GALENA CLAIMS
NEAR GLACIER
NUKA BAY CAMP
ERIC BURMAN AND HANNING
CARLSON, OWNERS LITTLE
LODE GROUP, QUARTZ.
ALL LEADS BEEN STRIPPED
Locate Highly Mineralized Dyke—
Fifty-Foot Tunnel—Mill Tests
Made from Ore.
On the left hand corner and the
left hand limit of Skeen Arm in Nuka
Bay lay the Little Lode Group of
eight claims owned jointly by Eric
Burman and Henning Carlson, which
group is reported as being among the
best showings in the entire region.
Mr. Burman arrived in Seward yes
terday from the ground where he
has devoted the whole summer to
development work, and as a result
has probably, singled handed, ac
complished more than any other
group or group of claims in the
district. Aside from the group men
tioned the partners have two gale
na claims across the divide from
Nuka Bay, high above the dormant
Yellak glacier, the claims being at
approximately 3000 altitude. Two
mineralized bearing dykes were also
staked recently at this point.
Three Leads In Group.
In the Little Lode Group, which
lays about one-half mile from tide
water, there are three distinct leads.
One of these, Mr. Burman stated,
measured 275 feet and runs from 12
inches to six feet in width; the sec
ond lead is 375 feet long with the
vein averaging between 12 inches to
12 feet, and the third lead is 425
feet with the vein running from 12
inches to 12 feet. All these leads
which have outcroppings have been
stripped the full distance. They lay
inside of one another at about 250
feet running parallel between the
best of well defined walls of gray
whack and archalite formation. The
leads all run as straight as a dial and
are shot thru with fissure veins.
Tunnell On Big Lead.
On the 425 foot lead, Mr. Burman
has driven in a tunnel for 50 feet,
feet. From this he expects to cross
cut into the other leads. On the 275
foot lead he has made a cut of about
10 feet. A mill test has been made
from ore taken from this group, the
same averaging from $13 to $15 a
ton. Ample water power is on the
spot, in fact, Mr. Burman said, he
has three sluice heads which will
permit the operation of the property
the year round. With very little ex
pense a road could be constructed
to the tunnel which would have a
grade not to exceed four per cent.
Three Leads, Galena Claims.
On the two galena claims, which
run parallel to one another, with
about 200 feet between, there are
three leads, one of which is one
foot in width, the second three feet
and the third five feet. Two small
cross stringers cut thru all three.
Assays from the galena claims ran
$25 to the ton in gold and from $3
to $4 in silver.
Dyke Carries High Value
One of the two dykes recently fil
ed on carries high grade ore. The
other, which is about 30 feet in
width, runs $4 in gold and seven
ounces in silver.
These galena claims and dykes
are easily accessible, it is stated,
from Nuka Bay, which lays not more
than one and one-quarter miles from
the shore line. A tram line would
solve the problem of bringing the
ore down, Mr. Burman stated, or
winter transportation over the gla
cier However, a mill could be placed
directly on the property for suffi
cient water power is available from
the glacier from which all streams
in the region are fed. And
there is an abundance of the best
spruce timber.
Mr. Burman left Seward for his
claims last March. He plans leaving
for Anchorage next week, where he
may remain for some time. During
the recent visit of Vic Clausen, min
ing scout for the Alaska-Juneau
mines interests, Mr. Clausen took al
most 20 samples of ore from his
claims.
