Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Journal of the Federated Canadian Mining Institute, Vol. 2: Being the Proceedings for the Year 1897
The creek can he travelled for the first eight miles by a good waggon road, which is to be extended in the spring, and beyond that there is a good trail for a long distance up the creek. All along the bed cf the stream, wherever the current was not too strong, placers have been worked. The most important of these lie below the canon, at which point bed-rock was reached.' The auriferous character of the stream was not known until 1886. In the following four years were extracted. It is not, however, with a description of placer mines that I propose to occupy your time, but with some notes on gold-bearing lodes.
