This company is being formed for the purpose of acquiring and working the North Bnmner Coal Lease of 640 acres, at Greyinouth, New Zealand, which is held from the New Zealand Government and the Midland Railway Company for 30 years under most favourable conditions. The quality of the coal from the district has been proved to be the best for gas manufacture, coke for smelting work, and for patent fuel, in tho Australasian colonies, as shown by the sale of the next colliery to this lease during last year for the sum of £100,000, after working for 20 years, as given in the evidence before tho Coalfields Committee, Wellington, last year (1889). As a marine steam coal the West Coast coal of New Zealand has of late become very famous for its steaming qualities, and there is an unlimited demand for it for both home and coasting steamers. Coke required at Broken Hill.—Statistics : Purine last 12 months there was used at Broken Hill, by five mining companies alone, 1310 tons of coke per week, and it is estimated that the future requirements will be 1740 tons per week, and, according to contracts for one year ending March 31, 1890, the Broken Hill Proprietary used 18,144 tons English coke, costing landed at Port Pirie some £3 7s 8d per ton. German coke used during the same terms at various mines at Broken Hill, 2700 tons at £2 19s 6d per ton: New South Wales coke, 485 tons at £2 13s 6d; Greymouth, Now Zealand coke, 2000 tons at £2 17b 6d per ton. Vide Mr. Sydney Smith's report in a speech delivered lately at Broken Hill. It will thus be seen that an ample market is open for all the coal and coke that the North Brunner Colliery can produce. Applications for shares in this most promising investment will bo received by F. A. WHITE, 83, Queen-street, Auckland, who will give all the information required by investors. Only ONE-HALF THE SHARES are reserved for Australia, the balance being required in New Zealand. *OD *AVE THE **EEN. ADD four letters, form four words. First correct solution, £5.
