A new feature has been introduced by the equipment of an ore-testinglaboratory, where tests on ore can be made .showing their amenability to con-centration, cyanidation, or amalgamation treatment. Already this phase of thework has been utilized by a number of companies in the district, and enquiriesare now being received from outside mining camps.
