(ANCHORAGE, ALASKA) - Since it was first discovered by Alaskan placer miners back in 1917, a number of mining companies have found it difficult to get their heads around the complex geology that is a major feature of the high grade Nixon Fork gold mine. After investing US$54 million in the remote site, which is located about 550 kilometres northwest of Anchorage, St. Andrew Goldfields Ltd.  (TSX: T.SAS, Stock Forum) suspended production in October 2007 when the mill head grade dropped to 17.1 grams per tonne from 42 grams.

Fire River Gold Gets Ready To Break Through The Alaskan Silence With The Sounds Of A Fully Functioning Mining Operation
By Alastair Ford

If the silence up at the Nixon Fork gold mine in Southern Alaska seems slightly eerie, then at least there's nothing sinister about it. It's not the calm before the storm, even if the Alaskan winters do come early, and the clouds are already rolling in grey and low as August draws to a close. It's not even a lurking sense of menace at the hidden, but well-attested presence of bears in the woods nearby. No, the silence, and its associated eeriness derive from two distinctly separate, but benign factors. One: despite Nixon Fork's setting at the centre of hundreds of square kilometres of mountainous and wooded Alaskan wilderness, there are no birds in the trees. The birds know how harsh Alaskan winters can be, and they've already embarked for warmer climes, even as summer draws to a close. The first snow falls have already landed on the higher mountains. The second reason that it's eerily quiet is that, despite the presence of nearly US$140 million worth of plant and equipment, Nixon Fork is at present lying idle.

TORONTO (miningweekly.com) -- Vancouver-based junior Fire River Gold plans to be producing gold from its Nixon Fork mine, in Alaska, within the next year, CEO Harry Barr said in Toronto this week.

The company is working on a preliminary economic assessment for operating an underground mining operation at Nixon Fork, which produced gold between 1995 and 1999, and then again briefly in 2007 and 2008, he said at an seminar hosted by Proactive Investors.

The mine has been on care-and-maintenance for the last two years.

Fire results on Fire River!

In recent company news, they have been announcing assay results for their Nixon Fork project in Alaska, which I visited last September.

Over the past couple of months, the company has been announcing some truly bonanza size intersections, from its ongoing re-evaluation program. During 2007 - 2008, the previous operator completed 9400 meters from mostly underground drill stations in 110 holes. The results for these holes were never reported by the operator and have never been included in a resource assessment. Some examples of this are 27 g/t over 24 meters, 67 g/t over 3 meters, and 498 g/t over 3 meters.

Fire River takes a run at Nixon Fork - an article by Susan Kirwin, The Northern Miner

McGrath, Alaska --- The camp at the Nixon Fork gold mine sleeps 85 but the beds have been empty for two years now. Our group of about 15 has an endless selection of identical little rooms to choose from, each outfitted with a nicely made twin bed, a nightstand, a storage shelf and window. Not bad for "camping."
