winze from the Van level, but it will not Ijg long before this important work is completed, after which stoping opcia. tions will commence |and the battery \yill be started. In the Gem level a permanent tramway is now being laid, and as the level is going along the same line of reef as the Bismarck and Tokatea good results should follow. The New Union Beach company has made a vigorous start, and will infuse fresh vigour into operations on the beach, The method of working this mine is approved % those who have had experience_ with tha Tangye pumps in simiiiar workings as the latter will now be tried in. This is.the first enterprise of the kind on this gold field, and we trust that the old Union Beach run of gold will be picked up, and that this mine will again pay handsome dividends, as there is good reason to believe it will

New Union Beach Mine.—The new company has been successfully floated in Auckland. TVie 'wYio'Ye ot tiie dunes were allotted at the last meeting of the directors held in Auckland on Thursday, The vi. rectors have lost no time in making arrange, ments to start work in the renowned Union Beach ground. In response to the adver tisement for a mine manager, about half a score applications were received, and after due consideration Mr A. W. Carew was appointed to the office. Mr. Carew is ex. pected to arrive from tbe West Coast early next week and will proceed at once to fuU fil lih duties. The Tangye pump has ar rived from Auckland, and the directors are confident it will fully answer the expec tations formed of its capabilities. It is the intention of the present Board of Directors to give the mine a thorough prospecting. Success. — The manager reports:—l have started the crosscut, on No. 2 level that I made mention of in my last report. The ground is good working, and1 in about a fortnight the reef will he in hand, in which I am looking forward to getting something good on the surface. At this point, which I am driving [for, there are good prospects of fine heavy gold, This reef improves aa driven on south, and is getting more parallel with the main one, with underlay to the wesi, and lias the appcaraoce ot running the whole length of the mine. Low level—The "ground is about the same as date of last report, There is about twelve feet to drive to cut the reef including the underlay. The ground is getting more like to what was in the other level before the reef was cut. The distance driven in the level under contract is 355 feet, hut not finished. From the present face there is 12 feet to drive on the reef, including the underlay, and 10 feet more to the perpendicular of the level above. The quantity of gold in the Bank is 42 ounces, and about one ounce on hand.: There is about six tons in the paddock worth crushing.

Blue Peter.—The manager reports'— Bottom Level West,—l have started to drive west of winze to pick up a run of gold supposed to be a short distance ahead.- The leader in this drive is small but ap« pears to be making larger aa driven on. In taking the leader down to-day a few picked stones came to hand, good looking couniry, with seams of mundio favourable for a patch of gold. Bottom Level Stppe. —Con- tinued this slope and have obtained a few picked stone. Leader maintains its size i and appearance. Have on hand about twelve pounds of picked stone. ~ % Queen of the North.—The crushing of three tons has given the customary rich: return, 51ozs having been obtained from the, general stuff. The specimens, amounting to 1601bs weight, had previously been picked; out and gave 112ozs. The leading stope is being carried alcng with fair prospecte. . ■■; Ada.—The face of the low level is being carried in towards the boundary of the; Queen of the North. A distance of about 15ft has yet to be driven. Stanley.—Since starting work again,, richer crushing stuff has been coming to hand from the stopes than was pre viously got from the level.

THE TIKI.

Things have been quiet for some time, but: the little battery lias since its erection/ turned out a lot of gold. It has not been able to keep space with the requirement of; Blackmore's, but has nevertheless proved' that both this mine and the Home Rule have payable reefs. The former mine, though suffering to sonle extent from inju dicious expenditure, is now in a splendid' position for being very economically ■worked, and a large block of auriferous' ground, is about to be stoped out, which; may give Tiki fresh life. Stodart's.—Work was started again on1 Tuesday week on the Government portion" of the mine. The manager reports that a1 fine looking reef has been discovered in: splendid country for gold, but itjwill take! some days to thorovghly prove it. ';? Home Rule.—Excellent stone has i'e cently been taken from the stopes. The crushing was not completed in time for this report, but there was reported to be a fair show of amalgam. MATAWAi.-The dead work involved in the construction of winter quarters is now)' at an end, and the proprietors are now, turning their attention to the further de velopment of their reef. We hope to be. able to_ report good news before long; though it will take a few weeks at least t*j get well into the ground. Terminus.—The main level is being carried ahead with promising indications.
