Report on bauxite, near Rosevale, county Devon, Tasmania

Five occurrences of ferruginous bauxite near Rosevale were examined and two of them (Nos. 3 and 4) mapped in detail on a scale of 100 feet to 1 inch. It was felt that Areas 3 and 4 which offered some slight chance of successful development should not be abandoned until a few test-pits had been sunk to confirm or disprove the conclusions reached from the surface inspection. Descriptions of the general geology, individual bauxite occurrences, and testing results are given in this report. A locality plan is included.
