Mills. r pHIS Comp ny h projected to enable X . prospecting on an extensive scale to be carried on throughout the minmg district of Marlborough, and to open out some of the 1 rge quartz reefs . nown to exist in certain loc lities. The handbook of New Zealand Mines gives the extent of our mineral district as 260 square miles. Gold was discovered at the Wakamarin:in 1864, and in the short spice ■ of 12 months over SOflOOoz of gold were obtained, but as most of the digger, then left for the West oasf no system tic prospecting has .been attempted since. Tne all vial deposits recently discovered at Mahakipawa, which have already yielded over Jj.Q.ooooz, the rich quartz reefs opened at Waikakaho, and the Golden Bar reef at Wakamartua indiaputab y prove this district is teeming with miner 1 vreaith, which only requires capital to daveop the mines and prove them remunerative veutu as. In offeing this scheme to the publie throughout the co ony the projectors claim to receive no direct benefit for themselves beyond their interest as shareholders. The persons employed as prospectors will be under the close supervision of the directors and will be paid, in part cash, the balance in shares. As all liability ceases on payment of Ifper share an interest in the Association is within the reach of everyone, .And the directors ask for a most liberal support, v . The Provisional Directors will commence operations as soon as a fair number of sh .rea have been taken up, a d applications for shares should be made at once to enable permanent directors to be appointed and rules adopted. The regulations of the u Mining Act 1888" 'provide that a subsidy can be obtained from Government through ihu Road Board, and the amount so obiained wilt substantially incro s the funds of the Association. Farther information may be ob ained on applying to the Secretary, to whom all applications for shaies are to be made. C. M.
