Mr Arthur, Mil ing Surveyor, who has recently returned from completing a survey of the Lease,,reports < as follows:— " I may state that in a<Jditi"n to lodo3 formerly- reported on, that Mr Palmer, one uf. tho original prospectors of the Mount Rangitoto Silver Mine, who ; kindly volunteered his assistance inrthe Survey, discovered a large lode in one of.the .Cieeks^running; • through this tease, the position of which you will see :on the plan, and marked ' Quartz.. Reef.'1 "The Reef is* : from fifteen to eighteen feet in thickrlesa, and bearing, least 13 dejr. south, and west 13 de^..north underlying.' 'to the north at an angle of about 89 degrees.. This lode, i is in a direct line with those now being worked by the-. PnMpectors' Company, and i shows both Galena and ' Pyrites. Mr Palmer also discovered a great'quantity of stre \m tin in two different creeks in the lease, somei of the boulders being f romjtwo to three hundredweight.. I am of opinion thatan immense tin lode must also run through the Lease, from the quantity of stream tin in the two creeks."

"Two lodes of ore similar to those in the Mount : Rangitoto Company's Mine outcrop in this Lease, oneof fifteen inches—the other varies fromithree to five ' feet in thickness."
