JAPANESE AFTER
MINE IN alaska
Government Wants to Acquire Anti
mony Property Near
Cape Nome.
NEGOTIATIONS ARE UNDER WAY.
Agents of The Mikado Make Offer to
Joseph Slifcovich in
Oakland.

SAN FRANCISCO, December s.
Joseph Slifcovich, an Alaka mine own
er, living at the Adams Hotel in Oak
land, has received from the Japanese
Government an offer for an anthony
mine, which he owns near Nome. The
Japanese government wants the anti
mony as a component for the paint
used on their war ships, and also to be
used in the manufacture of smokeless
powder.
This offer has come to Slifocvich in
the last few days. He declines to say
how much the offer is, or through
whom it was made. He admits, how
ever, that negotiations for the sale of
the property are under way, and that
the Japanese government is the pros
pective buyer
The property is located on Nome
creeks, twenty miles from the city of
that name. In addition to anthony
it produces ore that will run $25 to
the ton in gold. 1t has not been ex-
tensively worked, however, but enough
development work has been done to ex-
pose large bodies of anthony bearing
ore.
While not a precious metal, anti
mony is one of the most useful of
natures products. 1t is used extern
sively in commerce, being a component
of great many alloys, paints and GER
tain brands of powders.
Slifcovich says that before he left
Nome this year he refused an offer of
$4,000 for this property, made by East
ern parties. He admits his readiness
to dispose of the mine to the Japanese
government or any other party, if the
price is right.

TIN FOUND IN
EASTERN. NEVADA
SOME IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES
ARE MADE BY AN OLD-TIME
PROSPECTOR.

SAN FRANCISCO, December s.
]. j. Burns, an old-time prospector of
this section, came in from the She'll |
bourne district about two weeks ago
with some ore that he could not clas-
sify. He showed it to many well-in-
formed mining men, and they all stated
that it was new to them. Some of them
pronounced it anthony or specular
iron. That it was ore all were con-
WINGED, on account of it's weight and
because metal could be seen all through
it.
Finally, it came under the obser-
walton of Cornish miner, who stated
that it did not come from this coun-
try because it was rock tin, and ore
of that character had never been found
in this country.
This put Mr.. Burns to thinking, and
he called ON d. c. Mcdonald, who is
has an eye open for anything that is
good.
Early on the following day Burns
and Mcdonald hit the trail for the new
camp, and returned with pieces broken
from the ledge, which is stated to be
100 feet wide and cropping out for 5000
feet. They returned in a few days
with many samples, several of which
were sent to San Francisco for CLASH
fication and few days later they re-
ceived the information that the ore
carried tin ranging in value from II
to 80 per cent. The ore also carried
3-S per cent wolframite and some
tungtsen.
While on the ground they located
twenty-five claims, in five of which
William Burke owns a half interest.
The ore is new metal to the mining
men of this section, and they are all
at sea about it. The only tin hereto
fore discovered in this country was IN
the Black Hills, and it was what is
known as stream tin. But as Nevada
has produced almost all of the known
metals, why not tin as well?
The Tin belt is in the Shellbourne
district, about twelve miles from Mum
cy, and is accessible over a good wagon
road from that place, which brings II
within easy access over the new toll
road across the range to the railroad
at McGill.-Ely Record.
