U. S. SMELTING DREDGES
SHUT DOWN FOR YEAR
Dredge on Gilmore Closed down
December 16, Bringing Com
pany’s Mining to Close
For the Season.

more, of which Ted Kremmer is
dredgemaster, dredge operations
of the U. S. Smelting. Refining
& Mining Company at Fairbanks
for 1936 came to an end. it was
said at the local offices of the
company.
The present cold snap forced
successive shutting down of the
big boats at Goldstream. Cleary,
Chatanika and. finally, Gilmore.
It became increasingly difficult
to keep ice in the ponds broken
up and with the cold weather
continuing it was decided to us
eontinuing it was decided to sus
Ilas Long Season
As it does each year, U. S.
Smelting operated far longer
than any other mining project in
the Interior of Alaska. The dredg
ing season was close to nine
months in length, as digging be
gan during the last 10 days of
March.
Closing of the dredges will not
mean immediate reduction in the
working force, it was said. For
the next two or three weeks the
crews will be employed in mak
ing necessary repairs so that the
gold boats will be in first-class
mechanical and structural shape
when the 1937 season opens.
Moving Progresses
Moving of the Fox dredge to
Es.er Creek is going ahead at
full speed. The heavy pieces,
comprising the hull and big work
ing machinery, have all been
landed at Ester. The hull was
cut into five sections, each weigh
ing a hundred tons. Special sleds
were brought in to load the
heavy loads and freighting was
accomplished without any un
usual difficulties.—The Fairbanks
Daily News Miner.
