		The company was first registered in Batavia in November1904, after the owners of six Torres Strait schooner-based pearl-shelling fleets combined to purchase from the Dutch authorities a concession for the exclusive right to work the Aru pearl-shelling grounds.
		With its demise the Australian industry itself fragmented into smaller, mainly shore-based operations, which was what Commonwealth, Queensland and Western Australian legislators had been trying to achieve since the late 1890s, although they would never bleach the industry white, their principal preoccupation.
		The demise of CTC also represented a significant watershed in the competition between Australia (Britain) and the Netherlands East Indies (Indonesia) for resources in the Arafura Sea, an old theme that continues to resonate in the 21st Century.
