On page 259 I have already alluded to the occurrence of argentiferous galena on Mount Rangitoto, and I may now add that specimens of galena have also been collected near Jackson's Bay, and some localities between the Hokitika and the Haast rivers. However, the information obtained with the small specimens submitted to me by prospectors has been of such a vague nature, that I can only state the fact of its occurrence without being able to give any information about the position or nature of the lodes.
