It is estimated that for every mile
in length along the course of ihs
reefs, down to a vortical depth of
i,ooo feet for the dip of these reefs,
gold to the value of about $50,000,-
000 will be extracted. This is a
conservative estimate at least as ap-
plied to the central mcMoit of the
Rand, tf we assume these condi-
tions to obtain to a depth of flooo
feet vertically, we have the enor-
mous sum of Ijoojjoo.ooo for each
mile in length. It is not unreasona-
ble to suppose that these conditions
will be maintained along most of
the central section, say for a dis-
tance of tan miles, hi which case
we would have an twiferona area,
within practicable mining depths,
containing upward of Ij/wogoory
