CHEMIST AND MINERALOGIST
AT ALASKA COLLEGE ASSISTS
PROSPECTORS
There is apparently an upward trend
in mineral development along the
Railroad Belt and in Interior Alaska
generally. This is obviously true as
far as gold dredging developments are
concerned, but it is also true of the
hard-rock mining field.
Mr. Paul Hopkins, analytical chem
ist and mineralogist for the U. S.
Bureau of Mines, who is stationed at
the Alaska College under a co-opera
tive agreement, performs the bulk of
the commercial assay work for pros
pectors and miners along the Railroad
Belt and Interior Alaska generally.
He also does much work which origi
nates from various points in South
eastern Alaska.
The work, received for the period
covering July 1 to December 31, 1926,
shows a decided increase over the cor
responding period for 1925. These
figures are of interest for they form a
fair barometer of the activity in this
phase of the mineral industry.
The figures are as follows:
July 1 to July 1 to
Dec. 31, Dec. 31,
1926
1925
365
Custom assays made_516
Official assays and an
alyses . -339 318
Duplicates and miscel
laneous _154 40
Identification tests _241 216
Letters written -354 327
During the period of July 1 to De
cember 31, 1926, the following deter
minations were made in connection
with the above figures:
Alcohol 1, antimony 56, arsenic 12,
calcium 6, copper 51, gold and silver
772 (requiring 1,158 fusions or scorifi
cations and 796 cupellations), iron 4,
lead 38, mercury 14, molybdenum 1,
platinum 13, silica 2, tin 2, water 15,
zinc 22.
Identification tests of minerals are
made free of charge. An assay for
gold and silver is $1.00 and an addi
tional dollar is charged for each addi
tional metal assay.
