Tho Gom Mining Association having, in addi tion to their original section, just Required a valuable blook ot ground noarer to tho Tokatea working*, have decided to sell Three Roeorved Shares at £75 each to augmont the proßent Roservo or Working Fund. The new gronml has been lockod up for some tlmo by partiesnot working It, and Is within 130 feet of the first rise in tho Biemarok and Tokutea iow level, where tho first catch of specimens was got af tor tho No. 7 Level was put In. The Tokatea reef rung into and through tho centre of tho Gem Ground ; n«ar the boundary there ara backs from tho Tokatea low level of about 300 feet intact to tho surface of the Gem Ground. The money derived from tho Sale of the Shares will, without reservation, be applied (together with tho Fund, now In tho Bank of New Zealand) to working on the reef, thus rich gold may at any moment bo struck, and Shareholders miy actually receive their own money back with dividends from tho mlno. The Tokatea pro duced £132,000 worth of gold without making a call; and now that a New Section of their cele brated reef is to be opened up, sjmllar results it is hoped will accrue. The price asked for the G om Promotors.Sharos is merely nominal (repre sotiting Is Bd per Hhare if In a company), and in vestors have the gratification of knowing that tho whole of tho money goes to work tho ground. An Important featoro In tho poult-lon of this ground is, that one of tho prroatoßt shots of gold worked In tho Tokatea in its most brilliant days dipped to tho cast with tho spur, was cut In the Iliamarck, and gavo them their biggest hauls of specimens, and Its course ia now traceable into this unworked and, perhaps, hlthorto undls covorcd pectlon of one of tho most renowned roofs in the colony. Cheap Orußhing Power is tho r.iOßt Important auxiliary to quartz-mining otorations, and tho Gom is better off in this respect than any other claim, having the Tokatoa bsttory on its boundary, while the Bismarck batiery, acknowledged to bo the boat and most powerful on tho goldflold, Is at no groat distance, and the tramwsy to the latter runs through tho Gom ground. Both these plants are available when required.
