Five years ago the average amt
OF gold per ton from the mines of
the Transvaol was twenty-five pen
ny-weights. or above an ounce. To-
day this average is not more than
seven or eight pennyweights, or 81
or So in the ton, and still the mines
are worked to enormous profit.
Probably nowhere else has mining
been reduced to so fine an art; no.
where else are such wonderful ma
