ABR.' DGED PROSPECTUS.
This Company is formed for the purpose of purchasing
and thoroughly working and developing the well-known,
Leeswood Collieries, near Mold, Flintshire, where an extra-
ordinary discovery of Cannel Coal has lately been made.
The Collieries are, at the present time, in profitable opera-
tion, and cor4derable quantities of very superior Cannel
Coal (upwards of 2,500 tons per month) are being raised
and sold at prices which leave a large profit.
The quality of gas produced from the Leeswood Cannel is
equal to that obtained from the well-known Torbane Hill
Mineral, or Boghead, which realises so high a price (about
40s. per ton) in Scotland.—Sea Dr. Fyfe's (of Aberdeen)
Report for comparative value of the Leeswood with this
and other cannels.
Contracts already exist with gas and other companies for
upwards of 30,300 tons per annum of the Leeswood Cannel
Coal, thus ensuring a sale for the whole amount of the pre-
sent railings; and additional contracts, to at least double
this extent, can be made directly the increased yield of the
collieries will afford the requisite supply.
The present get and sales of Cannel Coal from the proved
area alone (without taking into account the other proved
Beams) will yield for upwards of 20 years a certain dividend
of above 10 per cent. on the entire capital of £lOO,OOO, after
making a liberal allowance for all possible expenses and
contingencies (see " Statement of actual Itaisings, Sales,
and Expenditure for January, February, and March,
1862"), but with the proposed additional pits, by an outlay
not exceeding £lO,OOO, the amount raised will be more than
doubled, and the dividends increased in proportir. (See Re
ports of Mr. MacCulloch, Mr. MacDougal Smith, and Mr
It. C. Webster, of Ruabon).
Prospectuses in full, reports, statements of actual work-
ings, profits, &c., and forms of application for shares, can
be obtained at the Solicitors', Brokers', and at the offices of
the Company, from whence they will also be forwarded free
by post if required.
