- MANGANI MINES Underground development advance for August aggregated 1,048 feet. The shaft has been completed to No. 2 level, or 425 feet below the collar. Ore from development headings, hoisted and stockpiled during August, aggregated 1,040 tons. Machinery for the mill is arriving steadily, but some of the equipment has been delayed beyond the dates promised by the manufacturers. This, coupled with the steady and heavy rains now being experienced at Mangani, is slow ing down the construction work. The rainfall at Mangani averages 256 inches per annum and this year the autumn rains started one month earlier than usual. While every effort is being made to complete erection of the mill as rapidly as possible, it is now indicated that the mill will not be ready until the end of November.
