THE TREATMENT OF THAMES ORES.
AN AMERICAN EXPERT CABLED FOR. Those interested in the speedy development of our mineral wealth in the Coromandel peninsula, will be pleased to learn that the Mount Aroha Gold and Silver Mining Company have, in conjunction with the Broken Hill Proprietory Company in Australia, cabled to America for the best scientific skill to be obtained there for tho treatment of silver and refractory ores. Iu response to this message Mr. Howell, the patentee of the White aud Howell Revolving Roaster, has himself agreed to come to the colonies on a brief visit, and will leave San Francisco either by the May or June mail boat. Mr. Howell bears a very high reputation in America, and upon his arrival here will be met by some of the Melbourne directors of the Mount Aroha Company, and taken up to our goldfields for consultation. After visiting the Thames, he will proceed to the Broken Hill district, and see the reefs and locality for himself in Australia. Mr. Howell will in all probability settle the question, for the Mount Aroha Company at all events, as to the process or processes to be used in the treatment of the stone from the mines now owned by the company. His advent will be awaited with a good deal of interest in mining circles.
