p. 11 · Read in the full issue
DR. LOFTUS HILLS arrived in Suva by the April “Monterey” and was received by Mr. Pat Costello, well known mining man. It is suggested that he is visiting Fiji on behalf of the Theo dore mining group to inspect the gold find near Tavua, on the north coast of Viti Levu—where many “colours” and some fair gold have been found.
Fiji’s biggest find has been on Vanua Levu. Dr. Woolnough, geological ad viser to the Commonwealth Government of Australia, said when passing through Fiji, that he did not think Fiji was old enough to produce any substantial find of gold.
