The Nelson Colonist learns that the proSpefdfcbrs who have been at work for the past five weeks ori the ground at Wangapeka lately taken up by Mr R. MoßrtOj havo obtained highly satisfactory results. Some 10 or 11 drives wore put in, each from GO to 70 foot, and in nine of those good payable gold Was found. In some cases the prospects wore better than from the Bello mine, which bao bdoii worked by Mr Mcßae for sonic time now. The area, tested reaches from the Bello rhino to the junction of the Waiigapeka arid Sherry streams, a distance cf foiir milch,, and it is proved that.gold exists all the way, the richest portion being about two and a half miles from the Belle. The gold is of the same quality throughout. The precious metal has also been found on the terraces facing the Wangapeka. The result of the prospectors’ work is so encouraging that work on a largo scale may bo anticipated at no distant date. There will be a Wash-up at the Bello this week.
