Possibilities Of

the riffles but not to stay w ith the
cleanup.
I am siting all this as evidence
to prove that the -ch.^t forma
tion is the true source oi our plac
er gold on Seward Peninsula.
I have made a personal study
of this feature for over a third
of a century, not by theory but
by practice and hard labor, and
I unhestitatingiy state that I
believe Seward Peninsula is the
most extensive field of low grade
ore deposits in the world.
1 believe what I have said of
this section also holds good in all
other gold producing areas of
Seward Peninsula, as they are
all practically contiguous from
one side of the Peninsula to the
other, and from the eastern end
t.o far into the tin fields on the
western point, which cover an
area of over 400 square miles,
with large areas of placer tin.
the richest of which have been
and are now being mined.
Nmerous ores outcrops hav<
been discovered in that sectini.
but I have yet to see one Intelli
gent move made to develop the
ore depisits. Tin has been dr
covered within 40 miles of Nome.
A splendid showing of bismuth
to be seen wiihin 135 miles of
Nome. Graphite of unquestionable
quality of enormous tonnage in
sight and easy of access from
Grantley Harbor—highest grade
of iron ore running into the mil
lions of tons within easy reach
of salt water—copper outcrops
scattered all over the Peninsula.
Marble of the finest in the world
—lead, zinc, cinebar, mica, sil
ver have been found in various
places.
A very extensive deposit of
talc, equal to the finest grade in
the world washed by the waves

Peninsula. Other products could
be mcT.'.ored but I believe the
foregoing will suffice.
Seward Peninsula has an area,
of apprc ximately 100.000 square

If y. j expect the prospector
to sp nd his life in finding a good

for every dollar you invest, wc
don't like you, but if you are a
man of vision and intelligent
courage, and are looking for in
