Marie «| unwittingly had in his office the key to the billion-dollar Blind River uranium field. Its discovery helped make the closing years of his 41-year career as Ontario mining recorder in the Sault Ste. Marie mining district the busiest of his life. When he took office June 15, 1915 mine-hunters followed the lure of gold. Now aged 70, he retires Jan, 26 with uranium beckoning the " prospector Bob Campbell staked cl og Theano point near Mont- real river, some 60 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie. In the rush that followed, 5,000 claims were staked. So far, none has become a mine. The Montreal river rush faded with, the Bling River staking boom e ver § of 1952 when Mr, Miller recorded 7,000 of the claims filed for the 600 square mile area, part of which lies in the adjoining Sudbury mining district. The clue to the Blind River dis- covery was a plece of ore in Mr. Miller's office, labelled "long." He doesn't know who brought it there, or_when, Hotelman Fronectn Aime Breton found e sample was radioactive and traced it to Long township near Blind River but was pio, A when assays showed only traces of uranium. The boom started 1952 after geologist Franc R. Joubin, acting on a theory that chemical action of sur face water had leached out surface uranium, found large deposits un- derground. RECALLS GOLD RUSHES Many of Mr. Miller's memories are of gold. He talks about the Michipicoten rush, which brought five mines, now all closed; the Goudreau rush of 1918: and the Mishibishu flurry of 1924 when 1,000 claims were staked. In his 40 years and seven months in office, he has recorded 48,827 claims. A native of the Soo, he was On- tario"s youngest mining recorder at his appointment, aged 20. At his retirement, he has the longest ser- vice of any. He spent two years in a mining course at the University of Tor- onto and then spent 10 hunting a fortune as a prospector in the SAULT STE.
