Extract
In the early part of this year Mr. W Goodlet, laboratory assistant to Prof. Black, of the Dunedin University, submitted to me for examination a mineral specimen which he had brought from a journey of inspection of the gold fields of the West Coast, Middle Island. It had, so he told me, been broken from a boulder, about 40 lbs. in weight, which was found in the gold drift of a claim at Back Creek near Rimu, Westland, and placed aside by the claim owners as something uncommon, because of its weight and colour.
