MINE MANAGERS' REPORTS.
Te Pake Gold Reefs.—We have driven 41 feet for the week and have cut another leader. I" believe the Bft lode passed through is the No. 1 lode. I will drive along the footwall to prove it. Young New Zealand.—Manager reports that the main winze in the uppei level is now clear of water, and he considers the reef should soon be to hand in the low level. The quartz is being sent down for treatment, one ton being forwarded to the Thames School of Mines, and 8£ tons to Auckland to be treated at Messrs Fraser and Son's plant. lona Gold and Silver Mining Company (Great Barrier).—The crosscut going east has been extended a further distance of 12 feet for the past week and timbered. From the appearance of the present face expect shooting ground to come in very shortly.
