The almost unprecedented success of the Virtuous Lady for tin and copper, and the Queen and King for silver, tin and copper, blended with the amalgamation works, intro- duced for the extraction of silver from the lowest class silver ores upon the most scientific principles, place these properties before the public, not as a speculation, but as a mining investment, and the best medium now extant for the employment of capital to the greatest advantage, and where at least 100 per cent, may reason. ably be expected to be realised before the close of this year. The following are the proofs :-104 tons of copper from the Virtuous Lady has just realised £ 737 4s., or over £ 7 per ton whereas 4,000 tons sold from the other English Mines averaged but P-3 18s. At the General Meeting held the 22nd inst., at the above offices, a rock of silver ore from the Queen Mine, weighing three- quarters of a cwt., was exhibited, 25 per cent. of which is pure silver, together with 206 ounces of refined silver extracted at the model amalgamation works upon the Mine, which can be increased to any extent, from twenty tons of the lowest class silver ores, of which there is an unlimited quantity, at a net profit of over 100 per cent. Mr. B. will be happy to furnish any desired further in- formation, either by letter or person, at the above offices, where can be se"n his small museum of the specimens referred to together with others of silver, copper, tin, and mundics from the different Miaea.
