ALASKA - Frequently Asked Questions About Alaska
Question :
How does one research mining claims? My Uncle Joe had
a claim near Nome.
ANSWER :
To research federal mining claims, one can contact the U.S. Bureau of
Land Management. The Fairbanks office [1-907-451-2790] has a volunteer-compiled
kardex system that traces federal mining claims statewide back to territorial
days.
The Alaska Department of Natural Resources Recorder's offices have a
computer that searches state and federal claims from the 1970's to the
present. Records for claims of the 1800's through the 1970's are recorded
on film. Each Recorder's office keeps the historical records for its
own mining district.
