Andrews, Esq., Westport. ’■ ; j The object of this Company is to work ft coalmining lease of 800 acres, situated at Waimangaroa Basin, Mount Boehfort ' coalfield, near Westport. • 'J he ground comprised in this lease has been very;carefully selected from three prospecting areaa:pf-;;6000 acres, aud about £IOOO has been expended in obtaining the lease, prospecting, surveys, and other works necessary to prove the mine... ■>,. ’’ "■ o’ i In reference to this lease, Mr. R. B. Dennialou, Government Coal;Viewer,.in his evidence* given before; the Royal-Commission at Westpint, says:—“ The total tonnage; ia this lease,; including tlie ieast and west slopes,' is about 3j600,000. tons, the coal being of the best quality.” "b 1 j The report of analysis of coal from this part of the field at Woolwich Dockyard shows that it is equal to the best north of England coal for- steam purposes ( Vide Admiralty■ report r on: Nelson coal presented to the Nelson Provincial Council, March 16, 1866). ; The railway is completed and open for traffic from Westport to Waimangaroa, and the Wel--lington Coal Company have made' a branch line of one mile five chains in length up the river, and from this point it is proposed to make a tramway to the coal, about two miles in length. The Government coal waggons; will be loaded at end of tramway line) thence forwarded over Government' railway tb'Westport,- where; there is now / building railway wharf, "station, sidings, and. a large viaduct and coal staitlis, from' which the coal'will be shipped direct into the vessels. ‘ The port of Westport offers' great .facilities for shipping, the average depth of water/on the ;bar being 12 to 15 feet; audit ia expected when the protective works, now in course of construction, are completed the : depth will be increased to from 18 to 20 feet. ! By careful computation it has been estimated? that the cost of opening up and con-necting.-the mine with the Government railway; including all necessary plant, will not exceed £15,000, and further,-the coal can be shipped free bn board at Westport at Ss. per ton. i The terms of the lease will compel the Company to have the mine in working order early in 1878, so that shareholders may rely ou having returns for their money within twelve mouths. ■ Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained at. the offices of the undersigned, where a sample of the coal may be seen.
