Another partial analysis carried out by Mr. Blytli for Mr. Datta 
iu 1894 yielded : —

This deposit must contain a large quantity ot high grade ore. It is 
4 miles from Ramakona, which is 28 miles from Chhiiidwara. 
The inconstant maimer in which the good ore occurs in these hillocks' 
The working of the as in many of others of the deposits of the Central 
Provinces, makes it a matter of impossibility to 
give even a bare approximation to the amount of ore available. 
The outcrop evidence was, however, sufficient to justify extensive 
work at this deposit, and such work as had been carried out to the 
end of 1907 confirmed the evidence of the outcrops as to the presence 
of large quantities of merchantable ore. The ore is carted direct 
from the deposit to Amla, 3 miles north of Ramakona and thence to 
Chhindwara, a total distance of about 28 miles. 
The output of ore from this deposit during 1906 
" ■ and 1907 was as follows : —
