For Sale, pEM CLAIM (TOKATEA REEF). , The Gem Mining Association having, In ad di- I tion to their original section, jnst acquired a I valuable block of ground nearer to the Tokatea workings, havo deoided to sell Three Reserved Shares at £75 eaoh to augment the present Reserve or Working Fund. The new ground has i'eon locked up for some time by parties rot working it, and is within 130 feetoC the flist rise in the Blemarck and Tokatea low levol, whore the first natoh of sp>olmens was got aftor tho No. 7 Level was put in. The Tokatea reef runs into and through tho centre of tho Gem Uround ; near the boundary there era baoka from the Tokatea low level of about 300 feot intaot to tho surface of the Gem Ground. Tbe money derived from the Sale of the Shares will, without reservation, be applied (together wilh the Fund, now in the Bank of New Zealand) to working on the reef, thus rioh gold may at any moment be struok, and Shareholders may actually receive their own money back with dividends from the mine. The Tokatea pro duced £132,000 worth ot gold without making a call; and now that a New Seotlon ot their cele brated reef is to be openoi up, similar results it |« hoped will accrue. The prioe askod for tho Gem Fromotors,Shares is merely nominal (repre senting Is (id per share it in a comranj), ana in vestors have tho gratification of knowing that the wholo of the money goes to work the groun d. An important feature In tho position of this ground is, that one of tho greatest shots of gold worked in tho Tokatea in its most brilliant days dipped to the east with tho spur, was cut in the Bismarck, and gave them their biggest hauls of specimens, and Its course is now traceable into this unworkod and, perhaps, hitherto undis covered section of one of the most renowned roofs in tho colony. Cheap Crashing Power Is tho most Important auxiliary to qnortz-tiin ing operations, and tho Gem Is better off In this respeot than any other olaim, having the Tokatea battery on its boundary, while tbe Blsmnrok battery, acknowledged to be the best and most poworlul on the goldflold, is at no great distanoo, and the tramwuy to tho latter runs through the, Gem ground. Both theso plants are available when required. Tbe Mining Surveyor's report and plan may be roforred to, showing that the course of the ret f for 880 feot is through the Gem ground. T wolve shares are already taken np; threo are now ollered, as stated (eaoh 1-llith. at £75), and a fourth aharo Is resorved, at £200, to meet future oontingencios, If required, and prevent the pos sibility of a call.
