The Friday Reef. 
About i mile northward from the Homeward Bound Reef, Rocky Point, 
some shafts have been sunk on the Friday reef and it has been stoped from 
the surface to* a depth of 30 or 40 feet. The soil along the reef course is 
red and the country rock is slate and sandstone similar to that at the Home¬ 
ward Bound reef, Rocky Point. The strike of the country rock is N. 
10 deg. W., dip 70 deg. W. The reef which consists of 3 inches of 
laminated quartz conforms to the country in dip and strike and has well 
defined walls. This line of reef is said to be traceable for 3 miles. The 
Homeward Bound reef, Twist’s Creek, and the Little Tunnel reef in same 
locality are said to* be on the same channel. 
The Birthday and Danish Reef, Twist’s Creek. 
About a quarter of a mile south-easterly from the small battery 
furthest up Twist’s Creek, the Birthday and Danish reef has been 
worked over the top of a hill for several hundred feet in length. The soil 
is red and the country rocks are slates and sandstones (Ordovician) of 
yellowish colour which strike N. 10 deg. W. and are about vertical. 
The quartz reef is about 8 inches thick and conforms to the bedding of the 
country, and the quartz is said to* have yielded 2 : | ozs. of gold per ton. 
This reef has not been worked below water-level.
