Greenwood, 129, Queon-streot, Auckland The objects for which tho Company has been formed arc to purchase the valuablo freehold Coal and Iron Fields, owned and worked by the lato Mr Footc, some fow years ago; also, to work and win Coal, Iron, Fireclay, make Bricks, and do all things that from time to time may be to tho advantage and welfare of the Company. Tho property mentioned consists ot over 1,000 acres of freehold land, situated near tho Miranda Redoubt, at the head of the Maramarua River, about 10 miles from tho Meremoro siding, Wai kato Railway Line, about 10 miles;from Mercer, und about 10 miles from Mercer, and about 10 miles from deep-water frontago opposito tho Thames Goldfields. Tho land is good agricultural land, and there are upwards ot 10 acres of totara, matai, rimu, and puriri bush, all suitable for mining pur poses. Numerous trial pita havo been sunk all over tho proporty. and coal was found In about 90 of them, at a depth of from 7 to 30 foet from tho Burfaco, tho seams extending to a thickness of 54 The property abounds In first-class firo and' other clays, and has enormous valuable deposits ! of very rich iron ore. Tho following result was obtained by Dr. James Hector, Anolyist to the New Zealand Government, from a sample of Hematite Iron submitted to him, viz.:— • Metallic Iron 62-30 Oxygen .. .. .. .. 27- Mangancso .. .. -. traces. Titanium tracos. Silicates .. 10-68 He adds: "If tho ore can bo obtained in quan tity, it will bo tho most valuable I havo seen in Now Zoaland." All tho iron ores aro in abun dance, and havo been tested by oxperts, and hi every caso with satisfactory results. The following aro extracts from Messrs Stewart and Hunter's report as to quantity, quality, and cost of delivering tho Coal in Auck land :—"lt is pretty well known that tho thiok noss of tho seam worked by Mr Footo was 54 feet and tho whole drlfUof evidence goes to show that a largo area of Coal of great thickness extends nearly all over tho proporty. The old mine was kopt oasily free from water, and con sidering tho top of tho scam was only 13 feet under tho surface, and close to tho swamps, it is evident that tho roof is safe and watertight Wo bollcve that, on tho basis of 600 tons por woek, the Coal can bo mined and put on board tho barges for 2s 6d per ton, including pumping. " Quality op Coal.—This is well known to us to bo oqual to tho average Waikato Goal, and only slightly inferior to tho best Taupiri Coal, which has now entered so largely into use in nil circumstances, from locomotive down to household fuel. Mr Foote's Coal was largoly used by steamers, and wo aro quite sure it only wants to bo introduced to tako its place at onco in tho market. • , "Tho cost of mining and delivering tho Coal on tho railway is estimated at 4s por ton; the railway freight is—to Auckland or Onohunga, os 4d, making a total cost 9s 4d—say lOspor ton." Mr Stewart, in his report, says: " The Coal was slightly inforior to tho Taupiri Coal." This was tho upper portion of tho seam, but tho lowor portion was found to bo quite equal in quality to tho Taupiri Coal, and thoro is every reason to bolievo that at a greater depth from tho surface other and mora valuablo deposits of Coal will bo found. The immediate capital required to bring tho Coal into tho Auckland market—which can be dono within six months from date, at tho rate of from 000 to 800 tons por woek—is about £6,000. In bringing this Prospsctus beforo tho publio, tho promoters would call thoir attention to the following important facts :— 1. That no outlay is required for the pur pose of proving the mineral Held. 2. That tho steady increaso in the demand for Coal fully warrants tho Company commencingoporationsand energetically working tho seams. 3. That tho field is all ready for operations, and only requires capital to fully develop it so os to render the Company a safe and profltablo investment. 13.000 Shares are already taken up, leaving 17,000, which aro now offered to tho public, applications for which are to bo lodged with tho . undorsigned, any of tho Dirootersbeforo men tioncd, or any Member op the Brokers' Association, on or before SATURDAY, tho 17th day of ,' Novorabcr.
