Shares of £1. brown. No 25. Folds. Formed London, 1895, to acquire copper mines near Barrancos, in Beja district, on Portugal's southern border with Spain. Liquidated 1908, when the mines were sold to James Whittaker, a Manchester cotton-manufacturer. We see the signature Montefiore, but this does not seem to be one of the famous holders of the name.
