Two' 'pounds were weighed but and panned off, aid tested by the dry t process ,by Mr Rosa in. the Sohool of Mines. The result obtained for the twp pounds was *0588gr, or 3dwt 4gr to the, ton. Of course tbefinestf of the gold was lost through the panning-off .' 'There^is great 'probability' of gold at deeper level of, ; this ground along foot of terrace. •• ,t , . " I am, deaf sir, < t ' , , 'f Xourg truly, „ „ '' ' "(Signed) B. A: Young, O.B." - Nos. 1, 2, and 7.— Mr Young's remarks, also apply to these sections ( to a. certain. extent. The vast auriferous deposits of black sand have never yet been, touched by the hand of man for want of suitable appliances, and the extent, quality, and depth, at which these leads can be found is to-day an unknown item in tbe wealth of New, Zealand. They are, it is believed, practically inexhaustible, as ,at Boss black •and, carrying gold, 'is found at a depth of< about" 200tb. This one significant feet id fc<? bo borne In mind, thatbeaoh combers have for years, and, 1 with, the moat primitive appliances worfeed.on the sea frontage in this district, and in some cases have Accumulated fortunes. , J " ' The above land is all supposed to.be auriferous, and suitable for wording by,EVKNDEN'S' GOLD GLEANER.., ' ••'•<• From the preceding. statement of assets, intending investors will be able to see that there is a reasonable prospects of good, profits if a proportion 1 of the gold is saved, while' if the new machine answers the expectations formed from its experimental working, all tbe gold will be saved at a very low cost, in which oaße, the. profits will be very large indeed. , llt is believed the right to manufacture and sell the machine, called " Evbndbn's Gold Clba^tbb," will be a source of large profits to the Company.
