Stream tin has been worked in the neighborhood of Ovens, Victoria, for many 

 years in conjunction with gold, also near Alban}'. Deposits liglit, would scarcely 

 pay if not accompanied by gold. Stream tin has been found in creeks and rivers 

 in Gippsland. Country is unexplored as yet, cannot predict as to lodes. In the 

 Inverel district of New South Wales, considerable deposits of tin have been 

 worked with varying success. In Queensland, at Stanthorpe, is the largest and 

 most promising deposit of tin. Chief deposit of Tasmania is at Mount Bischoff, 

 35 miles from Emu Bay, on northwest coast, a mountain 3000 feet above sea 

 level, evidently of volcanic origin, surface stone is composed of decayed g^ranite, 

 porphyry, and quartzose rock, through which tin is disseminated. Wash dirt 

 varies from 3 to 40 feet deep. No overburden beyond a foot or two. Purely lode 

 tin. Probably deposited by some volcanic action. Near the mountain pieces of 

 lode weighing from 1 pound to 1% cwt. are found; not water worn, and very 

 pure. Assays from 70 to 73 per cent.
