Function / Content

This series consists of a Head Office register of mineral leases on the Daly River and Arunta goldfields. The entries were recorded in the following columns; number, total number of shares, locality, area, application, lease, name of lease, registered lessees, transfers, exemptions, rent, and survey fee. At the front of the volume entries were kept for mineral lease nos ML1K-ML19K on the Daly River goldfield. Four pages were filled with notes regarding mineral samples for the period 1952-1953, with another two entries for mineral leases on the Arunta goldfield, nos ML251H-ML252H. The remainder of the register is blank. The front flyleaf was annotated that all lease entries transferred to printed register. The Mining Registrar, Darwin, maintained two sets of registers for Darwin district and the Mines Branch, Head Office (relating to mining tenements and leases). The Mines Branch, Head Office, was moved to Alice Springs in 1942 and remained there until 1953 when it was moved back to Darwin.
