WILL SHIP S O D
l
•
When the Admiral Evans returns
from the westward she will call at
Fldalgo Bay to take on a shipment
of five hundred tons of copper ore
from the property of the Alaska Mines
Corporation, marking the entrance of
another mine i nthis district into the
list of producers. The ore will be
sent to the Tacoma smelter.
The Fidalgo property is being
equipped with ore bunkers and a
wharf, which will permit of all steam
ers on the Alaska nin calling for ore
shipments. The present shipment of
ore will consist of mineral taken
from the tunnels during development
work, and is expected at the present
price of copper to net a handsome
return, as much of the ore is high
grade chalcopyrite.
There are a number of other cop
per properties in the Prince William
Sound district which are approaching
the point where they will soon be
come shippers as development work
is being hastened owing to the price
of the metal. All indications point
to the price of copper attaining a
higher figure than for many years,
and is bound to result in capital be
coming interested in the partly de
veloped copper properties.
