PLATINUM DISCOVERY
PROSPECTS IN SIERRA LEONE British Wireless—Press <ssn.—Copyright Reed. 12.5 p.m. RUGBY, Tuesday. The Colonial Office states that the Government of Sierra Leone has received a considerable number of applications in connection with the discovery of platinum in that colony. Prospecting rights have been granted to all suitable applicants, and the Government of the colony hopes, before long, to be able to give a decision regarding giants of exclusive prospecting licences, mining rights, or mining leases. The Sierra Leone Government considers it desirable to announce, however, that applications for exclusive prospecting licences have already been received in respect of practically the whole of the area specially suggested by the director of geological survey as being worthy of investigation. —A. and N.Z.
