DUNEDIN BR0K1R: : • Mr J. B Bradshaw. bankers: Bank of New Zealand. The object of the proposed Company is to work a Mineral Lease of 500 acres, situated at Mount Rangitoto, County of Westlsmd, formerly known as Hudson's Lease, which Lease has since been purchased from the Waste Lands Board by Mr Henry Young. The Lease is known as No. 2, west of the Mount Rangltoto Company's Mine. '■'■'.' The area secured is 500 acres, on which two distinct lodes of ore—one fifteen inches, and the other varying from three to five feet in width outcrop. Mr Arthur, Mining Surveyor, who has recently returned from completing a survey of tho Lease, reports as follows:— "I may state that in addition to lodes formerly reported on, that Mr Palmer, one of the original prospectr.rs of the Mount Rangitoto Silver Mine, who kindly volunteered his assistance in the Survey, discovered a large lode in one of the Creeks running through this Lease, the position of which yon will see on the plan, and marked ' Quartz Reef.' The Reef is from fifteen to eighteen feet in thickness, and bearing east 13 ieg. south, and west 13 Acs. north underlying to the north at an angle of about 80 degrees. This lode is in a direct Hdo with thost now being worked by the Prospectors' Company, and dhows both Galena and Pyrites. Mr Palmer also discovered a (rreat quantity of Ureim tin in two different creeks in the lease, some of the boulders being f romltwo to thre^ hundredweight. I am of opinion that an immense tin lode must also run through the Lease, from the quantity of stream tin in the two creeks." The original Prospectors of the Mount Rangitoto . Company's MinCiilsoreportiisfollowsupon this Lease:— ! "Two lodes of ore bimilar to those in the Mount Rangitoto Company's Mine outcrop in this Lease, one I of fifteen inches—tho other varies from three to five ! feet in thickness." ■ It is proposed toengagefromCaliforniaathoroughly competentand experienced Silver Mining Manager, and ■■ to have the mine developed and worked on sound scientific principle', and with the latest machinery, i As there Is an abundant supply of water and timber in. ' tho immediate vicinity, of the mine, and the Government have now in progress a line of road which will . connect the Mount Rangitoto Mines wMi the main Hokitika ro-d, it is expected that the working of tho mine will be conducted with facility and economy. On transferring the Property to the proposed Company, the promoters will receive 2000 fully paid up £5 shates, and the sum of £1000 in cash. Early application for shares will be necessary, as the promoters confidently expect applications for fully double the number of shares to be allutted. Applications will be received by J. B.
