ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The object of the Company is to acquire three valuable
mining properties in C'armarthenshire ; that is to say, New
Nantymwyn, Gilfach, and Glan-Towy.
New Nantymwyn is a continuation westward of the
celebrated Nantymwyn Mines. These Mines" have been
worked to immense profit for centuries, and appear to be
perfectly inexhaustible. Some idea may be formed of the
great value of these Lodes from the fact that they occupy
a channel of 180 feet in width, consisting of six divisions
or lodes, and that a sink on one of them IS now yielding
eighteen tons of rich quality ore, worth upwards of £2OO
per fathom for Lead.
The Gilfach property consists of a Lead Mine,
worked to some extent and furnished with water machi-
nery, in which a discovery of Lead 0!"e has been made
by an Adit. It is proposed by the Company to extend the
shaft downwards on this coursa of ore, as well as to ex-
plore another discovery of ore in the sett on the Lady
Eliza No. 2 Lcde,where there is a-glod back of ore ground
cropping up to and extending a considerable length along
the surface.

Glau-Towy is an old Lead Mine. Shafts, which
have yielded Lead Ore in some qu•intity, exist on the top
of the hill, and the present. Company propose to drive an
Adit to prove the value of the Lode under the old sinks.
Plans taken from the Ordnance Survey, showing the ex
act position of the Lodes, together with ground plans of
the estate sections of the Mines, and reports by skilful
mining engineers, are appended, and will be forwarded on
application to the Secretary. Specimens of the ore may
be seen at the Company's Offices.
Taking into consideration the position of the Mines, the
highly favourable prospects, and the return of ore being
immediately available, the Directors feel confident that,
with the outlay proposed, profits equal to the adjoining
mines will bo participated in by the Shareholders.
Applications for Shares, to bs accompanied with the
deposit of ss. per Share, may be made to the Secretary, at
the Offices of the Company, or the Bankers.
