MANUAL, Coal Creek, PETEK BOYD. Bankers BANK OE NEW ZEALAND. The Ground of the Company consists of about five acres, adjacent to the Fourteen Mile Beach, through which the reef runs for a distance of 1200 feet. The reef, so far as has been prospected, is well delined, and varies in thickness from 8 to 22 inches, and several experienced miners have expressed it as their opinion, that, from the nature of the ground through which the reef runs there can be no doubt as to its permanency There has boon a trial crushing of a ton of stone from the reef aj the Government battery, which yielded hotter than 9 dwts. of gold, but the character of the stone sent could not be considered an average sample, it being largely intermixed with mullock. Besides this trial there has been a few small tests, none of which yielded less than at the rate of 3 ounces to the ton, and one test at the Bank of New Zealand Roxburgh yielded at the rate of nearly soz to the ton. From the situation of the reef every facility is afforded for working it, as the quartz to a depth of 400 feet, can be extracted by means of tunnelling, which may bo commenced on the reef in the Company’s ground, at a 400 feet level. There is also a water race on the Company’s ground, containing an ample supply of water for the working of a battery of any number of stamps up to fifty head, and this may be cither purchased m w’holo or part on the most reasonable terms from the proprietors. It is proposed, as soon as 1200 shares are disposed of, to convene a General Meeting of the shareholders, to make the necessary arrangements for the working of the Company. All applications to be made to the Secretary, J. C. SAVAGE, Roxburgh.
