The discover* was made so'.ue
time a^'n and samples from the
ledge were senl to Fairbanks for
a say. and il was not until re
hirns had been received from the
lip river ramp that the tind was
made public. The assay returns
show Hint Ihe quartz, will yield
belter than slnti to Ihe ton, and »
although il will prov,, a costly
proposition In erect a mill and
mine the ore, it is thought thai
Ihe property will Ue a paying one
from Ihe slarl on account of the
richnc/s «»f the ore.
The ledge is believed to be the
bOUlve of llio rich placer depos
its that are now being mined on
Flat, and though the erosion has
been great in Ihe hills al Ihe head
of Flat, si ill there is no sign of
base metal in I lie quart/ and il is

; Caribou Mill says he will work
immediately on Ihe llnd and will
i spend Ihe coming winter doing
development work, with Ihe idea
of installing a stamp mill in the
spring if conditions warrant.
Th»* C.lifT mine has boon run
