The Simplon Tunnel is one of the

THE DEVELOPMENT OF
ALASKA TIN REGION
UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL
SURVEY WILL MAKE INTEREST
ING ACCOUNT OF TIN REGION.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Washington, ID. c., May 1y.-An in
teresting account of the development
of the York tin region, in Alaska, dur.
ing 1905 is to be included in the forth.
coming progress report of the United
States Geological Survey concerning
its work in Alaska during the past
field season. The report gives a brief
outline of the topography and geology
of the York district and then de-
scribes the tin properties thus far
known, which include both lode de-
posits and placer deposits. Should
the lode deposits seem to carry suf-
ficient value to pay for exploitation,
they will have many advantages over
placer deposits. They can be operated
during the entire year while placer
deposits can be worked only during
the short open season, and the work
is subject then to the frequent delays
and Inconvenience caused by floods,
storms, and lack OF water.
The lode deposits include those of
the Lost River area, the Cape Noun
tain area, the Buck Creek area. and
the Ears Mountain area. On Cape
Mountain prospecting for tin has
been carried on since 1902, and a large
amount of work has been done. Fine
pieces of float tin were found at
many places in the vicinity of Cape
Mountain, but it was not until 1904
that the ore was found in place Dur
ing 1905 there we're further discoveries
of tin ore that made the outlook more
encouraging. So far no producing tin
lodes have been found in the Buck
Creek area. but several small tin bear
ing veins were located last summer
Prospecting on Ears Mountain con-
tinued during the season of 1905.
The only placer tin deposits found
in Alaska that have had any output
are those on Buck Creek. They have
produced to date about 81 tons OF ore
that would average probably 65 per
cent. OF metallic tin. The other
placer deposits described are those of
Grouse Creek, Red Fox Creek, and
other creeks flowing into Loops La
COON, Mint River, and of streams flow
ing from Ears Mountain.
