. PROSPECTUS OF THE pHICAGO GOLD MINING COMPANY, Limited. 1 j Capital : £12,000, in £24,000 shares of 10s. Each. Pkopekty — A Gold Mining Lease of loa. lr 6p., Boatman's Oueek, County .»f liiiiiisahua. The proprietors of the above lease have determined to proceed as promptly as possible to open up and develop the reef in this ground, the existence of which being of a satisfactorily auriferous character, is shown by the favorable show of Sold obtained at various times on the surface on the line of r«>ef. The undertaking being of greater magnitude than the means of the present proprietors will allow — though of small extent in the case of a company — as proposed, offer a portion of the shares to the public at one shilling per share, and immediately the shares are allotted a meeting of the shareholders will be called to elect a Directory, and the Company will he then Registered and work commenced. This mining lease was formerly known as the Lucky Hit, the boundaries being identical. It is fair on the line of reef, which in its continuous N. and S. course contains the Homeward Bound mine at its north cud, then, successively, south the Eureka, Welcome, Hopeful, Fiery Cross, Walhalla, Just-in Time, Reform, South Hopeful, Chicago, Multum in Parvo, Lone Star, Britannia, Britannia Ex^ tended. TJie Jk»t -««?#» *rf these lfniies >kfinfft(^i 'o? Boatman's Creek, and the last six south of the Creek, on the high range between Boatman's Creek and the Left hand Branch of the Inanuahua. The success of many of these mints beinsj so well known, it requires no particular account of here, beyond pointing out flic fact that the mining leases south of the Creek have during the last few months only, had any attention paid to them in the way of prospecting, and that only of a limited nature, compatible with the means of small parties of prospectors. The success of these limited operations has been demonstrated, notably in the case of the Line Star, which mine lies south about 400 feet of the Chicago. The Lone Star by a comparatively small expenditure have opened a mine the market value of which at present is £6000, (vide late sales), Bnd doubtless with judicious expenditure of a small atnonnt of capital on other leases in I that locality similarly satisfactory results are to be obtained, and the wealth of this hitherto neglected portion of the Boat man's line i>f reef bro ugh t to light to the bent-tit of the adventurers. The grade of the surface in the Chicago allows the reef to be prospected by short tunnels — a great advantage over shaft workings. A tramway about 20 chains in length would make connection with the Justin-Time aud Fiery Cross batteries, where crushing could he performed at a moderate charge. The length of the lease on the line of reef is 1.100 feet, and it was pegged otf with the view to contain the reef at lower levels, allowing for strike and underlie.
