9a. slight trace of gold in mineral belts(6)
I,ve got -g-o-e. If the rest of my answers are right.
last clue to solve HELP.

IGNORE

trace of Gold in IN + ORE

"belts" would have to indicate the containment - not seen this before

mineral belt is ore

I don't think it is jazzy - the closest you could get is ore "seam".

...and otherwise, where does it tell you to put the G inside IN?

Would the slight= ignore?

Yes, if you slight someone, you ignore them

Yes - as a verb (to slight)

Just going to put ignore in. In my mind I've now finished.
Thanks all.

I was trying to do two chats at once (had BT on another computer trying to sort my latest bill !). sorry, ChrisE. I had a quick peek on another forum and they have 3 different parsings for this one, but yours seems good.
