STEWART SAYS MINING
IS ON THE UPGRADE
JUNEAU—Mineral production in
Alaska this year probably will ex
ceed the $18.CCm:,000 nark of last
season, judging from present pro
duction rate in the Interior and
Westward, according to B. D. Stew
art, Territorial Mines Commissioner,,
who has returned from his .annu%}
field trip.
New equipment capable of greater
production at lower cost has been
one of. the greatest boons to mining,
the commissioner reported, and many
properties which have been worked
in the past by more obsolete methods
are now turning out pay dirt in siz
able quantities due to installation of
modern mining machinery.
“There is more production and de
velopment in placer mining than I
have seen in years," Mr. Stewart
said, “hut there is still a lack of
prospectors. There is little new dis
covery and there continues to be a
great field for the prospector.”
The cor, r i sioner found oui
s*ar.dlr - : - p*ospects and oper
. g Creek in the Ruby
.i ti n I tiers Creek n the Cache |
ri :t, on Dead wood Creek
n C r:Ie district, where a new
r.d~e has \st been installed on
% M» Cr-rh in the Saleha district.
Ike Fairbanks Exploration Co. is
branching out in the Tenderfoot and
Goodpaster districts and altogether
placer operations are particularly
bright, he said.
Lode mines are showing much ac
tivity and showing up well, the com
missioner found, many at work now
sinking to deeper levels. The old
Load - Bu'lion on the Ester Creek
dome has been taken over by the
Bartholomew Oil Company and is
being worked and a large amount of
r.cw, modern equipment is being pot
in at 22 properties.
As a result of this mining activity,
business is in a healthy condition
throughout the area, and Fairbanks
:s showing particular improvement.
Seme 40 new houses have been built
or are under construction there this
summer, he rcrorted. Anchorage
also is feeling sharp business in
crease, as are most of the cities and
communities of the Interior reg.en.
