On Saturday, 20th September, we visited the Chemistry Department, Crawley, Western Australia, and saw the experimental plant erected for the treatment of Lake Campion alunite. The process was discussed with Professor Bayliss and Mr. H. Bowley, Government Mineralogist and Assayer. On the morning of Monday, 22nd September, we met the Minister for Mines, State Officials and Messrs. F.B. Norwood and L. Gibbons at the Mines Department, Perth. At this meeting the Whim Creek and Ravensthorpe (Phillips River) copper areas were discussed. On the afternoon of the 22nd we met the Aluminium Panel at the Department of Industry and discussed the Lake Campion proposals. On Tuesday 23rd, lateritic bauxites were examined as several localities on the Darling Range and at Toodyay. Following is a review of the matters discussed in Western Australia.
