" The expedition, financed by 1ths Railroad from funds approp- rlated in 1931 for the mlgg. Itum of the mineral resources of the railroad belt, was carried out in co-operation with the "U.

The perty equipped with pack horses and two camp hands, left Craigie Creek in early July and returned by way of Caswell on the Alaska Railroad. Gold Lodes TFraced It has been recognized that the developed gold lodes of the Wil- low Creek district occur in a rain- er narrow belt that runs from the vicinity of the Lucky Shot mine northeastward. Any extension of this belt to the north and east should include the headward ba- | sins of Purches, Peters and Little Willow Creeks and Kashwitan | Rivers “and "it' was thos¢ bmm _that reeelved spe¢ial attention!

All of the producing lodes of the Willow Creek district are quartz veins that occur in this diorite. There is reason to be- lieve that other gold-bearing lodes should occur outside of the rather rostricted area that has so far been productiye. F “Bull” Quartz ! In all of the basins listed above there are localities in which quartz float is abundant. Much of this quartz is, however, glassy in ap- pearance, contains of mineralization, is pegmatic veins, and related to is what is " commonly known as “bull guartz.” W\"W“"W‘Mfl - CENTER PLAYS CORNET le.ss glassy, carry sulfites! of 7 In addition to this barren quartz there are, however, veins of a dL{- ! ferent character. These veins nd copper, and offer much g t- er possibilities of containing gold in' commercial guantities. In the !present investigation only field methods of testing these veins were used, and the assay réturns from samples collected have . not i been received, nor has the micro- scoplc office examination been made.

(Associated Fresa Phote) U ELEL CTEESTTEV &8 (o 00 L SR POUND :NUGGET: 18 FOUND BY MERRILL (Valdez Miner) Did you ever pick up 3 gold nugget weighing’ ‘'moré than a probably just how - elated Ralph pound? ‘If you ‘haye you know; ing claims at Bettles' Bay, and; he did jus that thing ‘on his min- Merrill felt last Wednesday when he brought the nugget to Valdez to prove his find. About four inches long by two inches wide in the widest part, and better than half an inch in thickness, the nugget is practically solid gold, with perhaps two ounc- es of white quartz embedded in the gleaming fellow metal. Its value is between $300 and $400. The finding of the nugget makes one of those stories which so fre- quently crop up in mining coun- tries. ~ Mr. Merrill's mine is not a placer mine, but quartz, and while in the past it has produced some extremely rich ore, no nug- gots of the size of the present find have heen uncovered.

WITH BULL MOOSE cessful hunting trip in the Taku River country, with a bull moose as their chief trophy. A number of hunters have gone after moose¢ in the Taku district this fall, but so far as is' known Gerham and been successful to date in bring- ing back the quarry.
