JAMES M'CAY. . / ' / HHHE Devils Creek Quartz Mining and Crushing Company is. formed to work 1200 feet of qnartz lodei already J- discovered near th.c junction of the Devils Creek with the Deep Stream, on the northern watershed of the Lammerlaw Ra,nge, about ten miles from the.. township of Waipori. A trial crushing of thrae tons— taking half from where, the lode crosses the creek, about midway iv the claim, find half from the east spur, abou> 100 feet from the creek— gave a return of six ounces, equal to two ounces of gold to a ton- . There is a copious supply of water, capable of working fifteen heads of stampers ; but as thera are special facilities for further proving the lode, it is proposed to put in a drive on either side of the creek at its level, and likewise to sink shafts on each range, which will have the effect of proving the lode to a depth of about 200 feet, and whilst this is being done, stone will be procured during the progress of the work for futare crushing. It may be remarked that the trial crushing was not picked stone, but taken from the whole width "of the •lode varying from nine inches to two feet in width ; and furthermore, some good atone has been found in the adjoining claim, No. 1 West. It is proposed to give" the discoverers £1000 in paid-up shares, thus leaving a ialance of £5000 available for the erection of machinery and buildings, cutting a road and water race, the latter about half a mile in length,. and the right to whicH water, supply the discoverers have. ii liihas been agreed by .the promoters that Is. per share be paid on application; that 23. 6d. be paid on ~^"o^^~month^T ■^-- i ~«-J^«-^ad-.Jn_c^ls, periodically, as funds may be rsquired ; aud no call to exceed The Share List will be kept open until April 9, 1872.
