Rare Alaska Jade On
Display at Polet’s Store
Gene Joiner arrived in Nome
this week after a difficult sum
mer’s prospecting at Jade Moun
tain. He reports having cut an
estimated 50 tons of jade from
which he selected and brought out
several hundred pounds.
I One piece of jade found during
the summer was of a type never
before found in Alaska mines. A
sample was sent to a firm of ex
pert jade cutters in Germany who
cut it into High Oval Cabochons
and they report it to be of a
type found only in Turkestan and
well known in the Orient. They
suggest it would find an eager
market in Chinese shops in the
States.
The gems are of many colors
and are on display in Nome at
Polet’s Store, along with green
jade paperweights and rough jade
gemstone.
Joiner brought his airplane to j
Nome for repairs as a result of its I
having received a thorough in- i
spection by a curious bear at
Jade Mountain last summer.
