Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company records, 1880-2000.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/156811252

The collection includes rather complete records from the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company (A.J.) which also includes mines cooperatively owned or purchased by A.J. These mines include Alaska Gastineau (Perseverance), Alaska Treadwell, Ebner, Silverbow (Nowell), Kensington, and Echo Bay. Various other smaller mining operations also gradually funneled into A.J. The A.J. properties, including company records, were eventually purchased by Alaska Electric Light and Power Company. AELP archived the records until they were transferred to the Alaska State Library in the summer of 2000. The oldest records are from mines begun in the early 1880's such as Groundhog, Paris, Fuller, Johnson Milling & Mining, and Dora, Fuller being the first. The collection also contains photographs and an indexed map and drawing collection.
