J. E. Hammell Says Discoveries Would Have Been Impossible “'lthout Airplanes. Belcher Island Iron Ore Options DrOpped. Northern Aerial Mineral Exploration, Ltd. the pioneer organization to utilize airplanes in the search for minerals, has justified its existence and accomp- lished what it set out to do. says J. E. Hammell, president. in his statement to shareholders in the annual report for the fiscal year ended October 31. The company has made discoveries and ac- quired a great deal of promising ground in the Coppermine River. Great Bear Lake and Patricia districts. where such discoveries would be practically impos- sible without airplanes. In a section to the south a trench was put down to 14 feet and only one wall was reached. Two bands of ore were encountered. however. one having a width of three feet 11 inches and assaying 25.57 per cent. copper and the other one foot in width assaying 35.04 per cent. A diamond drill was trans- ported to the property with sufficient “Our pioneer work," he says. “has been primarily responsible for calling attention to the great mineral poten- tialities of certain sections of the North, with the result that these areas ap- pear to be on the threshold of great mining developments and intensive ex- ploration.” of the ground thoroughly, the com- pany’s crew was successful in discover- ing a vein containing radioactive min- erals and comparatively high-grade silver. It is the intention of the di- rectors to turn the discoveries to as profitable an account as possible in view of existing conditions. Iron Option Dropped Mr. Hammell further states that in spite of general financial conditions which have not been favourable for the continuance of work on the Pickle- Crow claims, it is anticipated that the development of this property will com- mence in the early future. The stock interest in the Belcher Islands iron deposits is still retained by the com- pany, but, as the utilization of these deposits for any practical purpose was considered too far in the future, it was deemed advisable to drop the option on this ground. nage of high-grade ore. The ground staked in the Great Bear Lake region is favourably situated in relation to the discoveries of pitch- blende and silver already made there, Mr. Hammell states. While there has not been sufficient time to prospect all Mr. Hammeil stem: “Now we have made the discoveries referred to above, on which it is our intention to concen- trate for the next season or two. it may be in the best interests of economy to dispose of our hangars and flying equipmentâ€"thus eliminating the neces- sity for maintaining an expensive aerial personnelâ€"and to purchase our flying only as and when required.” This question is at prmnt receiving atten- tion. trate for the nextâ€" season or two, it!

G. Duncan, director of exploration. in his report states that during the sea- son of 1930 prospecting was carried on in Northern Ontario, Northern Quebec, and Northwest 'Rrritories.
