BIG SEASON IN
1933 IN MINING
The Arctic Circle Exploration Co.
has budgeted $2,000,000 for its Can
dle investments, and last year alone
expended a half-million of that sum.
A new power house was built in
1934 and two dredges were in opera
tion. The coming season will see
three of them at work. The first
freight boat, due the middle of July
will bring stocks and general sup
plies, not only for the Arctic Circle
Company, but for smaller outfits and
independents as well, says the Sew
ard Gateway in a recent issue.
The camp is booming, said Dun
can L. MacDonald, a 33-year veter
an of the region, and more expansion
and bigger work is looked for in
1935. Mr. MacDonald, a widower,
was in the city between arrival of
the passenger train and departure
of the Steamship Victoria, and had
with him his 12-year-old daughter,'
Mary Frances.
They are on their way to Hillsdale,
Michigan, where the little girl will
make her home with her grandmoth
er Mrs. A. W. Bishop. Mr Mac
Donald will return to his Candle
gold mines.
The Arctic Circle Exploration &
Mining Co., under the management
of James J. Keenan of Nome, has
bought out the Keewalifl Mining Co.
and this year will employ more than
200 people.
A ditch 30 miles in length, and fed
from mountain streams, is in use
and additional water will be avail
able, pumped from the creeks by
diesel units. Last year one unit-was
used, but another will be installed
the forthcoming season.
Transportation to base camp and
redistributions are made by tractors,
a work that was formerly carried on
by dog sleds. There are many in
dependent operators, and expansion
by those in the field and newcomers
are expected to swell the population
of the district and create an era of
unusually lucrative activity.
Mail the Nome Daily Nugget to
your friends, and let them know
about the re-building of Nome.

—
Heavy shipments of hydraulic pipe
for operations of the Fairbanks Ex
ploration Company in its work of
stripping Ester and other creeks of
muck in preparation for dredging
have been passing through Anchor
age on the freight trains recently.
Many car loads of this equipment
have been landed at Seward and
taken to Fairbanks and vicinity.
The Fairbanks Exploration Com
pany expected to get some of its
dredges into operation this week,
and has a great season ahead. The,
News-Miner of March 18th, says:
Gold dredges of the Fairbanks Ex
ploration Company will soon swing
into action, the offices of the com
pany announced. Ice-cutting crews
started working on all dredge ponds
and as it ordinarily takes about a
week or ten clays to clear the ice
from the ponds, several dredges will
probably begin digging between the
17th and 20th of March. This will
be one of the earliest seasons in the
history of the company.
Having hired about 75 or 80 men
since the first of March, the com
pany now employs from 140 to 150
persons.
The Chatanika and Cleary mess
houses opened in February. Others,
including those of Goldstream and
Ester, opened since the first of
March, all of them being in use
now. Small crews are at all the
dredges getting them ready to start
operations.
Four prospect drills arc at work.
One is at Cleary and three are in
the Ester district. The first drills
started February 21. There are also
six drills driving holes for thaw
points. These drills started Feb. 22.
Construction work is going for
ward on the Chena pump station to
double its water-supplying capacity.
The water will be used for stripp
ing at Ester and Cripple Creek. At
Ester stripping work will be double
what it was before.
Preparations for opening the Da
vidson ditch will not be started until
April
