Dibb'o Chambers, 58 Pitt Street Sydney; and J. W. HANNAN, 4 Werita Street, Greymouth, N.Z. REASONS FOR ISSUE OF RESERVE CAPITAL.—Tho Plant at first determined upon is rapidly nearing completion, but in view of the latest information regarding the markets for thei.various products, it;is felt imperative to augment the previous plant by additional machinery to still further reduce cost of production, and so enhance the investment. 'I ho aerial ropeway now being installed will' bring down 100 tons of rough stone every eight hours. The selling value of this will be so greatly increased by shipment , in tho form of sawn slabs that it is considered essential to instal suitable ' sawing machinery on the property. With this proposition tho N.Z. AdvisoryCommittee are entirely in accord, and tho Directors have no hesitation m recommending tho issue of this reserve capital to ensure efficient results. Briefly, the objects of this issue may be summarised as follows To complete the erection of the Plant and Machinery, now well advanced, including Aerial Ropeway, and for construction and development work. «... ... . \ To instal additional Plant and Sawing Machinery at the Beat of ... • operations to cheapen the cost of production. . To pay the cost of appointing Selling Agents throughout tho world. . ' To provide working capital. PROGRESS.—Tho Koadway from Kumara Main' Road to Lynch's Creek and the bridge across, that creek are now complete and in use. The two', Steam Tractors arc in commission carrying the plant to the site. Back-loading is being earned in conveying timber from private mills mto Kumara. J. be Power House is being orected. Tho foundations for tho trestles of the Aerial Ropeway are being made; this work entails considerable time and cost. Plana and specifications for the plant havo been prepared; the quarrying machinery, rock-drills, and boiler plant are at tho site, and other plant is m transit. _■ All plant has been placed on order, with the exception of the Sawing Machinery and minor equipment. None but the very best machinery has been ordered. It is estimated that tho total cost of the plant, machinery, erection of same, and allowing for all costs and expenditure so as to put the Company on a complete and thorough working basis as a going .concern will bo £20,000,. wlilCn would then allow £5,000 for Working Capital, MARKET.—Jndeing hv nnmerons inquiries from different parts of the world for the two varieties of Greenstone, viz., Serpentine (the decorative building stone) CJj trno New Zealand JoweUerv Greenstone), there is no reason tb donbt that a ready and lucrative _ ' market will.bo available sn'ffleiontlv large enough to keep the plant gome.in full' B wlng. In confirmation of this it may bo stated that samples of Serpentine have been irabmitted to various largo manufacturers of marble goods in Great Britain, who report that an. Immediate market is assnroi for stone of this quality. Tho Commonwealth Government have decided to u»e n quantity of our decorative Greenstone in connection with tho new Commonwealth Offices in London; Manv eager inquiries for Nephrite have como from Germany, where largo quantitlw 01 this Bemt-preclsu? bI«ho are worked.

PROSPECTS.—Tho future of the Company Is particularly bright, • ■ • that all the preliminary difficulties and engineering overcome.

The Directors have no hesitation in recommending the Company from an investment point of view.
