Misima Gold

Mine Being Prepared For Resumption

CUTHBERTS Misima Goldmine, Ltd., that famous Eastern Papua money spinner, had an income in its last financial year (1943) of £761 (interest on £27.000 in bonds and cash), and expenses totalling £746, and thus showed £l5 profit on the year- Although the Japs were in the Louisi ades in 1942, the mine suffered no direct war damage. Late in 1943, a mine main tenance party, under Mr. W. Henley, returned to Misima; and the work of restoring the mine, to permit the resump tion of gold-winning, is now proceeding steadily.
