COLLINGWOOD IRON DEPOSITS.
(By Telegraph.) Wellington, Dec 13. Mr Price Williams is greatly impressed with the mineral resources oi the Collingwood district. It is possible he will endeavour to form a company for working the iron deposits, and building rolling mills on the spot. All the ingredients for making steel are found close together m the district, and Mr Williams thinks it quite feasible to supply the colony with steel rails. The coal is of the best quality. The attention of Mr Williams and those backing him was first drawn to the resources of Collingwood by a reference to them m the mines statement and gold 6 elds report.
