A rich lode of Copper Ore exists in the leased land from 3 feet to & feet wide, the outcrop of which has been-; traced for upwards of a mile. There is ample depth of water for the largest vessels to lie within 600 yards of the nearest point of the outcrop of the lode. Between the outcrop and the sea a Tramway and Jetty (for the building of which and other purposes the Lessees have a right to cut timber), are all the works required for shipping the ore, ot which it may be truly said there is practically an unlimited quantity. The cost of getting, shipping, and landing at Newcast'e, N.S.W., where it is proposed to forward the ore for smelting, will not exceed £l 10s per ton. Several careful assays have, been made of the ore, the lowest result obtained being 15 per cent, and tbe highest nearly 70 per cent., or an average ot upwards of 40 per cent, of pare copper, but it is certaiti that a yield of 20 per cent of copper would leave a very large profit to the shareholders after payment of all outlay. Immediately on a sufficient number of shares being applied for, the allotment will be made, and a meeting of the share- ! holders called for tbe pux'pose of approving of the Articles of Association, electing a Chairman and Directors, &c Applications for shares, accompanied by the deposit, will be received by the undersigned, EDMUiN'D EC-JLES, Secretary.
