(From The All-Alaska Review.) The developments in the Copper River region of Alaska, including * long railway through a difficult coun try r.nd the opening and equipment of the Bonanza mine cost u great deal of money. The gossip used to be that it was upward of $20,000,000. '1 hi was furnished by J. P. Morgan & Co., and M. Guggenheim's Sons, the !att**i subsequently taking in Kuhn, Loeb & Co. Among engineers there was al ways considerable doubt respecting the outcome of this investment consid ered as a whole, although of course, it was recognized that either the mine or the railway could make a fine showing at the expense of the other. A .cording to a Boston paper the syndicate put from $25,000,000 to $20,000,000 into the enterprise and so far fas received $7,500,000 in divi dends from the Konnecott Mines Co. (Bonanza Mine), and $10,000,000 from the sale of Konnecott bonds. The Copper River & Northwestern Ry., which necessitated the greater part of the capital expenditure, ha paid nothing. Apparently therefore the Alaska venture has been conduct led on the 1 asis of a cheap mine and a dear railway. Konnecott is adver tised as the cheapest producer of copper in the world, its average cost being only about 5c per lb. I he con tributory factors in arriving at >uch a cost are highgrade ore—some of it almost pure copper glance—ami what is substantially the free use of a large amount of capital. | By the sale of Kennecott stock the j syndicate will further recoup iUelf it • is to be supposed. The company has an issued capital of 720,000 shares, and there are 400.000 additional shares re. j served for conversion of the bonds, a ! total of 1,120,000. which at $25 per j share—the promotion price—repre | sents a valuation of $28,000,000 or ! about what the company is said to j have put into tin* venture. It will be j interesting to see how’ the public will j make out in its investment in this mine of very rich ore, which probabU lacks the elements of long life that the porphyry mines have—(The En gineering and Mining Journal.)
