Alfred II. Brooks of the geolog- teal survey has just issued a report which will be of particular inter- est to the miners of Alaska. Some extracts are taken from 1t which appear below, but the complete re- port may be obtained by addressing the Director at Washington.
 Thousands of gold seekers who joined In the mad rush 10 the Klon- dike hurried over ground contain ing that very treasure which they expected to find at the end of their journey. Many Of these gold seek CTS. indeed, must have passed in sight of the quartz vein near the Valdez Glacier which 12 years later was developed into what is now known as the cliff mine. This vein mas been averaging about $50 a .an, mostly in free gold with little change in depth, the concentrates running about seven per cent and carrying about s1OO Sorth of gold to the ton. This is probably a fair measure oi the gold content of the ores ot the district. though many property owners report contents ranging from s75 to S200, or even higher. The Cliff mine became pro- ductivc in 1910 and proved to be very profitable. Its success greatly stimulates prospecting by local min CTS and also attracted the attention of nouresidents. who quickly recog- uized the possibility Of developing here new mining district, As a result, several hundred lode claims were staked and considerable devel- opment work was undertaken fin 1910 and 1911.
 The most encouraging feature of the district is the fact that one lode has been profitably mined to a depth Of about 400 feet and for about 500 feet along the strike. So far as can be seen, there are no geologic conditions at the Cliff mine which gre not found elsewhere in the region. Although, as in all mining camps, much the larger nun Der of the claims staked give little promise of developing into mines yet number show results that full ly justify further exploitation. The facts at hand indicate that it will be district Of small, rich veins rather than of large low-grade deposits Some larger deposits Of low grade ore which were not visited are. how ever, reported to occur on the south side of the bay.
