The Company is formed for the purpose of carrying into
effect an agreement made for the purchase of tke undermen-
tioned Coal, Iron, and other Works, which have for a long
time been carried on with very satisfactory results by private
individuals, and are capable of considerable expansion, with
greatly increased profits.
_ Tile Properties and Works have been purchased
am very
favourable terms, on valuations made by eminent mining
engineers.
The Works consist of-
1. The Ebbw Vale Collieries and Iron Works.
2. The Sirhowy Collieries and Iron Works.
3. The Victoria Collieries and Iron, -Works.
4. The Abersychan Collieries atld. Iron Works.
5. The Pontypool Collieries and Iron and Tin-plate
Works.
6. Tl*Abercarn Collieries and the Chapel Farm Estate.
7. Wharves and Landing- Stages at Newport.
All ta the county of Monmou h.
8. 11.:mmatite Iron and Coal Galeages er Royalties in the
Forest of Dean. in the comity of Gloucester
1. The Brendon Hills Carbonate of Iron or Spathose
Mines, in the county of Somerset.
And the Estates comprise :-
3,254 acres of Fre • hold Land and Mines.
7,215 acres of Leasehold Mines, and agr, ements for leases
leaving upwards of 8 years unexpired.
2,737 acres of Leasehold Mines, having from 10 to 50 years
Unexpired.
700 acres of Mines in the Forest of Dean, held under a
Crown lease, renewable in perpetuity for perio is of 21 years.
About 9 miles in length, or about 3,! 00 acres, on the course
of the Spathose iron ore veins, in Somersetsh re, under leases
for about 50 years unexpired.
The leaseho u coai and iron-stone royalties are held on
Very moderate terms.
There are upwards of 2,000 houses and cottages on the free-
hold and leasehold estates.
The rentals from land, farms, and houses, amount to about
411,000
The works afford employment to more than 15,000 persons,
rep resenting a population of 50,000 people.
,Schools for the tocommodation of 2,200 children, and a Me-
chanics' Institute have been erected upon the estates.
There are 23 blast-furnaces, of which 16 are in operation at
the present time—three being cold blast.
The present annual produce of the various col'ieries is
.850,000 tons of coal ' • and this quantity can, with a compara-
tively small outlay, be increased to 14 million tons annually.
_The produce of iron-stone is 280,000 tons annually, which can
be increased to 450,000 tons.
The iron-making coals on these properties are of a superior
quality, free from sulphur, and eminently adapted for the
Manufacture of the best class of iron or steel.
The present annual yield from the furnaces is about 130,000
lons of pig iron, including 12,000 tons of Pontypool cold blast,
but the arrangements are adapted for the production of
180,010 tons. About 90,000 tons of rails and finished iron are
Hold annually, which can be increased to 120,000 tons with the
Present appliane,,s.
All the properties are very favourably placed in regard to
ail uatien CA works and facilities of transport. The coal and
Iron-stone mines, which are now drained and proved, will
supply the present consumption, without any material in-
crease of dead charges or outlay of capital, for upwards of 50
3,ears ; and with a small outlay will yield a further supply of
000,000 toes of coal per annum, for household and steam pur-
poses, for a like period.
The hematite iron ore and coal properties held in the
'orest of Dean will shortly be opened. and placed in
direct communication by railway with the various iron-
'Works, the distances between which and the place of pro-
duction will be from 2 , to 42 miles only, whilst this class of
ore is now carried to the works 3.0 miles by water and 30
alines by rail.
The Forest of Dean ore contains from 35 to 42 per cent.
of iron, and is well known for its superior quality over other
haematite ores for the manufacture of the best iron and
ateel. It is estimated that, when ful'y opened, the mines now
held by the Company will produce 100,000 tons annually for
60 ears.
The very extensive and valuable mines of spathose iron
tee, in Somersetshire, belonging exclusively to the Company,
are the only mines of their kind now being worked in Gnat
3ritain, excepting the small veins found in the Durham lead
bdnes. When these mines are fully developed the works of
the Company will possess advantages greater than any other
'Works in the supply of this most valuable materia for the
Manufacture of the best quality of iron and steel. And the
cost of producing spiegeleisn (pig iron) with this ore will
not exceed half the present cost of spiegeleisn delivered
in England from Germany, which country furnishes nearly
the whole of the supply required for the present consump-
tion.
The Directors have agreed for a licence for the manufac-
ture of steel by the Bessemer process, which, from the pecu-
liar resources they possess, they will be enabled to produce
in v, ry large quantities, and at a price that in comparison
With other works, n ill insure to them the same advantages
ha the manufacture of steel rails as the Ebbw Vale Company
have so long enjoyed is respect of iron rails.
The stocks of material and finished iron will be taken at
the cost price, as entered in the books at the ast stock-
taking in September, 1863, and are to be paid for within six
Months.
Thecontracts on hand, which are large, and at remunera-
tive prices, will be transferred to the new Company.
Mr. Abraham Darby, the principal proprietor and manag-
ing partner of the whole ot the concerns comprised in the
Present purchase, will undertake the duties of Chairman of
the Board, and has consented to act as Director for
a period ot five years, thereby securin;ataontarenngew Company
the benefit of his leng practical experience in the manage-
Meat of the works.
Mr. Joseph Robinson, also a proprietor in all the above
Concerns, and who for many years, as the London partner,
has had the principal management of their commercial ope-
rations, will, under the direction of the Board, conduct the
business of the Company as heretofore,

From certified reports on the profits oithevarioude
extending over a considerable period, and from a
ulderation of the advantages possessed by the Company,
the Directors feel justified in anticinating that the annual
dividends will be such as to give satisfaction to the Share-
holders.
The Vendors will subscribe for Shares in the Company to
the extent of half a million sterlinc.
Three hundred thousand pounds of the purchase money
Will be paid within two months, and the remainder by six
equal half-yearly instalments, with interest at 5 per cent.
