A Dredging or Hydraulicing
Proposition, Yankee Greek
*1 am the principal owner of’a block of ground
on Yankee creek, about seven nones long, extend
ing from No. 1 Below Discovery dowu'to the mouth
of„the creek.
Pay hasibeen located all along for a distance 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 twenty feet. The top is all black muck, that can
be moved freely. No rock bigger than one’s fist.
The width of the pay, for 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 thatjthe pay will average 50 cents per foot.
I have a ditch on'the ground, three miles long,
together with water rights. The ground is prettv
well cleared. There is also a drain, three miles
long, with the water right. I also have a water
right on Ready Bullion creek, from which water
can be brought to Yankee creek with a ditch less
than a mile long (4,000 feet), which will give four
sluiceheads of water, with a pressure or fail of 120
feet, being 1600 feet to the work from the ditch.
After doing away with the muck, there will bo
from four to six feet of dirt to handle. Tho pay
runs mostly in tho bedrock of porphyry and slato.
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 value-' that run up to $1 per
square foot of bedrock.
The Flume Dredge Ompuny has a dredge above
this ground, which lias been in operation for the
last three seasons.
The Government road crosses Yankee creek. T
also have a road down the creek that connects with
tho Government road.
I am also the agent for owners of ground "other
than that held by 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 tho prospect is satisfactory to the buyer, a
cash payment will be oxpected. A good bargain
will bo given to the right party.
For further information, terms, etc., call on
ground, or write or telegraph me.
ED NOLLETTE,
Tokotna, Alaska.
