<\/div>\n
SUMMER 1959:  Don VanEvery, Ian Rutherford, Bill Morrison, Mike Chinnery, Alan Skeoch and Dr. John StaM were flown to Dillingham, Alaska to conduct a Turam<\/div>\n
geophysical ground survey in he summer of 1959.  From Dillingham the Canadian crew were flown into the Alaskan interior  by two Sikorsky<\/div>\n
S 52 helicopters.   A camp had been constructed overlooking an Alaska river valley where thousands of coho salmon were ricing to lay their eggs before they died.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
We were told the site was a secret.  Whether this was true or not I have never been able to prove one way or another.  What I do<\/div>\n
know is that the site is located overtop a huge area of copper mineralization.  To this day, April 2022, no mine has been constructed<\/div>\n
