A Dredging or Hydraulicing
Proposition, Y ankee Creek
I am the principal owner of a block of ground >
on Yankee creek, about seven nuies long, extend
ing from No. 1 Below Discovery down to the mouth
of the creek.
Pay has been located all along for al distanee'of
about three miles from the upper end, and .pretty
well prospected and cross-cut.
The average depth of the!ground !is from'seven
to twentyjfcet. The top is alljblack muck. thafecan
be moved freelv. No rock biggerjthan one’s fist.
The width of the pay. fori a distance of about
three miles, ^is from 100 to 200’ feet. Crosscuting
work indicates that the ground will go from 15
cents to *1 per square foot of bedrock. My belief
is that the,pay will average 50 cents,per foot.
I have a ditch on the ground, three miles long,
together with water rights. The ground is prett>
well cleared. There is also a drain, three miles
long, with the water right. I also havo a water
right on Ready Bullion creek. from which water
can be brought to Yankee creek with a ditck less
than a mile long (4.900 feet), which will give four
sluiceheads-of water, with a pressure or fall of 120
feet; being.1600 feet to the work from the ditch.
Afterdoing away with the muck, there will be
from four to six feet of dirt to handle. The pay
runs mostly in the bedrock of porphyry and slate.
The ground is virgin, only about $11,000 having
been taken out by windlass in prospecting.
Prospecting work during the present winter has
resulted' in finding values that run up to $1 per
square-foot of bedrock.
The-Plumo Dredge Company bas a dredge above
this ground, which has been in operation for the
last three seasons.
The Government road crosses Yankee creek. I
also have a road down the creek that connects with
the Government road.
I am also the agent for owners of ground other
than that held bv myself.
The ground can be worked either with dredge,
drag-line scraper, or by hydraulicing.
I will either sell the ground or give a lease on
it. If the prospect is satisfactory to the buyer, a
cash payment will be expected. A good bargain
will be given to the right party.
For farther information, terms, etc., call on
ground, or write or telegraph me.
ED NOLLETTE,
Tekotna, Alaska.
