IT is proposed to form a Company for working the Reefs discovered on Cape Jackson, in the Province of Marlborough, and recently prospected with very favorable results. The property consists of a Lease of \b\ Acres of Land granted under the Mining Le,se Regulations for a term of 15 years. The Reefs occur between soft sandstone and slate, affording great facility for extraction. Considerable work has been done by the Prospectors, viz.: Two shafts have been sunk, one 23 feet and the other 85 feet in depth. In the latter, at the depth of 55 feet, a cross cut haa been driven for 52 feet, cutting three distinct bodies of quartz, all of them gold-bearing. Qn the course of No. 1 a drive has been made 30 feet in length, and it has b^en proved by the tesjis applied that the j ield will average 2| oz. of gold to the ton of stone • and where it has also been driven on for 9, distance of 35 feet, at the 85 feet level, gold is freely to be seen in the stone. No timbering has yet been required. Since the above work was concluded, the Prospectors have succeeded in discovering on the property another and distinct Reef, which has been opened out at short intervals for a distance of say 1,000 feet. The stone is thickly impregnated with gold, and has been estimated by competent judges to yield at least 7 oz. to the ton. At about 60 feet from the last-named reef another occurs, which is gold bearing, but which has not been prospected. ,^3?he bearings of each of tbe above are the same, the course being N.W. and S.E. The Proprietors propose to part with their interest for 1,000 fully paid-up Shares, and £600 in money — £300 to be paid on completion flf the purchase, and £30Q out bif tbe "first "nett profits of the Mine. The Prospectors bind themselves not to sell any of their Fhares before six months after the formation of the Company. The permanent Board. of Directors shall consist of eight members, three of whom the Prospectors reserve to themselves the right to nominate, and this proportion, under all circumstances, to, maintain All pyelfminary expenses, such as printing prQspect'hs.'adver.ising, &ej, shall' be defrayed by the Company.
