These Mines, foimerly worked to so much advantage, are
situated chiefly in the Parish of Breage, near Helston., in the
county of Cornwall, in the Gray Slate Formation, adjoining the
Granite, constitute a continuous run, above Two Miles long by
One broad, of ground which long experience has proved to be
one of the richest Mineral Districts in the World.

They are under Mining Leases for Twenty-one Years, at the
very moderate dues of 1-36th for the principal portion of the
ground, and 1-24thfor the remainder.

The tifines, (to which much New and Rich Mineral Property
has been added,) during the whole term of the former Work-
ings, and up to the time of the cessation of the Works, yielded
lame Profits,

The Official Returns from the Ore Books show that, during
the last workings, upwards of Two Millions sterling of Tin and
Copper Ore (yielding large Dividends) have been returned from
these Mines, and they are still capable of producing as much
more; a large proportion of the richest part being still unex-
hausted, and a still larger proportion unexplored.
There are numerous large Tin and Copper Lodes, of ascer-
tained richness and value, running through the whole length
of this Property, which will return large Profits to the Adven-
turers.

From the attention of the former Adventurers having been
engrossed by the amazing riches of their Main Lode, these Side
Lodes, though proved to be exceedingly rich wherever they
have been touched, were never worked to any depth.
When this is done the same rich discoveries may be expected
as so recently awarded the Adventurers in the United Mines in
Gwennap, where, under similar circumstances, the discoveries
made in the Side Lodes immediately returned large Profits.
Tin Ore, when the Mines last ceased working, was £35 per
ton; it is now above £6O per ton.
