Item description from seller

Folio (13 x 8 inches). Printed on blue paper. Modern brown leatherette. A report outlining the expenditure of an agreed 30,000 pound budget for prospecting for New Gold Fields in Victoria, particularly in the district of Gipps Land and the Great Dividing Range; the Basin of the River Yarra; the country north and north-east of Korong; the sources of the Mitta-Mitta, Little River, Sandy Creek, and the sources of the creeks north and east of the Benambra Mountains, in the mining district of Beechworth. The report includes appendices which list the leaders of the prospecting teams at all these sites, with details of their place of birth and previous occupations. Not surprisingly only one was born 'locally', in Tasmania.
