Excerpt from Geology and Coal Resources of the Cape Lisburne Region, AlaskaThe only mineral resources of the region that are known to be of commercial importance are the coal deposits, which are the subject of this report, though gold is reported on the headwaters of some of the rivers.The coal fields are accessible only by sea, and in this way only from July to Octo ber, inclusive. There are no harbors or protection for seagoing vessels, but in calm weather, or when the winds are from the south, coal can be boated or lightered to ships anchored from 1 to 2 miles offshore.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
