Thorpe, Esq., M.D. 1 Managing Director : Albert Beetham, Esq. : This Company is being formed for the purpose of working that portion of the coal seams of tbe IMount Kochfort District, on the West Coast of iEev Zealand, the natural outlet of which is at tbe Ngak*wau River, with the object of supplying to New Zealand, from her own soil, a coal at once superior in quality and lower in price tban can be obtained from New South Wales. j Its evapoaating power is considerably higher 'than Grey River coal, which has; up (to the present been considered the best available coal in New Zealand;' and . tested . against the average New South Wales; coal delivered in thia country, it possesses 25 per cent more evaporative power, rendering it consequently of one-fourth more ' value, which, in addition to the saviDg of labor and space, is for ocean steamers a great consideration. . A lease of 400 acres has been obtained, and the whole of it is (believed to contain coal. A larger area, extending into Mount Frederic, has been applied for, ia order that the operations of the Company may be conducted on a scale commensurate "with its hatidhal Importance. The thickness of the seam is now over twenty feet. At present the p.s. Result is supplying West port with coal from Ihis mine, aiid small craft are carrying away coal from the pit's mouth at . 10s per ton. Comparatively inexpensive harbor works will render the river available for vessels drawing 10 feet of water; but it may jbe improved indefinitely. '•"' -;'•" : ';; ■, 1 A mine possessing these . advantages can a once, secure ,a. ready market both in this country and ** in* Victoria;— the quantity' of New South Wales coal alone consumed last year in this ■ country exceeding 100,000 tone, and a demand for Ngakawaur coal.; having already sprung up in Melbourne; * •• '", :! •"■■■ *' . • '"■■■ :''''' ' '■ •- ' * ■•■• j Prostectuses; and Forms of Application and . fhrtheif; iniformatidn, jfmay/be obtained ofT'the.' undwme^wned'Ageti^ zXY.yiX.Xi y"y : . ■;;■' Moßßnp^,;-|So£Aß]>^BS Atfi>;Co.; -NelsoiS ,y '-k ■ I I J. 4'iiUamaja>i Weiiiugtoh':^ " • ' ;' V- '■■ " yX,_ .', ;: X. *',:'■' RiOHABD-GABMokj* Auckland" : 'tk k ■ ' ,'." i: ..
