ABROSPECTUS.
This Company hasßlDGEDbeen duly registered with limited lia-
bility.
Its object is the purchase of a large interest in the cele-
brated lead mines of Monteponi, in the Island of Sardinia,
together with the extensive lead smelting establishment of
Pertusola and the Sarzanello Coal Mine in the Gulf of Spezz.
The purchase-money for these properties (including eleven-
twelfths of the Monteponi Mine), plant, engines, &c is
£150,000. and it is estimated that £50,000 will be required as
floating capital, so that in fixing the nominal capital at
£?50,000, a margin of £50.001 is left to enable the Company to
take advantacre of such opportunities as may present them-
Pelves of extending their interest in Italian mines.
This undertaking differs essentially in its nature from ordi-
nary mining enterprises. Its car,ital being invested in the
purchase of mines and works, which are in full operation, and
yielding very large returns.

sidered unless a deposit of ti for each share applied for shall

pany. This sum will be returned in full in the event of no
