IMPORTANT PLACER
FIND DEVELOPING
ON METAL CREEK
[ Anchorage Times.)

Prospecting on Metal Creek, near
the head Of the Knik River, some 80
miles from Palmer station, has re-
vea.ed prospective rich placer dis
tric. suitable to hydraulic operation,
according to United States District
Attorney Julian Hurley, who returned
70 Anckc--age Tuesday from week 5
hunting trip at the camp of Joe
Rad and Alex Liska
Mr.. Hurley brought back vial
containing about a half ounce OF
coarse gold, some of the nuggets
weighing up to % cents. This gold
was taken from about a hundred pans
secured al random. In one instance
a dollar nugget was found where
the bedrock was exposed. The bed.
rock. says Mr.. Hurley, is approx
mately two yards deep and the pay
appears to be spread over an area
more than a hundred feet in width.
To date approximately II miles OF
claims have been staged on the
>s<ef snich practically e4ssY2s &c
the pay area thus far prospected
From what | saw of the ground
and the paintings taken. this looks
like a coming hydraulic creek equal
to Cache Creek" said Mr.. Hurley,
land it is proposed to begin steps
toward installing hydraulic plant
next summer.
''For some years an old man from
San Francisco has been taking out
an annual stake in the region by
sniping the ground. indicating that
there are places sufficiently rich to
justify shoveling in. However. the
territory appears best adapted to n.y.
draulic. There is a good fall in the
creek and there are no engineering
problems that cannot readily be
solved"
Rady and Liska have been pros
pecting the region for the past two
seasons. and everything has been
kept quiet thus far.
