Messrs. S. M. South; J. R. Hudson, and Henry Young, Hokitika: . : Dunedin Broker : Mr. J. B. Bradshaw,! Bankers; Bank of New Zealand. The object of the proposed company is' to work a .mineral, lease ,of .500 acres, situate! at Mount Rangitoto, County of Westland, formerly known as Hudson’s Lease, which lease has since .been purchased from the Waste Lands Board by Mr. Henry. YoUng. ■ ( !_ The Lease is known as No. 2, West of the . Mount Rangitoto Company’s mine, r The area secured is 500 acres, on which two distinct lodes of ore—one fifteen inches, and the other varying from three to five feet in width—outcrop. , ■. Mr. Arthur, Mining -Surveyor,, who has recently returned from completing a survey of the Lease, reports as follows : • “ I may state that in addition to lodes formerly reported on, Mr, Palmer, one of the original prospectors of the Mount Rangitoto Silver Mine, who kindly volunteered his assistance in . the survey, discovered a large lode in one of the creeks running-through: this Lease, the, position of which you will see on the plan, and marked “ quartz reef.” The reef is from fifteen, to eighteen feet in thickness, and bearing east 13 deg. south, and west 13 deg. north, underlying to the north at an angle of about 80 degrees. "ThisTode is in a' direct line with those now, being worked ;by the, Prospectors’ Company, and shows both galena and pyrites. Mr. Palmer also discovered s great quantity of stream tin in two different creeks in the Lease,'some of the boulders being from''two to three hundredweight. I am of .the..opinion-that..an immense tin lode must also' /run through the .Lease, from the quantity of. stream tin in the two crefeks.” [ ... ..The ..original prospectors of the Mount Rangitoto Company’s Mine also report as fol-_ lows upon this lease:— : ~“Twe;.lbd4s of ore-similar to those in the Mount Rangitoto Company’s Mine outcrop in this Lease, one of fifteen -inches-r-the other varies from three to five.feet in thickness.” j Tt is' proposed ’to engage from, Califorhia-.a , thoroughly.: competent and -experienced' silver mining-manager; 'and "to 1 have the mine developed and .worked on sound scientific principles; ' ; and,. with •, the ‘ latest machinery., lAs there is an abundant supply-of water-and timber in the immediate vicinity ofthe.mipe, and ' the Government have now in-progress'a line of.road,which will connect .the__Mount .Kangi■totq Mines witb : the jiuain Hokitika road, it is expected that the working of the mine, will be : conducted with fatility and economy. 1 i On transferring, the property to the proposed company, : the. promoters will receive 2000! fuUy.paid-up_£sjhareß, .and the sum.of £IOOO in cash., i.i 1 ;, ■■ j Early,application for shares: will be necessary, as the 'promoters confidently expect applications for fully double the number! of shares to be allotted, - ' ' Applications willbe received at any of .the principal branches of the Bank of New' Zealand throughout the colony, or by - - HENRY YOUNG,- ; ' : _ Hokitika, Interim Secretary.
