PRESIDENT HAYDEN TELLS
OF THE ALASKA G A STINE A U
In reviewing the Alaska Csold Mines
Co.’s property President Hayden just
recently returning to New York from
a trip of inspection says: “There has
been but one disappointment, both to
the stockholders and the officials of
the property, and that is that the as
say value of the ore has not been as
high as that shown in development of
the property before its purchase and
which was actually being obtained at
that time. When the property was
purchased the mine had been opened
bv what was the most natural method
of development, viz.: the <lrivi:ig of
a crosscut tunnel from the Silver Bow
basin where water power was avail
able and where there was a natural
mill and townsite, to that point in the
middle of the mountain where such a
tunnel driven perfectly straight would
cut and cross the vein. Immediately
on passing into the vein the property
was opened up along it both to tin*
east and west for a distance of some

2000 ft. and stoping operations were
begun. From 1007, in a small mill j
which could only run during the sum
mer months on account of inability to
get power, nearly 400,000 tons of ore
were treated, which had an average
grade of .$1.80 corresponding to a re
covery under our present methods of;
milling of better than $1.55 per ton..
From the best engineering and geolo-j
gical advice which we can possibly get j
there is absolutely itothing to indi
cate that the ore body where struck
by this tunnel should be any better or
any worse than it should be cither
above ,x>r below this level or in other j
parts of the ore zone longitudinally. |
We furthermre know that in crossing
through the vein to the shaft from
the new Sheep Creek tunnel, known
as the 13th level, 300 ft. below ori
ginal openings, we encountered in
large bodies as high grade ore as has
been found anywhere in the mine.
We furthermore know that the Tread
well mine operating across the chan-j
nel has found lean places on certain
of its levels and has at much greater
depths than we have now reached
again come into good values. We also
know that the Alaska-Juneau proper
ty immediately adjoining ours on the j
west end and in the same lode system ^
has cut these ore zones at some 300ft. I
lower thon our deepest level. The
continuation of development indicates
that the ore exists in a number ol
separated shoots, some of which are
materially higher in grade than
others. The proper opening . of the
property for most economical1 mining
requires that the upper levels be pre
pared first and the developments in
these upper levels of the west portion
of the mine have been disappointing
as to assay values. This has been due
largely to the necessity of opening
stopes before time could be taken for

elaborate development, and of includ
ing in them greater widths of ore zone
than would have been done had we
understood the character of the ore
bodies as well then as we do now.
This early preparation of stopes has
resulted in an accumulation in them
of some 3,000,000 tons of broken ore
and it is impossible now to go into
the tops of these stopes and narrow
them down for the purpose of improv
ing the grade. As new stopes are
opened on the levels below, this can
and will be done, but it cannot be done
until the comparatively low grade ore
now broken has been drawn away;
and as the average of all of thio
broken ore is such as to return a pro
fit when ruii through the mill the only
logical and natural thing to do is to
so mill it. In the meantime other
areas of better grade ore have been
and are being developed to the extent
that we now are deriving some bene
fit from those easterly sections, but
due to structural conditions of the ore
bodies there we have not been able to
produce from them as rapidly as we
hoped, and without sacrificing large
and valuable ore bodies, cannot ven
greatly increase the grade of ore now j
going through the mill until the large
amount of low grade ore alieady
broken in the westerly sections has
been disposed of. Summing the whole
situation up, it is fair to say that the
results up to date have been some
what disappointing, but viewing it in
the light of the more perfect informa
tion we now have, the financing, de
velopment and equipment of the
property on its present showing and
to the presnt extent is fully justified
from every viewpoint, and the name
people who have been responsible for
these things would do the same thing
if they saw the property as they see
it today instead of as they saw it in
the beginning.”
ALASKA’S GREAT ItECOKI)
The final statistics covering the
trade with Alaska for the fiscal year
ended June .‘10, 1916, are illuminating, i
Not only did the territory reach and
exceed the estimate of $9o,000,000 as t
the valuation of its total commerce,
but for the first time in its history
it exceeded Hawaii’s total and came
within $800,000 of jumping ahead of
the Porto Rico total, thus occupying
first place. The standing of noncon
tiguous territories for that year were
Porto Rico first, Alaska second,
Hawaii third and the Philippines a
very bad fourth. Guam and Ameri
can Somoa represent so little in the
total that they are not worth mention
ing. For the calendar year Alaska
has already taken first place, for with
the nine months ended September ’’*0,
the Northern territory has far out
stripped either Porto Rico or Hawaii.
This is a remarKable showing when it
is considered that both Porto Rico and
Hawaii are classed among the world’s
greatest producers of sugar.—Rail
