THERE are signs of an approaching mining boom in the shares of Matabeleland Rhodesian Companies , sinoe the surprising possibilities attaching to these shares received another illustration in a cablegram just to hand announcing a sensational discovery on one of these properties , the reef being stated to give 17 A ounces of gold to the ton .
The shares of Matabele Mines have risen to over £ 3 10 s , and those of Matabele Gold Reefs to over £ 9 within the last week . Taylor's Matabele Gold Fields £ 1 shares , before the slump which took place in mining shares in 1 S 95 , were selling at over £ 2 15 s per share . On the Company ' s "Battery Reef'' there are very extensive old workings , and on this property a Bhaft has been sunk to the depth of thirty-five feet , exposing a reef of more than four feet in width , and panning well over two ounces of gold to the ton . These
shares are now selling on the London Stock Exchange at under their par value , and as they have raised all the additional working capital they require , and own some of the most valuable gold properties in Matabeleland , close to where the latest strike of 17 £ ounces of gold to the ton has been made , those in the know have been quietly picking up the shares at their present low prices , and say they expect to see the price of the shares of Taylor ' s Matabele Gold Fields in the near future standing at as many pounds as they are now shillings .
