Toronto Prospectors For Northern British Columbia to Investigate Placer Field Found Two Years Ago TORONTO, April 27 .-News of the finding of new-placer gold areas in Northern British Columbia at headwaters of the Yukon and its tributaries is confirmed by J. E. Hammell, president of Northern Aerial Minerals Exploration. A few weeks ago a party of N.A.M.E. engineers and prospectors left Toronto for the far north and, while ineir exact destination Is still un- rrrr r-m known, it is learned that they have p 11 A f g jnr into the Yukon country to fur- f ell U VCr LOW iher investigate placer gold findings that have been kept under cover for two years. The party was flown from W.iterways north rand crowed over' from the Mackenzie River to near. to form any definite conclusions in regard to producUve possibilities. Two years ago a party was sent in by air to follow into parts of the country almost Inaccessible by trail and water routes and had been able !to prospect farther into the head- .4 wter otjrjvers , and creeks than had been possible before. They had found gold in a number of places and the present expedition was or Ihe purpose of more detailed investigation. Going Into the country in the winter season saved several weeks of valuable time during the break-up period that would have been lost if the expedition waited for sumer flying. Found New Gold "Yea, we have found gold in new places in Northern British Columbia." Mr. HammeU admitted. "We have kept the news pretty well to t fn ttm aa Kami ilca t-si UUIoTITU AVI J to a 4 lA.vawn' v v have hesitated to encourage others to go Into that country until we had a good chance to look Into the proposition.

With the plane we were able to take men in a few days to places that they miht have spent a year or more getting to by water ami land.
