Deadwood Creek - Five 160 acre state mining claims. Deadwood Creek is in the Iditarod district approximately 60 miles southwest of McGrath. It is about 8 miles north of Moore Creek. ADLs 652868, 652869, 652893, 652894, and 652897. From the Alaska Resource Data File at http://ardf.wr.usgs.gov/ardf_data/Iditarod.pdf :

"The Deadwood Creek placer deposit extends for about 1 mile northeast of the sharp bend at the head of Deadwood Creek about 5 miles above its mouth. The placer is at elevation of about 1,300 feet and extends diagonally across the E1/2 section 12, T. 30 N., R. 42 W., of the Seward Meridian. The Deadwood Creek prospect is an unexploited placer gold prospect with shallow overburden that was discovered in the 1930s but never mined (Toivo Rosander and Don Harris, oral communication, 1983). Fine-grained placer gold occurs in fluvial gravel layers, 3 to 10 feet thick, that are covered by 6 to 10 feet of overburden. The placer paystreak as outlined by churn drilling covers a area about 500 feet wide and a mile long. The gold-bearing paystreak is in alluvium of uncertain age (Bundtzen, Laird, and Lockwood, 1988; Miller and Bundtzen, 1994; Miller, Bundtzen, and Gray, in press). Placer gold has also been found in nearby Maybe Creek (ID083). In the early 1980s, a trail was constructed from Moore Creek (ID084) to bring mining equipment to the site and an airstrip was constructed. Small amounts of placer gold were recovered during pit testing and during churn drilling (Toivo Rosander and Don Harris, oral communication, 1983). Reserves - Not determined, but the placer was though to be economic in the 1980s."

The site is still unmined. The five claims cover the mile long placer. Much equipment remains on the site although much is old and in disrepair. There is a bunk trailer on-site that with a little clean up can easily house a couple people. There is a large Lincoln arc welder on the back of the trailer that is probably operable (no promises). There is an old, small bulldozer on-site but no idea if it can be made to run. Lots of hydraulic pipe and a sluice. There is a small storage hut packed full of misc gear and tools. There is an approximately 2000 gallon fuel tank with some diesel of indeterminate condition. There is a running Honda? 4-wheeler and meat wagon. There is a set of tracks for a D9 18A onsite in very good condition. The airstrip was cleared last year and is easily Cessna 206 capable. Deadwood Creek itself is just a little gut of water. This is not for somebody wanting to use a suction dredge. To be mined the muck will have to be stripped so obviously decent equipment would have to be brought in to do the work.

Kougarok River - Two 160-acre state of Alaska MTRSC mining claims located on active channel and buried channel of the Kougarok River, Kougarok Mining District, about 84 miles north of Nome. DOT maintained highway passes through claims, therefore, access from Nome is excellent with highway vehicles. Buried channel was discovered in 2000 during a wildcat drilling program using 6-inch auger and 4.5-inch reverse-circulation on widely spaced drill lines. Hole diameters are too small for reliable valuation, however, ground is shallow enough to drill with numerous larger diameter holes or bulk sample with pits and trenches. Placer gold found over 3,000 linear feet of buried channel. Depth to bedrock is 10 to 18 feet with about 2 to 10 feet of gravel. Value of drilled pay grades up to 0.047 opy or about $30/cy at $800/oz. Buried pay streak may be 150 to 250 feet wide. Potential of commercially dredgeable ground in active channel of river is unknown. Will sell both claims for $50,000. Ideal for Ma and Pa mining operation.
