Considerable prospecting is in
progress this summer in the Kan
tishna district, according to recent
arrivals in Nenana from that section
of Alaska. It is estimated that there
are at least thirty-five men in the
hills at the present time engaged
in a systematic search for gold and
silver ledges, and more are expected
before the season is much farther
advanced. Several good leads are in i
process of development, a number
of promising prospects have been i
located, and there is at least one j
mine producing ore.
While not a great deal is known i
of the plans of Tom Aitken, who
took out upwards of 800 or 900
tons of galena ore during the past
winter, recent developments seem
to indicate that he plans even more
extensive operations in the near fu
ture, and that he may make his \
headquarters in the Kantishna in- ]
stead of the Kuskokwim. One of
the things that points to such a!
move is the recent transfer of the i
Aitken assay plant from Nixon Fork
to the Aitken property in the Kan-'
tishna, where it has been set up by !
Assayer G. E. Beraud.
More ore, it now appears, was ex-:
traded from the Aitken mine during :
the winter than was anticipated
early in the spring. It was reported j
that not more than 700 tons of ore'
had been delivered at Roosevelt from
the mine, and it was thought that
it might run considerably less than'
that. Members of the crew of the!
steamer Reliance, however, estimate i
that the pile of ore at the landing1
wvu:u wcijiii a;i least suu tons, ana
possibly more. The Reliance took
away 333 tons, and it made a very
small hole in the big- pile of sacks
awaiting shipment. There is be
lieved to be at least 500 tons left.
About the biggest news received
from the Kantishna lately is the an
nouncement that J. A. Haney has
taken a lease and option on the
property owned by Charles McGon
igal. Details of the deal are not
known, but in view of the fact that
it was Haney who induced Aitken
to take over the Quigley property,
it is thought that he will speedily
have operations started on his latest
acquisition. Mr. Haney is a firm
believer in the substantial character
of the Kantishna country, and to
him is due much of the credit for
getting things started.
The usual placer operations will
be in progress in the district this
summer, in addition to the hard
rock activities, and it is possible
that some large-scale mining will be J
inaugurated.
