Carrick Range.

These samples from Carrick were forwarded by Mr. Buchan, and were found to contain 50 to 54 per cent. of antimony. The ore of this quality is too far in the interior of the country to be exported profitably. With good fuel, however, it might be freed from the earthy matters with which it is associated, and then conveyed to Dunedin for transmission to Melbourne, where there are, I believe, large works for the reduction of this ore (stibnite) to the metallic state.
