Hazledine And Goldie

Hazledine And Goldie (John Miller Hazledine and Thomas Francis Goldie), Coal Pit Proprietors, Muddy Creek Pit, Waikaia. This mine is worked on a section of fifty-four acres of land at Muddy Creek, and the seam in hand is about fifteen feet in thickness. Considerable quantities of coal are delivered to the local dredges, and the demand is steadily increasing. In addition to lignite, the firm has discovered a material which has been tested for shale oil, of which it contains a considerable percentage.
