ESTIMATED VALUE OF PLACER GOLD MINED IN ALASKA IN

S497O,OOO $3,63O,OOO
Total

Gold dredging has declined rela lively less than other forms of placer mining, partly because some of the dredges are working very rich ground, partly because the investments in this form of industry are so large that many companies continue operations even with very small profits In 1919 there were 28 dredges operated in Alaska, which produced gold worth $1,360,000; in 1920 there were 22 dredges operated, which produced gold worth about $1,020,000. The relative efficiency of gold dredging compared with other methods of placer mining is illustrated by the fact that in 1920 about 300 men, or 16 per cent of the total placer miners employed in Alaska, produced $1,02O,- 900, or 2S per cent of the total placer gold mined
 In 1920 there were IF gold dredges operated in the Seward peninsula, 2 in the Iditarod and Fairbanks dis tricts, and 1 in the Mount Mckinley (McGrath) district Improvements are being made in the Cache creek dredge, in the Yentna district, and this will probably be operated next year. Plans are also being made for installing two dredges in the Innoko district, and for the exploitation of other dredging ground in the Kuskokwim region. Ow ing to the present high operating costs most dredging companies will consider only placers whose gold con tents is 75 cents or more to the cubic yard. The average recovery Of the dredges in Seward peninsula in 1919 was only 52 cents to the cubic yard and the extensive reserves of dredg- ing ground in the peninsula are con sequently now attracting little lat- tention.
