GrebnWOOD, 129, Queen-street, Auckland Tho objects for which the Company has bean formed are to purchase the valuable freehold Coal and Iron Fields, owned and worked b/ the late Mr Footc, some few years ago; also, to work and win Coal, Iron, Fireclay, make Bricks, and do aH things that from time to time may be to tho advantage and welfare of the Company. The property mentioned consists of over 1,000 acres of freehold land, situated near the Miranda Redoubt, at the head of the Maramarua River, about 10 miles from thg Meromera siding, Wai kato Railway Line, about 10 miles^from Mercer, and about 10 miles from Mercer, and about 10 miles from deep-water frontage opposite the Thames Goldflelds. The land is good agricultural land, and there are upwards of 10 acres of totara, matal, rimu, and puriri bush, all suitable for mining pur poses. Numerous trial pits havo been sunk all over the property, and coal was found In about 90 of them, at a depth of from 7 to 30 foet from the surface, tho seame extending to a thickness of SI feet. The property abounds In first-olasg fire and other clays, and has enormous valuable deposits of very rich iron ore. Tho following resulr was obtained by Dr. James Hector. Analvtst to th« New Zealand Government, from a sample of Hematite Iron submitted to him, viz. ;— Metallic Iron 62-80 Oxygen 274 Manganese traces. ' Titanium traces. Silicates ioea Ho adds: "If the ore can be obtained in .quan tity, it will be the most valuable I have seen in Now Zoaland." All the iron ores are in abun dance, and have been tested by experts, and in every case 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 the thiok noss of tho seam worked by Mr Foote was 54 foot, and tho whole drift of evidence goes to show that a large area of Coal of great thickness extends nearly all over the property. The Old mine was kept easily free from water, and con- Bidoring tho top of the soam was only 13 feet under die surface, and close to the swamps, it is evident that tho roof is safe and watertight. Wo believe that, on tho basis of 600 tons per week, the Coal can be mined and put on board the bargoa for 2s Od per ton, including pumping, " Quality ok Coal.—This is well known to us to bo equal to the average Waikato Goal, and only slightly inferior to the best Taupiri Coal, which has now entered so largely into übo in all circumstances, from locomotive down to household fuel. Mr Footc'B Coal was largely used by steamers, and we are quite sure it only wants to bo introduced to take its place at once in tho market. "Tho cost of mining and delivering the Coal on tho railway is estimated at Is por ton; tha railway freight is—to Auckland or Onehunga. 5s Jd, making a total cost 9s Id—say lOspor ton." Mr Stewart, in his report, says: "The Coal was slightly infer.or to. the Taupiri Coal." This was the upper portion of the seam, but the lowor portion was found to bo quite equal in quality to the Taupiri Coal, and There is every reason to bcliovo that at a greater depth from tho surface other and moro valuable deposits of Coal will bo found. The'lmmediate capilal| required to bring tho Coal into tho Auckland market—which can be done within six months from date, a*, the rate of from COO to 800 tons por week—is about £6.0C0. In bringing this Prospsctus before tho public, the promoters would call their attention to the following important facts :— 1. That no outlay is required for the pur pose of proving the mineral field. 2. That tho steady increase in the demand for Coal fully warrants tho Company commoncingoperations and energetically working tho scams. 3. That tho flold is all ready for operations, and only requires capital to fully devolop It so as to render tho Company a safe and profitable investment 13,000 Shares aro already taken up, leaving 17,000, which aro now offered to the publio, applications for which aro to bo lodged with the undersigned, any of the Diroctore before men tioned, or any Member of the Brokers' Association, on or boforo SATURDAY, the 17th day of November, R.
