ALASKA MINES
REPORT SHOWS
OPERATI
Alaska Gold Mines annual report
shows that during 1919 the gold recov
ery amounted to 66 cents a ton as com
pared with 88 cents per ton in 1918,
which is self-evident proof, the Boston
News Bureau says, that under pre
vailing conditions there can be no
protit in continued operation of the
property.
While the operating loss for 1919 is
* scheduled at $273,397, the actual cash
loss only amounted to $49,054, “this
being due to credit accruals from pre
paid development reserves set up in
the past, large tonnages having been
drawn from ore reserves upon which
a portion of the mining costs had pre
viously been paid.”
President Hayden states that the
United States production of gold in
1919 amounted to $58,500,000, a de
crease of 40 per cent from the 1915
production of $101,000,000. The value
of production recovered by the Alaska
Gold Mines Company in 1919, amount
ing to $1,474,000, represented approx
imately 2V2 per cent of the total Unit
ed States production. During its five
years of operation, the company has
produced a total of $7,503,740.
Mr. Hayden adds: “Your company
can continue operation only so long
as advantage can be taken of extract
ing ore already broken in slopes or
preparing for mining, on which devel
opment and breaking costs have been
previously paid either -wholly or in
large part, thereby recovering the
amount invested in the development
and preparation for mining of such
ore reserves.” <
At the Alaska Gold Mines annual
meeting John D. Dillon was elected
as director in place of K. R. Babbitt,
deceased.
* SURVEYS TO BE RUN
THROUGH UNEXPLORED
INDIAN RESERVATION
-- :
HELENA, Mont., June 5 (by Asso
ciated Press).—A crew of survey men
operating under J. Scott Harrison, ]
assistant United States supervisor of ■
surveys, and commanded by George
F. Rigby, a local surveyor, is soon to
attempt what is believed to be one of
the most arduous pieces in the annals
of America. They will re-run the
entire line of the Flathead Indian
reservation, in the western part of the
state
The line was run many years ago
and needs retouching, it is said. The
work will take the survey crews in
to some of the wildest portions of the
American continent and they often
will be several days’ travel from the
nearest town. They will take twc
pack trains and light tents and will
break camp each day, as they move
forward, relying on the pockers for
food and trusting to luck, later in the
summer, for water.
The work lies in the heart of the
forest fire area and the crews will

practically unexplored.
