Ordinance determining the manner in which in future places and lands shall be dealt with, where precious stones and valuable metals may be found, situate within the boundaries of the Orange Free State.

That the proprietor of a piece of land, on which precious stones or valuable metals may be discovered, shall forthwith give notice of such discovery to the Landdrost of the District within whose jurisdiction the place is situate, in case the proprietor should intend to open diggings on his place. II. That the Landdrost above mentioned, having received information from the proprietor or occupier of the ground, as mentioned in the previous section, or receiving information in any other way of the discovery of precious stones or valuable metals, shall forthwith in writing report the same to His Honour the President of the State.
