YIELD GOOD NEWS OK
Every rose has its thorn. Now
comes the announcement that con
flict of interests at Good News Bay
appears destined to defer promised
prospective development.
Grinnel Collins, young geologist,
who passed thru Seward enroute to
Fairbanks, who, with others was
sent out to Good News Bay to in
vestigate platinum deposits, says
nothing resembling a platinum vein
has been discovered on Red Moun
tain. Mr. Collins also says that the
country it not all staked, including
the 2,000 foot mountain and a dis
trict 15 miles further east.
“Reports from prospectors, name
ly Edward Gaston St. Claire, say
that' platinum colors have been
found near Portage Bay, and that
the general fcrmaticn is the same
os that at Red Mountain.”
Mr. Collins also says a total of
506 ounces of platinum is the out
put of the district for the year and
that all this came from Clara and
Squirrel creeks, tributaries of Sal
mon river, except a sma’l quantity
mined on Fox creek.
“Altho the ground is good it is
very limited,” said Mr. Collins, and
costs are very high. Onlv two of the
miners listed are making better
than a mere wage proposition. Tho
platinum has been mined in these
creeks since 1897, no new creeks
placers have been developed other
than the four small creeks head
ing in Red Mountain.
“The Salmon river, into the right
limit of which the platinum pla
cer creeks flow, has been staked
and held since 1927. Altho consid
erable prospecting has been done
on this stream with a view to pos
sible dredging operations, no fav
orable showing qf prospects have
been developed. On Salmon river,
where bed-rock has been reached,
no prospects have been found. It
is possible that with proper drill
ing equipment a pay streak could
be found.
“On Clara and Squirrel creeks
the pay streak is from 20 to 30 feet

wide. The top moss or overburden
is burned off and the ground is
ground-sluiced to a depth of 8 to
10 feet. The bottom two feet and
some of the bedrock is shoveled in.
The values are well disseminated
thru the gravels. In some places
colors can be found 5 to 6 feet
above the bed rock.
“Altho the possible placers im
mediately around Red Mountain
have been staked there is plenty of
possibilities about the country, as
there are many formations nearby
which show great similarity to the
formation of Red Mountain.
While such a thing as platinum
in p’ace, in paying quantities, has
never been found on the North
American continent, there is a fine
possibility of such an occurrence
on Red Mountain.
And while there is plenty of
rcom for prospecting and ground
to stake on Red Mountain, nothing
definite has been discovered to
date.
“The production, as given to me
by those whose names appear be
lcw, is as follows:
Haroldsen and Wicklund, 173

and you do not happen to have a

get it hot and then throw water
