Since we contributed a notice of the remarkable " limurite" rock occurring on the property of the Colebrook Prospecting Association, N.E. Dundas, and more recently discovered to extend in a more or less broken sequence as far north as the Southern bank of the Pieman River, mining operations have been carried on there continuously, and have invested the occurrence with additional interest from that point of view. Renewed examination of the rock under the microscope, as well as in the field, has resulted in further conclusions along the line of our previous enquiries, and these we now submit.
