Dredge Boat Planned for Big Hole Placer Ground
Plans call for a gold dredge boat to begin operation next summer in the Big Hole basin near the Battle Ground. Locals expect gravel values around thirty five cents per yard with seven miles of creek bed acquired by a dredging company already operating in Moose Creek Idaho. Several Butte men are said to be interested as the property is thoroughly prospected this winter and a superintendent visiting Butte believes the ground could be an ideal dredging proposition.
