PLACER TIN TO BE
MINED AT TIN CITY
BY NEVADA FIRM
Thr once romantic cry of "OoUU"|
has given way to nore cjutious
statement,s about base metals,"
■‘strateCTic ores” and “possible de
veloptnents.'
One of the Petals now In de
mand is tin.
Deposits in the Seward Penin
sula are now coming in for atten
tion and the Zenda Gold Mining
Company of Las Vegas, Nevada, is
jreparing to engage in placer tin
production in the Cape Prince r.f,
Wales region. Tin City will be the I
focal point for the proposed oper- \
itions. according to Norman Stines, I
general manager of Zenda, who
passed through Juneau recently at- |
ter obtaining options and leases on
the properties in which the com
pany is interested.
Tin deposits have been proved by
the work of the U. S. Bureau of
Mines in the eassiterite-bearing
•ravels of Cape, First Chance, and
other Creeks in the Tin City area. .
A dredge will be brought from a
Canadian subsidiary of Zenda and
other equipment Is on Nome Creek,
between Fairbanks and Circle, Just
off the Steese Highway. The latter
plant will be dismantled shipped i
to the Yukon River where it will'
be loaded on barges, taken down
the River and across the Bering
Sea to Tin City, Stine said. This
operation will get under way as
soon as river navigation opens, in'
order that operations may begin
at the start of the 1952 season.
Stines is not only well known in
Alaska in mining circles, but in
many parts of the world from Si
beria to South America. He started
the large scale gold dredging op
eration at Nome and a similar but
larger operation at Fairbanks, both
of which are units of the United
States Smelting, Refining, and Mi
ning Co. Both operations have been
producing placer gold since 1923,
ind with the exception of the war
years, have produced from 60 to
75 per cent of the total placer
jold production in Alaska.
Stines lives in Los Gatos, Calif.
