FOR the information of his Honor the Superintendent A Otago, reply to his Memo, of the 4th instant. J. W. BLACKETT. Geological Survey Office, Wellington, 12th August, 1876. NEW ZEALAND GEOLOGICAL SURVEY, LABORATORY. Result of Analysis of Specimen No. 1829, forwarded to his Honor the Superintendent of Otago from West Coast of South Island, on the Vtli August, 187 G. GUANO. Tins Guano contained 36.98 per esnt. of water as received by me, but when exposed freely to he air for three days as a coarse powder it lost nearly 20 per cent of this, the exact amount of water remaining in it after such treatment being 17.58 per cent. The following are the results afforded by its analysis : Phosphoric acid 23.80 per cent. Soluble phosphates, traces. This Guauo is therefore eminently a phosphatic one, and after exposure to the air under cover for some time would somewhat resemble that occurring upon Coral Island (see .Jurors’ Report, No. 3, Exhibition, 1865, page 423), and should serve tho same purposes as those to which it Ims been applied.
