    Journal of Australasian Mining History, Vol. 18, October 2020 Briseis water supply scheme 1901-1910: a premium investment By KEITH PRESTON Key words: Tin mining, Tasmania, water management, hydraulic sluicing, water rights, aqueducts. t the close of the nineteenth century, mining of deep tin leads along the Ringarooma Valley of north-eastern Tasmania by means of hydraulic sluicing A was well established. In the vicinity of Derby, water supply and tailings disposal were critical factors in achieving viable operations along the Cascade Lead.1 Mines on the south bank of the Ringarooma River competed for available water from the Cascade River, that flowed through the leases of the Briseis Tin Mining Company.2 A limited water supply was also available from Main Creek to the east, but again restricted by competition from mine leases along that watercourse. Reduced summer flows usually curtailed tin production for several months as finance for the construction of storage reservoirs was generally unavailable. Figure 1: Sketch plan of the Cascade Lead showing original lease owners with subsurface features superimposed. Source: The Argus, 29 April 1902, p. 8. 134 Keith Preston On the south bank of the Ringarooma River the privately owned Krushka Brothers mine on Lease 316 dominated tin output prior to 1900, aided by a short headrace from the Cascade River that provided an adequate water supply and a river frontage that facilitated tailings disposal at minimal cost (Fig. 1).3 The adjoining mines operated by Victorian based mining companies, the New Brothers’ Home No. 1 TM Co.

Box 62, HAWKER, 2614 ACT Australia. Phone: +61 2 6254 8689 Fax: +61 2 6278 4672 Email: [email protected] EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Sapphire has been recorded from a number of localities throughout Tasmania however it is only those locations in the north and north east that have sufficient size potential to become attractive for large scale mining exploitation. Sapphire was regularly reported as a component of the tin bearing alluvial gravels in the north east and was often recovered from tin shed concentrates at such operations as the Briseis, Pioneer, and Endurance Mines and from the Dorset dredging operations in the Ringarooma River. Long regarded with little more than passing interest by tin miners sapphire has however become of interest to weekend fossickers and in recognition of that interest Mineral Resources Tasmania have set aside several small fossicking areas throughout the northeast. In 1999, Mineral Holdings Australia (MHAPL) obtained tenure by way of a Special Exploration Licence (SEL) over a vast area of the north east corner of the State. Preliminary exploration indicated that sapphire was widespread throughout both the younger and older Tertiary alluvial deposits. That work was subsequently extended to specific tin resources, Monarch, Endurance, Pioneer, Great Northern Plain and Scotia. Test results indicated that sapphire as a resource base would not be of sufficient grade to “Stand Alone” in economic terms however when recovered along with tin, gold and tantalite it represented a very significant economic component of the recovered mineral train.
