the first of which was that a medal, to be called the Clarke 
Memorial Medal, should be awarded for meritorious contributions 
to the Geology, Mineralogy, or Natural History of Australasia, 
to be Open to men of science, whether resident in Australasia or 
elsewhere, 
The second was to establish a lecture, to be called the Clarke 
Memorial Lecture. 
He said the reason they had not moved in the matter before 
Was because the amount collected had not come up to their 
*xpectations, and since they found that they could not have the 
two, the opinion of the Council was to begin with the medal, 
Which he thought should be of gold in preference to bronze. : 
it was moved “ that the Council be authorized to procure a die » 
for the Clarke Memorial Medal, such medal to be of gold, and of 
the value of £10.”

miversity for the medal, but the Chairman said that as the
