TAIRUA.
OHUI. Some excellent assay returns have been obtained from ore from this mine. One lot of about 61b of stone was sent to the Thames School of Mines, and the result to hand shows a value of £l7 4s 6d por ton. Mr Galbraith also tested two samples, one of which gave £5 5s 9d, and the other £24 19s 9rl per ton. Some time ago eight tons were sent to the Cambria battery, the yield being £47 15s for the eight tons.
