'PLACER TIN TO BE " MINED AT TIN CTTY BY EVADA FIRM The once roniantic cry of “Gold!”( | has given way to statements about “strategic ores” and velopments.™ One of the i2etals now in de- mand is tin, Deposits in the Seward Penin- sula are now coming in for atten- tion and the Zenda Gold Mining Company of Las Vegas, Nevada, is yreparing to engage in placer tin production in the Cape Prince of, Wales region. Tin City will be ths-l focal point for the proposed oper-} ations, according to Norman Stines, general manager of Zenda, who passed through Juneau recently af-| ter obtaining options an¢ leases on ' the properties in which the com- | pany is interested. Tin deposits have been proved hy the work of the U. S. Bureau of Mines in the cassiterite-bearing sravels of Cape, First Chance, and other Creeks in the Tin City area. . A dredge will be brought from a| Canadian subsidiary of Zenda and other equipment is on Nome Creek, between Fairbanks and Circle, just off the Steese Highway. The latter plant will be dismantled shipped to the Yukon River where it will be loaded on barges, taken down ‘!he River and across the Bering' {Sea to Tin City, Stine said. This operation will get under way as soon as river navigation opens, in! order that operations may begin at the start of the 1952 season. Stines is not only well known in Alaska in mining circles, but in many parts of the world from Si- beria to South America. He started the large scale gold dredging op- eration at Nome and a similar but larger operation at Fairbanks, both of which are units of the United States Smelting, Refining, and Mi- ning Co. Both operations have been producing placer gold since 1923, and with the exception of the war years, have produced from 60 ml metals, sible de- 75 per cent of the total placer 30ld production in Alaska. Stines lives in Los Gatos, LOCAL VFW POST T0 INSTALL OFFICERS IN PETERSBURG POST Calit. | of Foreign Wars, Juneau post, leave Saturday as a ritual team to install new otficers in the Peters- burg VFW post Saturday evening.
