RESUME OF DEVELOPMENT AND
PRODUCTION REVEALS INI
TIAL STEP INDUSTRY
Production of coal in the fields
adjacent to the Alaska Railroad are
keeping pace with the market de
mands, a survey of the situation,
i recently made at Anchorage, re
i veals. Greater concentrated efforts
are to be made the coming year to
fill all Aalaska coal bins with the
(Alaska product which, if accom
plished, will mean increased reve
nue of many thousands of dollars
to those regions effected.
A report of progress and develop
ment at the mines, was given to
the Gateway by J. J. Corey, coal
! mining official of the Alaska Rail
road department of the interior,
(who for six years has been on the
job, and, from what is well known,
is the man to whom most credit is
given in bringing the industry up
to the present high standard in
output and product.

being shipped to the Alaska Rail
road the company having been suc
essful in securing a large contract.
The company contemplates driv
ing a tunnel and cross-cutting
measures to where a large bed is
located and from which a greater
percentage of lump will be produc
ed; with this lump extracted the
company plans to enter the south
eastern Alaska market in competi
tion with the Washington and
British Columbia coals.
This concern has installed a
shaker screen and from now on will
be in position to ship a lump or nut
coal as the local market demands.
A large boiler, 25 h. p. has also
been installed. This is a horizontal
type boiler and will increase, to a
large extent, the power plant ca
pacity and will also supply the
various buildings on the property.
A new motor will improve the mine
i ventilation. To handle the under
j ground haulage, a horse has been
! purchased.
TO PIONEER
I The Pioneer Coal mine is now
producing and shipping. This pro
perty, known as the old Daugherty
mine, has been the scene of consid
erable activity for months past. A
washer has been completed and a
large boiler, of the locomotive type,
installed to furnish power thruout
the workings. There are a number
of buildings on the ground and liv
ing conditions for the employes are I
very satisfactory. This company j
contemplates producing a fine ;
grade of lump coal.
ROSS HECKEY
The Ross Heckey mine, on Coal
j Creek, in the Chickaloon district,
| has continued its development j
work in a small way for some time
and producing a sufficient amount
;of blacksmith coal for the Alaska |
Railroad as well as other market
| sources. The railroad turns the coal
i into a grade of coking coal which
i excells that which has been and is
still being imported from the out
: side.
uuuiycl wan <x ui i,uuj
'tons has been built; installation of
necessary facilities for producing ,
power for outside and interior use j
is underway and when completed
| the mine will be well equipped to
produce a much larger tonnage
j than in the past. For some time the ;
Icompany has planned the erection j
j of coking ovens which, from the j
|standpoint of cost, will find a read
ier market than the present pro
iduct.
HEALY RIVER
The Healy River Coal Corp., at
Suntrana, the largest producer of
domestic coal, is now equipped with
electric haulage motors and screen- j
jing plants which equipment is
'equal to any first-class equipped
'mine in the states. The fine, big
|bunk-house and wrash rooms are j
steam-heated and living conditions
for the miner are said to be far
better than many modern coal
mines in the states.
Two horizontal boilers were in
stalled a few weeks ago and much
general repairing has gone forward
in the mine proper, as well as on
the outside. The installation of
these boilers will increase the
amount of power and with the elec
tric equipment the company is now
in a position to produce unlimited
tonnage per day. The present pro
duction rate is said to be around
300 tons per day.
THE ESKA MINE
The government property at
Eska has, for the past month, been
thoroughly gone over and repaired,
inside and out, as well as upon the
narrow and standard gauge tracks.
This work is done annually for the
purpose_ojj»placing the mine upon a,
basis for immediate production in
cases of emergency to indepen
dent concerns.
THE JONES-VILLE MINE
The Evan Jones mine at Jones
ville, owned by Anchorage interests,
which has been one of the biggest
factors in steady producers, has 1
been closed down owing to being j
j unsuccessful in obtaining a rail- j
road contract.

ANTHRACITE RIDGE
It is known from data available
that there is semi-anthracite in
huge quantities in the Matanuska
fields which, from analysis, is high
er in heat values and lower in ash
content than that from Pennsyl
vania. While this coal-bearing area
has been somewhat disturbed and
faulty necessary prospect work will
determine that there is sufficient
tonnage to justify development
and the probable expenditure for
construction of a railroad which
would be at least 12 miles long.
