(48) Sechart Peninsula Deposits
LOCATION

Sechart peninsula is the most prominent projection into Barkley
sound, and, together with the group of islands to the south of it, it separated
the western and middle channels. It is almost entirely enclosed by Pipe-
stem inlet on the north, the western channel on the south, and Effingham
inlet on the east. In the heart of the peninsula rise the peaks of Broughton
range to an altitude of 3,000 feet, and on the southern slopes of this range
at elevations varying between 700 and 1,000 feet and distances of 1 to 3
miles from the shore are the group of deposits now to be described.

HISTORY AND OWNERSHIP

“During the early nineties Captain Anderson located several mineral
claims because of the occurrences of magnetite, some of which he sold
during 1901 to the Pacific Steel Company, Washington state, and others
to the Tacoma Steel Company, of the same state. The claims were later
Crown-granted as lots numbered 456, 457, 458, 459, 374, 392, 695, and 696,
and at present are assessed to the following owners:

“Lot No. 456, Crown Prince claim, to the estate of the late Homer Swaney.

“Lot No. 457, Victoria claim, to the estate of the late W. H. Flett.

“Lot No. 458, Old Ireland claim, to the estate of the late W. H. Flett.

“Lot No. 459, Bald Eagle claim, to the Tacoma Steel Company.

“Lot No. 374, Iron Chief claim, to the Tacoma Steel Company.

“Lot No. 392, Standard No. 6 claim, to the Tacoma Steel Company.

“Lot No. 695, Lord of the Isles No. 4 claim, to the Tacoma Steel Company.

“Lot No. 696, Emily R. claim, to the Tacoma Steel Company.’ (21, pages 24-25).

The Western Steel claim of the original series was relocated: in 1902
as the Iron Chief of the above list. It has now reverted to the Crown.

The principal showings are on the Crown Prince, Lord of the Isles
No. 4, Bald Eagle, and Western Steel (Iron Chief) claims, and most of
the development on these showings was done prior to 1903, as it is described
with a geological sketch of the Crown Prince tunnel by Carmichael in

1902 (6, pages 211-212).
