Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Resources of Alaska: Report on Progress of Investigations in 1916 This volume is the thirteenth of a series of annual bulletins treating of the mining industry OI Alaska and summarizing the results achieved during the year in the investigation of the mineral resources of the Territory. In preparing these reports the aim is prompt publication of the most important economic results of the year. The short time available for their preparation does not permit full Office study of the field notes and specimens, and some of the statements made here may be subject to modification when the study has been completed. Those interested in any particular district are therefore urged to procure a copy of the complete report on that district as soon as it is available. This volume, like those previously issued contains both pre liminary statements on investigations made during the year and summaries Of the condition of the mining industry, including statistics of mineral production. It is intended that this series of reports shall serve as convenient reference works on the mining industry for the years which they cover. Lack of funds prevents a visit to every mining district each year by a member of the survey, and therefore the data used in preparing the summary on mining development are in part based on information gleaned from various reliable sources.
