4.—Official Survey.

Upon receipt of such application and
deposit, or as soon thereafter as may be, the
Warden shall direct the Mining Surveyor to
proceed to the land applied for, and to survey
the same, and to report as to the area, boun-
daries, and description thereof, the character
of the ground, the likelihood of any river,
creek, or permanent water spring, or arti-
ficial reservoir, which may be included within
the boundaries of the said land, being re-
quired for or the feasibility of the same
being applied to, public purposes, or for the
use of the miners generally; and also as to
any claims to prior occupancy shall
come to his knowledge, inquiry as to which
it shall be his duty to make while making
the survey; and to furnish a plan of such
land on a scale of not less than five chains to
the inch, together with a tracing of so much
of the general map of the district as will be
sufficient to connect the particular area
applied for with at least one trigonometrical
station, or, in the absence of any such, with
some fixed point.

5.—Surveyor to post Notices.

The Surveyor shall, at the time of making
the survey hereinbefore directed, post a
notice in the form hereto annexed, in some
conspicuous place on the ground, and such
notice shall be maintained by and at the
expense of the applicants, until the applica-
tion has been heard and determined.

"Extended Claim" of (here state area) of land, which
the Mining Surveyor has this day marked out, and
that any person desiring to object to such extended
claim, must, within seven clear days from the date of
this notice, enter his objection at my office. And I
further give notice that I will hear and determine this
application and the objection (if any) lodged there-
against at my office aforesaid, on
day of

6.—Extended Claims to be registered.

If no valid objection is offered, the Wer-
den may, upon hearing the application, issue
a certificate of Registration for an "Extended
Claim," specifying therein the area granted,
the exact position of the same, and the
special conditions (if any) upon which such
certificate has been granted, and the charge
for such registration shall be ten shillings.

7.—Forfeiture.

If at any time the requisite number of
holders of Miners' Rights shall not be em-
ployed or occupied upon any such "Extended
Claim," the Warden may, upon proof thereof
being produced before him, in the presence
of all parties interested, cancel the Certificate
of Registration, either in the whole or in
part, as may be equitable. Provided always
that a monetary penalty may be imposed in
lieu of forfeiture, as hereafter set forth in
section 6 of Regulation XV.

Any holder of a Miner's Right who may
be desirous of obtaining a site for the erec-
tion of Machinery thereon, shall make appli-
cation in writing to the Warden, setting
forth the purpose and all particulars of such
machinery, and stating the exact locality of
the site applied for, and shall at the same
time deposit the sum of £5 as security for
the cost of survey and other necessary ex-
penses. And the Warden shall thereupon
direct the Mining Surveyor to make a sur
vey and plan of such site, and to report
thereon.

Any holder of a Miner's Right who may
be desirous of obtaining a site for the pur-
pose of stacking tailings thereon, shall pro-
ceed by application to the Warden in the

At the time of making any such survey,
the Mining Surveyor shall erect a post
measuring not less than two inches square,
and standing three feet above the surface of
the ground at each boundary corner of the
site applied for, and shall post a notice in the
form hereinafter set forth upon some con-
spicuous part of such site.
