,The Company is foimed for the purpose of carrying into
cifect an agreement made for the purchase of 'the undermen-
, ,tion,ed Coal, Trott), and other Works, which have for a long
• tiil been carried on with very satisfaetory results by private
' individuals,;,and'are.cipable of nconsiderable expansion, with
Featly increased profits., .
" The. Propertieseand 'WOrks hive been purchased on very
favourable terms, on valuations made by eminent mining
•; engineers.
Vie 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.
jo 4. The Aberstychan Collieries and Iron Works.
t(c. i• ,5. The Pontypool Collieries and Iron and Tin-plate
Works. - . •
o. The Abercarn Collieries and the Chapel 3t arni4.2s.ate.-
7. Wharves and Landing Stages at Newport.
All in the county of Monmou h.
8. Haematite Iron and Coal Galeages or Royalties In the
Forest of Dean, in the county of Gloucester
9. The Brendon Hills Carbonate of Iron or Spathose
Mines, in the county of Somerset.
And the Ebtates comprise :-
3,251 acres of Fre. hold Land and Mines.
7,215 acres of Leasehold Mines, and agv.ements for leases
having upwards of 8) years unexpired.
2,137 acres of Leasehold Mines, having from 10 to 50 years
unexpired.
700 acres of MineA 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 d coal 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
£14,000 a-year.
The works afford employment to more titan 15,000 persons,
representing a population of 50,000 people.
Schools for the accommodation 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 prcducs of the various colleries is
850,000 tons of coal ; and this quantity can, with a compara-
tively sma 1 outlay, be increased to Li million tons annually.
The produce of iron-stone is 280,003 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
tons of pig iron, including 12,000 tons of Pontypool cold blast,
but the arrangements are adapted for the production of
180,030 tons. About 90,000 tons of r•ils and finished iron are
sold annually, which can be increased to 120,000 tons with the
present applianc a.
All the properties are very favourably placed in regard to
si.uatien of works and facilities' of transport. The coal and
iron-atone 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
years ; and with a small outlay will yield a further supply of
tOO,COO toes of coal per annum, for household and steam pur-
poses, for a like period.
The hwmatite iron ore and coal properties held in the
Forest 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
miles 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
hmmatite ores for the manufacture of the best iron and
steel. It is estimated that, when full' opened, the mines now
held by the Company will produce 100,000 tons annually for
50 years.
The very extensive and valuable mines of spathose iron
ore, in Somersetshire, belonging exclusively to the Company,
are the only mines of their kind now being worked in art at
Britain, excepting the small veins found in the Durham lead
mines. 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 deliv. red
in England from Germany, which country furnishes neany
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, sill insure to them the same advantages
in the manufacture of steel rails as the Ebbw Vale Company
have so long enjoyed in 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 est stock-
taking in September, 1863, and are to be paid for within six
months.
The'contracts 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 of the concerns comprised in the
present purchase, will undertake the duties of Chairman of
the Board, and has consented to act as Managing Director for
a period of five years, thereby securing to the new Company,
the benefit of his long practical experience in the manage-
ment 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 princip .1 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 of the various works,
extending over a considerable period, and from a due con-
sideration of the advantages possessed by the Company,
the Directors feel justified in anticinatieg 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 sterling.
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.
paid.
No promotion-money or other similar payment will be
made.
Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained at the
Bank of England, and its several Branches ; from the
brokers ; or from the undersigned, by whom any further
information required will be furnished.
