Tenders. PERSEVERANCE MINING COMPANY (REGISTERED.) The Directors of this Company are prepared to receive OFFERS, until MONDAY, JUNE 2nd, from persons willing to WORK the above MINE on TRIBUTE. The claim is situate at Bedstead Gully, Collingwood, and comprises over thirty-five acred held under lease, fourteen and a-half of which have been recently acquired. There is a Battery of Twenty Stampers at the Mine, ten of which have been in use for about three years, and are at present in perfect working order ; the others were recently erected, and only require the tables being laid to be ready for use. . . The mine has been opened in various places by levels and an inclined drive, and the average yield has been over 7 dwts.- 19 grains gold, worth about 75s 6d per ounce. The power for working the ten stampers hitherto used is derived from a face, the fiuming of which was all new, and. the earthwork repaired in 1871, and which can be made capable of carrying sufficient water to drive the twenty stampers. ■ There is also a single-stamp Battery, Retort House, Manager's Residence, Stables, Huts, &c, and all the usual plant of a mine. Further particulars can be obtained at the Mine, from the Mining Manager, or from JOHN R. MABIN, Legal Manager. Nelson, New Zealand, April 15, 1873.
