Hongkong Mines, Ltd, announced a profit on the year's lead mining operations this morning of $1,757 after the provision of Directors' Fees amounting to $8,000.
During the year the Company had effected a compromise settlement with its former General Managers, Messrs Nielson and Co, Inc., of a debt amounting to $235,988 an the Company's plant, machinery, and mining equipment.
Mr T. A. Martin, acting chair- man in the absence of Mr L. R. Nielson, said that full discharge of the debt was effected for $248,142. He added that the company's war losses, incurred during the war when the mines were worked by the Japanese, now ceased to appear in the balance sheet, together with pre-war chims against the com- pany
amounting to about $15,000. ON OWN ACCOUNT Mr Martin said: will have beeri noted in the Report, a one year operating contract expired in April 1954, since when "we have been working directly on our own account and subject to the
