" '' - It is proposed to work the ground with a steam dredge with all the latest improvements, including an elevator for stacking tailings. It is estimated that coal can be delivered on the claim at about Ids 6i per ton. The Galatea, Clyde, apd Kearsage snoou dredges worked on the claim in the early days, and as bearing upon the character of the ground the following extracts from the Dunstan Times arc of interest :— June 6, 180^.— "The amounts netted by the Clyde, "-Alabama, 'and Galatea dredges during the past week completely put into the Khadc all previous yields. . The shareholders of one of ttie boats, after paying expenses, pocketed over £100 per man ; and the others, we hear, w«re equally j fortunate." j February "24, IS7I- — " The dredges at Mutton Town Point appear to be doing fairly well —the Galatfa doing exceptionally well, . her last week's rei urn being 107oz." March 10, 1871.— "The dredges at Mutton Town Poinf have this week done very well, those securing the largest quantity of the precious metal being the Galatea and Kearsage." • It is well known that Ihe primitive spoon dredge's could only win gold under the most favourable conditions'. A modern. steam dredge, of sufficient size and power should secure payable returns from even the worked portions of such ground as is above described. /Dividends will be paid per share, irrespective of thft amount paid up. Over 17C0 contributing shares have already been bespoken by shareholders of the Clyde Dredging . Company.
