Mine Info

Satelite View

MRDS mine locations are often very general, and in some cases are incorrect. Some mine remains have been covered or removed by modern industrial activity or by development of things like housing. The satellite view offers a quick glimpse as to whether the MRDS location corresponds to visible mine remains.

Comments

Comment (Workings): Workings / Exploration = The mine symbol shown on topographic map is the only indication of mining here.

Comment (Reference): Primary Reference = Gulkana D-2 topographic quadrangle

Comment (Geology): Geologic Description = The mine is on the south bank of a low-gradient tributary to the Chistochina. It is about one-quarter of a mile west of a winter trail into the Chistochina mining area in the Mt. Hayes quadrangle. This seems an unlikely location for a barrow or gravel pit and there is no other record of a lode or placer deposit here.
