Table 1

Table 1.

Chrome ore exports from New Zealand (Mines Handbook 1887) The bulk of the ore would be from Wooded Peak but includes an unknown but probably significant quantity from elsewhere in Nelson such as the Hacket Stream and the Serpentine River. The table also excludes trial shipments sent in the late 1850s.
