Finally, your Company has been allotted an interest in gold and base metal propositions now being developed by Marsman & Company, Inc., in the United States, and also a considerable participation in an alluvial gold property in British territory, which all look very promising. Gentlemen, in closing my remarks I would like to add that it is my determination to do my utmost, given reasonable favourable conditions, not only to recoup the losses of the past, but to place the Company on a fair dividend earning basis as soon as possible. It is the only Marsman subsidiary which is not in this position; my reputation is at stake and I shall not rest content until it is. I commend our Managing Director, Mr. Robert de Vos, and his local staff for their untiring efforts on behalf of the Company, and am especially grateful to Directors Dodwell and Wilson for their wise counsel and helpfulness in the administration of our business affairs. I now beg to move that the Report and Accounts for the year ended 30th April, 1939, be approved and adopted.
