G'day,
NEW DREDGING ENTERPRISE. 1926
SEARCHING THE CREVICES. HIGH-POWERED SUCTION DREDGE FOR THE SHOTOVER. OPPORTUNITY FOR INVESTORS. Most of us remember the fabulous returns of gold that were won from the Shotover when dredging was at its height, and how fortunes were made almost overnight. Will the good old days ever return. It is stated with confidence by experienced miners that there is more gold left in the Shotover than has ever been taken out of it. Can this gold be 'raised from its bed in the crevices? The modern highpowered suction dredge now enables one to say yes. It is well known that the old-fashioned dredge simply scratched the surface. It has neither the power nor the ability to lift the gold where it lay in the largest quantities — in the crevices. To achieve this a new type of dredge is necessary — one that will work the crevices and draw the goldbearing material up by suction. This type of dredge is to be installed by the Shotover Consolidated (Limited), a new company that has secured approximately nine miles of claims of the famous Shotover river, and will dredge this wonderfully rich patch with the latest scientific methods and equipment; . The company already has been registered, and it will commence operations at an early date.
