Kuranui.—The contractors have gone 23ft. past the reef, leaving a further Bft, to drive to completo their contract, which will be accomplished in a few days. I think a further distance of 30ft., or 40ft. would be a good 'hing to drive in the crosscut, as I believe another reef is not far away. No work has been done on the reef since intersecting it, and it is now ready for development.
