Hi Folks

Not sure if these have been posted here before.

The 1906 NZ Mining Handbook (On Line)

http://www.archive.org/s...alvgoog#page/n5/mode/2up

The First Gold Discoveries in New Zealand 1906 ( A Real good Read)

http://archive.org/strea...ouggoog#page/n1/mode/2up

Seeing its winter. And to cold now to get out. After reading those.

Just go to www.archives.org

In search just type Gold Mining, a lot of reading there. Mostly US and Australian stuff, but oh so much history.
Assaying is well worth a look to.

When you get the book open, use the arrows and magnifier at the bottom right of the page.

Have fun.

Cheers Trev aka " The Hatter "
