When one of these chickens was killed, a nugget of gold the size of a small pea was found in its gizzard. ‘*There are many evidences of the existence of placer gold in Ontario at the present time. A party of proâ€" spectors were camped in the Michipiâ€" coten region of Ontario on one of the numerous lakes there. A flock of wild ducks had also made their sumâ€" mer home around the shores of that lake. They were of a species that feed on crayfish and other small creaâ€" tures found in the water. When the time was rlght some of these ducks ‘were shot. In the gizâ€" zard of one of them a large number of small gold nuggets were found. ‘‘The gravel and sand have resultâ€" ed from the slow wearing down of the rocks, and where there were gold veins in the rocks the gold was set free and washed downwards with the pieces of quartz and other, material. The gold, on account of its being the heaviest material, has worked down to the bottom of the mass and eolleetâ€" ed in the hollows. By #he constant wear and battering caused by motion of the whole mass downâ€"hill say in the bed of a stream, the gold is mostâ€" ly completely cleared of the quartz and other brittle material sticking to it.â€" Being soft, it is flattened to thin scales and the larger pieces pounded into a smooth rounded shape, the éoveted nuggets of the gold digger. Sometimes large masses of gold, were in sheets or branching forms as they lay in the veins, have been worked out, as the veins slowly weathered away, and have then been hammered into the very large nuggets sometimes found. Nuggets have been discovered with a little of the quartz left in them. ~The very large pieces of ‘"‘float‘‘ silver found in the Cobalt country show the silver battered down on the surface. as are called for when it is necessary to block out ore and prepare for millâ€" ing. The requirements are a strong physique and a capacity for enduring hard conditions. The placergold minâ€" er may work alone or with a partner, and the daily output of *‘dust‘"‘ presents the solid winnings of his labor. In a placer gold country, as in every other sphere of endeavor, the returns for labor yary; but much more widely than in any other, from a bare living or less to a fortune in a day. The fascination which has caunsâ€" ed the great rushes to gold diggings lies in the possibility of coming upon one of those extraordinarily rieh pockets where nature has deposited the product of repeated concentraâ€" tions from large quantities of gravel and sand. underground work in the solid rock. ‘‘*Ontario has not yet produced any gold from placerâ€"diggings, that is, places where gold has been loosened and washed out of the solid veins and gathered in beds of streams under the sand and gravel. ‘*Is there a chanee for placer gold digging in Ontario, the kind that made famous California in 1848, Ausâ€" tralia in 1849, British Columbia in 1858, and Yukon in 1896? As the gold is lying loose under the sand and gravel and more or less mixed with it, placerâ€"gold â€"diggings are the poor man‘s chanee. They require no capital, no expensive machinery, and no longâ€"continued development such Pine Street at First Avenue Timmins Ont, Porcup@ne Steamship Agency All the Best Lines Roofings ‘,‘It might be thought that a counâ€" like QOntario, with such wideâ€" spread 0'oldfields where plenfy of gold veins have been found, would be cerâ€" tain to have many rich gold placers. This seems at first sight certain, whon it is remembered that good pa\.mlu placers may result from the wearing down and concentration of good veins that would not pay to mine. There are now and must have been in the past very large numbers of such lean gold veins in Ontario, not to speak of the richer ones. As discovery goes forward and the goldâ€"bearing .rocks are found to be â€"so widespread throughout the known parts of Onâ€" tario, one must â€" conclude that gold placers did exist to an extent hard to parallel. in any country. Are they still with us? is the question that aâ€" waits an answer. ‘*‘That Ontario prospectors are keenly watching for gold placers is shown by the lather recent discovery of a large tract about eighteen or twenty mlles west of I‘lmmm.s, where the sand and gravel has been found to yield gold in many places. This area looks rather promising. It. does not take much gold‘ to make a paying proâ€" position for a large dredging underâ€" taking. The gold dredge is a large affair that handles the sand and gravel in great quantities. It floats on a stream or canal and eats its w ay along, extracting the gold and pourâ€" ing the sand and gravel behind. The amount per cubic yard that will pay depends on cireumstances, but it \is thought that twentyâ€"five cents will do it in the region mentioned.. That aâ€" mount or more has been found over considerableâ€" parts of : the area in question. ’However the cost of the machmery is a large capital investâ€" mentâ€"and it would not pay to wmake the necessary "outlay unless the aâ€" mount of pdyable “dut” was large enough. ‘‘Drilling in one piece of ground gaveâ€"very promising results, and a large dredging company was shown the assays. They asked what would be the total yield from the ground tested. When told that it was five hundred thousand dollars, they said that was too small to warrant the unâ€" dertaking. ‘‘A large amount of ground in IHilâ€" ary and Keefer townships is being tested byâ€"drilling.. If the results are favorable we may hope to see a gold dredge set to work there. The goldâ€" bearing gravel extends over a, length of about twentyâ€"five miles, ahd if it is found to be payable an important addition to Ontario‘s gold producâ€" tion may result. "A number‘of years ago prospecâ€" tors panned gold out of sand and gravel in Munro and adjoining townâ€" ships a few miles east of \Iatheson There were espeially heavy pannings where a spting flowed from under a long gravel ridge. The small stream of water apparently washed a little gold out from under the ridge conâ€" tinually. This and the general presâ€" ence of small quantities of gold in a large number of places that were trie.d led to the staking of many claims. â€" But further prospecting failâ€" ed to bring to light those rich pockets sought after b) the gold digger, or even values enough to warrant large scale operations. "If Ontario ducks ahd chicks can line their gizzards with gold out of their foragings, there is at least some gold in the province. JOHN L. HUNT, ‘"At a time not very remote from The Foundation .
