Review of activity at the Enterprise Mine on Mt Owen. 3 adits were driven, and a battery installed, but gold recovered was lower (2 dwt) than expected (6-10dwt). A brief plan for re-examination was discussed, but further investigation was regarded as secondary to exploitation of the Mt Owen Silver Lead lodes.
