One successful system has been adopted at the Ross Company’s mines, Jones’ creek, west coast, (Middle Island), New Zealand. The town * of Rosa has been since 1865 the centre of various diggings. Gold was first found in the bed of the creek, and was soon followed to the gullies, terraces and flats adjacent. From the upper portion of the flat, good returns were obtained, but water effectually preyented the lower portions being worked. A company was formed to drain the flat, but they gave up after awhile and the claims .were abandoned, . though there was much rich ground. The ground is now being worked by the Ross company. This company has bought out all the private claims on Ross flat, so that it now holds the whole of. the ground where the rich leads of gold have hitherto been found, comprising an area of about 200 acres. In order to drain as much of the ground as possible, a tail race was cut from the sea beach, which is about 90 feet above the level of the original surface, of the ground on -the flat. After completing this tail race,the company commenced sinking a shaft on the terrace, in order to avoid what was then considered the wet ground, their object being, when the _ shaft was down sufficiently deep, to drive out into the flat and work,the deep levels, as it was found, when the deep ground was formerly worked, that there was scarcely any -water below 160 feet.

One successful system has been adopted at the Ross Company’s mines, Jones’ creek, west coast, (Middle Island), New Zealand. The town * of Rosa has been since 1865 the centre of various diggings. Gold was first found in the bed of the creek, and was soon followed to the gullies, terraces and flats adjacent. From the upper portion of the flat, good returns were obtained, but water effectually preyented the lower portions being worked. A company was formed to drain the flat, but they gave up after awhile and the claims .were abandoned, . though there was much rich ground. The ground is now being worked by the Ross company. This company has bought out all the private claims on Ross flat, so that it now holds the whole of. the ground where the rich leads of gold have hitherto been found, comprising an area of about 200 acres. In order to drain as much of the ground as possible, a tail race was cut from the sea beach, which is about 90 feet above the level of the original surface, of the ground on -the flat. After completing this tail race,the company commenced sinking a shaft on the terrace, in order to avoid what was then considered the wet ground, their object being, when the _ shaft was down sufficiently deep, to drive out into the flat and work,the deep levels, as it was found, when the deep ground was formerly worked, that there was scarcely any -water below 160 feet.
