PLACER MINING WITH
 THE DRAGLINE RIG

w. M. doIlefDach, now repre- sentative of the Bucyrus company. who is now in charge of the drag line excavator used by the Alaska Engineering commission here, re- gently returned from Fairbanks, where he has been Investigating the possibilities of placer mining by the open cut method with the dragline excavator. Mir. Hollerbach is great ly pleased with the prospects of min ing in this manner and believes that 1t will revolutionize the mining game in Interior Alaska, once the method has been given thorough tryout. In speaking of his investigations, MT. Hollerbach says:
 "1n the two weeks that I spent in Fairbanks and vicinity, I made trips to nearly all of the surround ing creeks where placer mines were in operation and talked to the vari- ous operators. The most favored system of mining at the present time is with the Bagley scraper, and while this system is fairly good, it is not efficient, and with the camp being in the state that it is now, with all the big mining gamblers gone and with them all the big money, am of the opinion that efficiency is the biggest factor that will have to be taken into consid- eration. Material can be handled by the Dragline at a cost of 8 cents per cubic yard, allowing 3 cents for car haulage and cents for sluic- ing or gold separation. In the Goldstream district, property there which is now being worked for p cents and 40 cents per cubic yard, can be worked by the excavator for 12 cents, counting depreciation, in- terest, wear and tear,. as we'll as labor, oil and fuel. It will cost about $50 day to operate one of these machines, and the cost of the machine at Fairbanks will stand about $20,000. The machine that have in mind for this style of work would be 75-foot boom excavator, which would handle about three cubic yards per minute if operated stead fly, or about 1440 cubic yards shift. However, as this cannot al- ways be operated steadily in some conditions, l would state that 1000 yards IS a very conservative esti- mate. The most simple method would be loading into cars, exca- vating cut 12O feet wide up to 30 feet deep at each setting of the ma chine; this figure will also allow of going over the cut as many times as possible, allowing the sun to thaw the ground. This machine will handle hard pan as fast as the loose material and will also handle the harder material but with some re- duction in yardage for the shift. The yearly output would then be estimated on the number of shifts the machine was operated. Eigh- teen inches of frost can be handled very nicely when the frost lays on the surface with thawed ground underneath. I have handled frozen material like this without difficulty about miles from Nenana last fall"
 MT. Hollerbach expects to investi- gate the mining properties around Brooks and the Tolovana district in the near future.
