Kleanza Creek
Placer Proving

Rich in Gold

The great alluvial masses of
Kleanza Creek have been the
source of much concern to pro-
spectors. The discovery of placer
gold on the water level bars and
bed of the present creek always
indicated another source for the
rich float — perhaps, an upper
ehannel deposited during the
great erosion period, when the

heavily oxidized formation ‘over
a north-south course was carried
away, leaving the gold free as
found in the placer wash, worn
and smooth, while small nuggets
have been found just released
from their envelope of pyrite—
yellow, bright and jagged, not
worn in the least, being protect-
ed by its pyrite covering while
travelling. An example of this
deposition is observed in the
quartz gangue of the Golden
Crown, where free gold can be
seen entirely surrounded by pyrt-
ite. All the outerops of existing
veins carrying arsenical pyrite
in this viemnity carry commercial
gold quantities.

At the upper end of Cassiar
Bar, about fifty feet aboye the
present creek level, Geo. Min-
chin and Joe Marchildon, have
been prospecting during last fall
and early this spring and have
cross-cut the channel and opened
up some pits and have blocked
an area of over 100 feet that will
contain about 3000 cu. vds. of
ditt that will average about $8
per yard over a third of the area
and about $4 over the balance,
The bank has an average of 8
feet deep, three feet of which is
good pay,

Their water supply was cut
short owing to seepage, and to
undertake putting on water from
the side creeks will take time,
which they now have under con-
sideration. “Tn the - ‘meantime
they are wheeling the dirt toa
chute and : washing at the creek.

The gold has evidently © come
from .the upper bench, which . is.
about 100 feet higher upiand is
of a coarse order. .
