EXTRACT FROM CAPTAIN HUTTON’S REPORT ON THE GEOLOGY OF THE LOWER WAIKATO.

    • The appearance of this coal (from the mine at Kupakupa) is much like Cannel Coal, having a lustrous pitch black colour, with brown films in places. It does not soil the fingers. Its fracture is conchoidal, shining and hard, and it does not fall to pieces easily. Both the streak and powder are black and glistening. It is easily ignited, and burns with a bright clear flame. It is burnt with much satisfaction on board all the steamers plying on the Waikato, and I am of opinion that it will be found equal if not superior to any of the hydrous coals of New Zealand. The coal can be got without pumping or the use of any mechanical means for raising it to the surface.
