This Company has been formed for the purpose of working the claims hitherto known as the Cassius, Kohinoor, Morning Star, Scandinavian, Excelsior, and Golden Gate Claims, situate in Joneses ana" Guardian Flats, Totara District! The property of the Company consists of the above well-known Claims, which together comprise an area of 40 acres, through the entire length of which very rich leads, of .gold have been, proved to exist. In addition to this* the Company, possesses five Steam- Engines, aggregating 130-horse power; together with pumps, winding gear, and all necessary 'appliances for large and extensive mining operations. ' It is proposed t6 purchase from the present proprietors the 'claims which are held uhd^r lease from tn!e prqwn, for nfli&nj.ears^lpgether \y#h 'plant, for the \ sum .of £10,330, which $hey.ha.ye agr^ed to take in paid-up, shares ; thus* leaving £5680. to be subscribed for by the public. . These shares are ©proposed to be issued at par, and the capital thus raised will be devoted to the purchase of the powerful plant of the Drainage Company, .and to effect the necessary alterations and drainage appliances, eb that-the whole can be worked on a more economical basis. The very unsatisfactory manner in which the drainage of Jones' Flat has hitherto been effected has in a measure compelled the larger claims to unite for their own protection, and the large saving which will ensue from the concentration of the workings under 035 management, induce the directors to place ttiis Company before the public with the greatest confidence that. the. undertaking will prove a good investment to the shareholders/.' The past workings, pf four, ofj the claims (Cassius; Morning Sta,^ 1 ..^^cefiipr, ajs Scandinavian )i have given the extraordinary yield of nearly £130,066 Worth of gojfl, and the, ground in the Kohinoor is almost untouched! ' '" '..' The Company has.u]jds: offer $he po.^rful plant hitherto employed in draininjg Jones's F,lat foj?|he e^cfremely low price' pt £1650, and it is 1 confidently asserted that if this is purchased' and applied to drain the ground, that- the Company will be enabled to work profitably foV a number of years, to come. .. ; .A deposit-of is. per share, still Jie made ion application, 2s, rpßr pB- allotment, and.. the .calls not to exceg(| 2g 6d' per -$hare per month, of which due notice will be given iby advertisement.,,. „; , . „ . lv • T . , * ApplitfatibTld Tor abates ■td he tnade < to iMessrs Polloct Qrid- Sevang fiok4tika; or jto the Manager, at Ross.- . 1483 c ! .-.>-")•■',: 1. !.:■, •■■.iih.vmu.l.^.!':'!!)... : .mENp'feks fas:ffiVitffl m, ;pj&£yiNG ;W.
