In one of the galleries of the Oscar gold mine, on the Boramel Island, on the west coast of Norway, a block of auriferous quartz was recently broken out, the value of which is estimated at about £70,000. The depoß.it here has now been worked for ab,out a year and a half, and the working has, according to the reports of the owners, already returned the turn invested. The work is pushed on with all despatch, as it has been found that the quartz increased in gold downward.
