ARRIVAL AT NOME TELLS
OF DOINGS AT INMACHUK
John Hoyer. winter manager of
the Cordova Mining Co. camp on the
Inmachuk, arrived in Nome recently
in company with Captain Roald A
mundsen had his team of five dogs.
Mr. Hoyer made the trip from Deer
ing and made the trip to Nome by
the way of the Kougarok, Iron
Creek. U. S. Roadhouse and Nome.
While no particular difficulty was
encountered along the route the
trails proved hard traveling. The
snow was soft and deep, in places
the crust was just thick enough to
hold the dogs for a few minutes
: and then would break thru, caus
ing the teams much distress.
Three men are employed about
1 the Cordova camp during this win
i ter doing assessment work and some
prospecting and will have the camp
in readiness in the spring for the
summers operations.
The Cordovado Company this last
year completed its 40 mile hydraulic
ditch and used it for the first time
in their mining operations. The
ditch has a carrying capacity of
1100 miners inches and from the
time that the water was first run
thru until the end of the season the
mining operations were amply sup
plied with water.
Notwithstanding the lateness of
the season the company reports a
! very satisfactory mining period.
■ About 20 men were employed dur
; ing the summer, using a hydraulic
elevator to recover the gold.
Supplies for this camp are freight
ed from Deering, a distance of 20
miles, using a team of horses own
ed by the company. During the
winter months the bulk of supplies
are hauled to the camp, for at this
time the trail permits heavier loads
being carried with less trouble and
expense.
Work this last summer was pros
ecuted on No. 2 below Pinnell, on
the Inmachuk River and this next
summer work will be continued, be-1
ginning where last summer’s opera
tions ended. This last summer many
delays were experienced due to
much dead work being necessary
to place the mine in shape for oper-'
ations, however, the coming year
will be free from these delays and j
from all indications the net returns!
should be most satisfactory.
Regarding operations being con- j
ducted by other miners in the Inma
chuk district Mr. Hoyer states that
Escholt Brothers and a small crew
hydraulicked on the river.
Kileen. Henry and Black hydrau
•licked on the Dashiey group.
D. Hogendohu hydraulicked on j
Discovery gulch.
Frank Knapp and Henry Bohru
are taking out a dump on the river,
employing a crew of six men.
H. L. Stull and three men are
drifting under the lava deposits |
on the benches of the river.
Frank Fellows and partner are
drifting thru the same lava deposit,1
hoping to discover pay in the gravel
underlying.
With reference to the lava we are
informed that it is of a thickness
running as deep as 160 ft, under-:
neath which is found a gravel depos
it of 15 ft deep carrying good
prospects. Great faith is placed in
the future developments of the
gravel deposits and those engaged
in its prospecting feel sure that the
pay is there.
An air drill is used and then dyna
mite employed to blow out the lava
in sinking the prospect shafts.
The Valien Coal Mine on the Ku
gruk River is being operated by
Valien and a few men. The coal is
placed in bunkers and those who!
purchase the coal employ the horse
teams of Frank Knapp in hauling
the coal to its destination. Candlei
and the entire surrounding country;
is now using the coal and finds it
a cheap and satisfactory fuel.
