13720 Trench–more recently a garbage dump and place to dump dead goats–on old working on bench at Ifshaygh.
13721 Bedouin camp on main wadi near Ifshaygh. In the foreground, note mining pits across the old gravels in the alluvial fan at the mouth of the stream coming down from Murrayjib

13729-13730 Aerial shots down on the Murayjib mine and Bilwi.
13731-13735 Aerials shots down on the old placer workings at Ifshaygh. Note the pock marked surface developed from the old mining pits; the contrast between the modern gravels and the old mined gravels; and the bedrock dam across the mouth of the valley coming down from Murrayjib
13736 Dam, village, and agricultural area in main Wadi about half way between Yanbu and Murrayjib.
13737 Rick Carten sitting on pit the French put in on the old placer workings. From air can see pock marked surface but not very evident on ground. On calley coming down from the Murayjib mine.
13738-13741 More aerial shots of the alluvial fan at Ifshaygh with its pock-marked surface caused by mining by the Ancients. Note bedrock ridge that dams the front of the valley and backed up the auriferous gravel.

13760-13763 Aerials shots down on the mines at Bilwi. Camera acting up but can still get a good idea of not only the large amount of surface trenching but the pervasive work in the placers in the valley below the mine and on the hillsides.
13764 Street scene in Yanbu early one morning.
13766 Lower part of the valley draining the Murrayjib mine. Mined at least locally.
13767-13768 Panorama looking west over the lower part of the valley coming down from the Murrayjib mine. Mined locally and can nicely distinguish the modern channel gravels from the old auriferous gravels that were mined from open pits.
13769 Interesting picture: in distance can see our helicopter and Tom Wolters coincidentally facing a Bedouin cutting down a tree in the valley. with a chain saw. He left very very shortly after Tom landed — very fast.– when the King’s helicopter dropped out of the sky and landed 100 m away.
13770 Another as 13,767 but lower down on the hill.
13771-13776 Group of shots taken while Rick Carten and I were looking at Ancient workings on area of quartz veining about half way between Murrayjib and Ifshaygh.
13777-13789 Short visit to the Ancient mine at Umm Huffra with Rick Carten. Abundant quartz veins probably related to top of a small granitic body. Mined from small glory hole. Note flock of sheep that wandered by while we were there.
13790-13791 Not sure where these aerial shots taken but probably on coastal plane in lower part of Wadi Farah or between there and Yanbu. Granitic bodies (?) sticking up through the sand.

14027-14029 Landing at Petropavlovsk airport and another view of our helicopter [FERUS]
14030-14032 State Department delegation in front of the Central Hotel in Khabarovsk. Cold day; we’d been delayed in getting our flight for hours, and among other things we were watching the open manhole in front of the hotel, an open manhole that had stayed that way for more than a day. [FERUS]
14033-14038 Shopping at the market area in Khabarovsk one weekend. Amazing variety of things for sale, most of which the average Russian can’t afford. [FERUS]
14039 Imposing building in Khabarovsk that included a “military” department store on the ground floor that had slightly more for sale that the other stores in town. [FERUS]
14040 Back in Khabarovsk; killing time waiting for our plane that was delayed for 12 hours and walked along the Amur River on a bitterly cold day. [FERUS]
14041-14051 Various street scenes in Magadan. Cold day as I remember. Note the Orthodox church in Magadan in 14,047-14,048; just newly completed and looks very, very Russian—but also very small for a town of this size. [FERUS]
14052-14055 More buildings and street scenes in Magadan. [FERUS] [FERUS]
14056-14057 About at the end of our trip. Here a short trip to the Karamken mine…which didn’t amount to much. Just walked around a bit after a long drive. [FERUS]
14058-14061 Taken during a tour of Ardialiev’s new headquarters for the Arktica Institute. He swore it would be done by January of 1993 (but I’ve been taking pictures of its glacial progress since about 1988!) Pretty grim construction methods and the detailing inside was atrocious. [FERUS]
14062-14063 Departing Magadan on our flight home to Anchorage. Cold and clear; Border Guards there to see us off…and very nice to be getting away. [FERUS]
14064-14065 Just some of the terrain north of Magadan on our flight back to Anchorage. Perhaps about 30-45 minutes out of Magadan. [FERUS]

14111 Aerial oblique to east and down on downtown Seattle. (WA)
14112-14114 House on Farmer’s Loop Road in Fairbanks built on Permafrost probably in 80’s and progressively racked itself to pieces. At this point the sign shows it as an example of where not to build on permafrost. Entirely torn down about a year later (but still several examples across the road of the same thing.) (AKFB)
14115 Beautifully exposed vein about 100 yards southwest of the old Tolovana mine on upper Cleary Creek. Found in 80’s; nothing previously known there. Thick section of sulfides and sulfosalt; probably related to a lens of carbonates in the schist that has been replaced with the ore minerals. (Black plastic on the massive ore minerals to hinder oxidization.) (AKLG)

14169-14171 The Robert Gray, ne the Don J. Miler at the dock in Vallejo, California in the Spring of 1994 Looked pretty shabby outside but the owner was doing extensive work inside at that time. (California; 1994)
14172-14173 The Tabor Opera House and an old, photogenic Victorian house at Leadville. (Colorado; 1994)
14174-14177 Andy Miscovich’s placer mine on upper Chatham Creek. Then taking a cut on the north bank roughly where the old Pioneer lode mine was discovered. Note the thick exposure of black frozen muck. Equipment just about on bedrock in these picture. Believe this just about the upper limit of his work on Chatham. (AKLG; 1994)
14178-14179 Not sure where the two pictures were taken but possibly the old Westonvich prospect on upper Cleary Creek. Here sulfides replacing a carbonate layer; much pyrite and locally gossan. (AKLG; 1994)
14180-14182 Rudy Vetter’s Keystone property on the divide between the head of Fairbanks Creek and the head of Chatham Creek.

START WORK IN BONNIFIELD DISTRICT NEAR LIBERTY BELL MINE WITH DGGS –AUGUST 1994
14193-14196 Panorama to north over Boyd Blair’s camp at head of Eva Creek; ridge where we mapped in distance. Somewhat above and to the east of the Liberty Bell mine that can be seen in 14,196. (AKFB; August 1994)
14197 Not sure but think an altered rhyolite near the Liberty Bell mine. (AKFB; Aug 1994)
14198 Altered zone in foliated intermediate granitic rocks in almost continuous exposures along the north, uppermost tributary to Moose Creek. AMAX worked in here several years before and saw several drill sites. Now only some small scale placer mining along this tributary. (AKFS; Aug 1994.)

14210 Float in Creek below Liberty Bell mine. Large piece of quartz stockworks that must have been filled in originally by arsenopyrite, etc. The arsenopyrite now oxidized to light-green scorodite. Much of this type of material in creek material which is also coated with a whitish scum for a mile or so below the mine; suspect the As content of stream material and water is very high. (AKFB, August 1994)
14211 Well-developed cleavage and foliation in phyllite near the Liberty Bell mine. (AKFB, August 1994)
14213-14217 Exact location uncertain but panorama to north from road along ridge that extends east from north of the Liberty Bell mine to Boyd Blari’s camp on California Creek.

14232 DGGS pickup that we used during our mapping at the Liberty Bell mine. (Had to be taken to Ferry on the Alaska Railroad; the bridge at Ferry is not open to vehicular traffic….but definitely so to 4-wheelers.) (AKFS; August 1994)
14233 Nenana Gravel just below the railroad bridge at Ferry. (AKFS; August 1994)
14234-14236 Generally looking east from the northwest corner of Pedro Done. Prominent placers are along Eldorado Creek. (Al Hopen’s now revegetated placer in the foreground.) 14,235 looking southwest over the True North prospect that even then was being actively drilled. (AKLG; August 1994)
