  2. An incorporated bank shall apply in writing to the Minister for a general gold-dealers' license, and, on receipt of a fee of five shillings, together with five shillings in addition for each branch at which gold-dealing is to be carried on, such license may be granted in the Form No. 110 in the Ninth Schedule hereto.

  3. Such license shall authorise the bank to deal in gold at every branch specified therein.

  4. The manager, or the accountant, or the officer in charge of the gold-buying department for the time being at every such branch shall be deemed to be a “licensee” within the meaning of the said Act.

Every licensed gold-dealer other than an incorporated bank, and, in the case of a bank, the manager, accountant, or officer in charge of the gold-buying department for the time being of the branch, as the case may be, shall personally conduct and carry out every transaction relating to the purchase or sale of gold, and shall, after every purchase or sale has been effected, forthwith record in his Gold-dealer's Book the prescribed particulars of the transaction.

  7. On or before the fifth day of each month every licensed gold-dealer and the manager at any such branch of an incorporated bank holding a gold-dealer's license shall forward to the Under-Secretary for Mines a return in the Form No. 112 in the Ninth Schedule hereto, containing the particulars therein prescribed with regard to every transaction relating to gold undertaken by him or by his bank during the preceding month.

  9. Any failure to comply with the provisions of clauses 181 to 183 of these regulations renders the person or persons liable to the penalties set out in sections 52–54 of “The Mining Act Amendment Act, 1905.”

  10. Any person who desires to obtain a temporary license to deal in gold in any remote locality shall lodge with the Warden an application in the Form No. 114 in the Ninth Schedule hereto, together with a fee of five shillings.

  11. Every temporary license granted by a Warden shall be in the Form No. 115 in the Ninth Schedule hereto.
