/ Companies. 'PROSPECTUS OF THE MAOEI j RESERVE GOLD MINING COMPANY, LIMITED. In 4000 Shakes of £1 each. Manager pro. tern. — George Royan. Secretary — George Willis. Banker— New Soutli Wales. Messrs Rees and Tyler. Offices, pro. tern.- At Messrs Recs and Tyler's, Wharf street. / rpHIS Company is formed for the^purpose of working fifty acres of auriferous ground held on a twe'niy-one years' lease from the Maori Commissioner. This ground is situated at Woodstock, opposite to the Kanieri, arfft is in a direct line with the efelebrated Golden Lead, running from the Waimea through the Three Mile, Tucker Flat, and the Kanieri. From four or five claims — immediately adjoining the fifty acres belonging to the Company, and altogether containing less than half an acre — between two and three thousand ounces of gold have been taken during the last nine months. . The shareholders in one of these claims washed, in a cradle, for a single day's work, three pounds weight of gold, which ran about seven ounces to the load : the place from which this was taken is not more than fifty yards distant from the Company's ground." The lead runs direct through the leasehold of the Company for a distance of upwards of seven hundred yards. The lease [ will be purchased by the Company at the price of L2OOO, which will be taken in 2000 paid-up shares. The capital of the Company will be L4OOO, in 4000 shares of Ll each, to. be paid as follows : — 2s 6d on application, 2s 6d on allotment, and calls of 2s 6d at intervals of at least a month. I As the ground can \be worked at a, cost — - ! for machinery, &c. — of less than, LSOOO, j the promoters think that the 2000 shares [ which will be thrown into the market will I provide ample means for. the successful \ commencement of the undertaking. I Every possible convenience is on the spot — fine timber in millions of feet, a % good fall to the Hokitika River, and 'water power, with a fall of sixty ~or seventy feet", are at once 'available. It is probable that w.ork will be commenced, and a' dividend declared, within a month from the time that the open shares are taken up. The present working — although s,o rich-r-is merely upon a false bottom ; the real bottom, where found, has, all along the lead, yielded much better returns .than the layers above it. *■ .
