This Comp iny is formed for the purpose of purchasing an
extensive and valuable grant of Lead, Copper, Iron Ore, and
Slate, en the north side of the noted Carder Idris Mountain,
known as the Cylannedd-fawr, in the parish of Llanegryn,
Merionethsh re, North Wales, held under lease for 21 years,
at 1-15th Royalty on all minerals (except Iron Ore, at a
Royalty of only 4d. per too).
The greet grant includes numerous lodes of Lead, Zinc, and
Copper Iron of the best quality, and blende with traces of
Gold—also excellent Slate.

A Copper lode opened upon, gives promise of excellent re-

An Iron vein runs through the entire grant.
An extensive bed of Slate of good cleavage can be worked
to great advantage.
The Silver-lead, proved by assay, has yielded 40 ounces of
silver to the ton of ore.
Lead and Copoer from a shaft at the end of the adit have
reali.ed £32 per ton.
The Iron vein is estimated to produce 61 per cent. of iron.
The Slate is of superior quality, and can be cut into pave-
rar
ent' flooring, chimney pieces, &c. The streams of water
_tinning through the grant offer great facilities for working,
,ceouring and c tti
uP('ll u cutting the slate. In fact, a Quarry opened
