The constructive and development program now being carried out by the Alaska Gastineau Mining company was decided upon and authorized in July, 1912. and there has been no cessation from the activity since operations be- gan. The essential features of this program included the development of the Perseverance mine, building of the mills. and development of the neces- sary power to run both the mines and the mills.
 Such development and construction entailed the following work in the three divisions which may be describ- ed as fololws:
 The Perseverance Division: Deyel- opment Of the mine by means of drifts, shafts, oreways, ore chutes, haulage system. etc. to that stage where the mine could economically deliver 5000 or more tons of ore per day.

 The building of a transportation sys- tenn three miles in length. Ten thous- and feet of this transportation system being a tunnel known as the Sheep creek Adit tunnel. This transporta- ton system is to handle 5000 and more tons of ore per day and deliver the same from the mine at the Persever- ance to the mills at Sheep creek.
 The construction of an experimental plant and the operation of the same in order to determine the exact metal lurgical treatment of the ore. This had to be accomplished in sufficient time so that the design of the actual mills could be completed during the year 1913.
 Power Supply Division: The build ing of pipe lines, fumes. power houses and the construction of a concrete dam for the purpose of storing water over the short periods so that the whole project would develop an all.year.round power of at least 5000 horsepower which will be transmitted for use in the operations of the mine and mills.
 Sheep Creek Division: Construction of 6.OCO tons per day milling plant and all of the necessary machine shops, boarding houses. woodworking plant, townsite. warehouses, stores. etc, ne- cessary to the economical operation of such milling plant.
 Began in July, 1912.

The report of General Manager B. L. Thane for the year 1913 will show that great strides have been made along the lines of development and construction decided upon.
