In [[1866]]/1, he split off from the group and lived in France for a time, before returning to Japan the following year ([[1867]]). There, he became the head of the silver mines in Shôno, [[Hyogo prefecture|Hyôgo prefecture]], and is said to have played a significant role in the [[Meiji period]] development of mining in Japan.
