3306 | 1900 | Formation of the Cromwell and Bannockburn Colliery Company. |
In April, the Cromwell and Bannockburn Colliery Company was floated. The shares and assets of the James Horn syndicate were purchased by the coal company. The Kawarau mines (#255 and #386) continued to be run by the mine manager John Crombie Campbell under the guidance of the general manager James St. Vincent Jaxon. |
3307 | 1902 | Mr Jaxon left the company and was replaced by Thomas Barclay. |
Mr Jaxon left the company and was replaced by Thomas Barclay. |
3308 | 1906 | General notes. |
By this time it appears that the coal company was producing coal from three working coal mines, and employing 50 miners. The only Adams Gully mine that was being worked seems to the #255. The mine manager Thomas Barclay had been replaced by Alexander Sinclair Gillanders late in 1902. |
3309 | 1907 | Location #386 was re-opened. |
The mine manager, Mr Gillanders opened up the old 'Kawarau' mine #386, but did not develop it further. |
3310 | 1914 | The company was wound up. |
The Cromwell and Bannockburn Colliery Company was wound up and the assets sold at public auction. It appears that the coal leases for Adams Gully may have been allowed to lapse at this time. |
