MANAGERS' REPORTS
PUKIRI. The manager reports :—" Since my last report we have extended the low level cros^ut a further disfance of five f eet,thus making the total distance dri' en 189 feet, and .yesterday we intersected a lode of quartz averaging about 6 inches in thickness, and judging from the co one it is bearing I am of opinion that it is the No. 2 lode. fl he quartz is of a kind'y description, and a few colors of gold were seen. The country in which the. lode is encased is of a favorable class of sandstone, though of a tight nature for making headway. No. 4 'eader: This drive has been advanced a further distance of 10 feet, thus making the total distance on this lead 52 fee&. The size of the lead is about 3 inches in thickness and the country through which the leader traverses is of a favorable description.— John Sullivan."
