CAPITAL ~„, -£40,000, In 10,000 Shares at £1 Each. One Shilling per Share payable on application, and One Shilling on allotment. Calls not to exceed One Shilling.snd at intervals of not leas than three months. (After the first Call the Directors do not antloi pate that a further Gall will be necessary). Provisional Directors : Joseph L. Clark Thos. Holder P. Comiskey Joseph Howard A. J. Cadman James Russell Bankers t The Bank of New Zealand. Solicitors : Secretary : Jackson & Russell M.S. Leers Brokers : Brokers' Association. The object for whioh this Company Is formed Is the acquisition of freehold and leasehold lands which are known to contain gold or other minerals, witha view of prospecting and mining thereon; also of leasing the whole or portions' thereof for mining purposes, reserving royalties, or at a fixed rental, or both. The discoveries of gold, from time to time, at various localities on the Coromandel Peninßula,' show, beyond a doubt, that the numerous quartz bearing ranges whioh traverse the whole of that peninsula are more or less auriferou3, requiring only vigorous and persevering prospeoting to develope and bring to light rich lodes. Having this fact before them, the promoters have succeeded in purchasing the foe simple of that valuable blook of land, situated at Coro mandel, known as tho Toumatawahlne Block. This blcok contains 167 aores of land, and Is tra versed in every part by gold-bearing quartz-' reefs, which, up to the preaent time, have remained comparatively unprospected. On tho boundary ot this blook the Success Gold Mining Company and other companies are now carrying on operations, with excellent prospects, ! the former Company having obtained its last parcel of specimens within a few feet of the boundary ot the blook; and there is no reason to doubt but that the whole of the remainder of the Taumatawahine Blook Is equally as valuable as the ground now being worked by that Company, This block possetaes great advantages for economic working, as banks of from 500 to 600 feet can be obtained without Binklng, and with out the aid of expensive machinery. It also contains a large quantity of valuable kauri timber, whioh will prove serviceable to the Company. . , ■' '■.. ■' . In order to Beoure the thorough prospecting of the land, the directors have decided to issue per mits to proßpeotors, upon liberal conditions. The annexed reports will give Borne idea of the property, and the promoters now offer it to the public on the terms herein set forth. The promoteis are bo satisfied with the pros pects of the Company that they have agreed to accept the greater part of the price of the land in partially paid-up shares—lo,ooo shares, of 5s eaoh paid-up, being reserved for this purpose—the \ balance of the purchase money (fi1,200) being payable to them in cash. ; Applications for shares to be made before the 30th oC September, In the accompanying form, and addressed to the Secretary, at the Company s Office, 19, New Zealand Insurance Buildings, In allotting the shares the Directors will 'give priority to early applications.
