STRIKE HIGH GRADE
GOLD ORE AT VALDEZ
| Five thousand dollar ore, not «
mere handful! or pocket, but « sub j
I sUntliil deposit, is the result of de-1
I velopmeut work by K. E. McDonald
| on his property near Slump Bay. Mr.
I McDonald brought to town a few days
ago samples from the new strike,
which show, in addition to much free
gold, nagyagite, a telluride ore car
rying high values in gold. Several
assays had by Mr. McDonald gave re
turns, the lowest of which was $5,600
per ton and the highest $6,000. show
ing that the ore runs very uniform
In value throughout the pay shoot.
I So far as developed the shoot runs
about fdurteen inches In width, and a
considerable quantity has already
been blocked out. Mr. McDonald has
been working this property for several
i years, and has taken out considerable
j gold with the small mill which he
j has operated In connection with the
; mine. A short time ago, being satis
fied that the mill returns were not
commensurate with the value in the
ore, he had an analysts made of the
ore, which revealed the presence of
the tellurlun, and gave the value of
the tailings from the mill at better
than $3,000 per ton. With further de
velopment both the free gold and the
telluride ore Increased In quantity,
bringing up the total value to the
figures given above. The opening up
of this ore body, of a character new
to this district, leads mining men to
believe that further deposits of this
ore may be uncovered, particularly
In the district about Shoup bay, if
not elsewhere in the district, and add
materially to the known gold re
sources of the Valdez district.
Another Incident showing the value
of the gold quartz deposits of the
Valdez district was the bringing in
this week by Chris Peterson and j
Frank Ilrown of 376 ounces of gold1
bullion from the Ramsay-Rutherford!
■ mine nesr the Valdez glacier. Thisi
i cleanup was the result of the work;
i of three men for a period of less than j
1 thirty days, and is the second to bei
‘ brought in within a short period. In;
addition to taking out this quantity j
of the yellow' metal, Mr. Brown states
that, enough ore has heen blocked out
to enalde them to work a frV of
I five men for the next two years,
i Messrs. Brown and Peterson, who
i are working the property under lease,
I arc contemplating the installation of
an improved power plant In the
near future, which will enable them to
i largelv increase their output.—tVal
