Synopsis
The book contains 13 true stories of lost mines and buried treasure from British Columbia, Alberta, and the Northwest Territories. Although many of the stories themselves are not new, in the past most authors have merely glamorized the possibility that the treasure existed. This author has gone far beyond that, spending the time and research necessary trying to establish whether or not the treasure did, in fact, exist, whether the people, places, and events actually existed. Authentication does not detract from the stories.-- Exciting stories of seeking and finding lost treasure-- Accounts of treachery, murder and massacre, The thirteen stories in this volume revisit some of the most famous unsolved cases of missing treasure from British Columbia, Alberta, and the Northwest Territories. These popular legends tell harrowing tales--of missing loot from a Cariboo stagecoach robbery, gold bullion lost in a blizzard at the summit of Chilkoot Pass, and a terrifying murder at the Lost Lemon Mine, where a mysterious curse guards the secret of Alberta's greatest lost treasure. But did the events in these legends really take place? Here is where historian Garnet Basque brings new information to light, weighing the evidence in each case to sort out fact from fiction. The results are sure to surprise and inspire new generations of treasure seekers in their search for "lost bonanzas." Also available, The Lost Bonanzas of Western Canada, Volume 2 ., Lost Bonanzas features 13 true stories of lost mines, buried treasure or outlaw loot from British Columbia, Alberta and the Northwest Territories. SAN JUAN-RIVER OF GOLD A lost gold mine, nuggets as "big as a man's fist," treachery and a massacre are the exciting ingredients in one of BC's greatest but least-known treasure tales. FOSTER'S LOST LEDGE Port Renfrew residents roamed all over the San Juan River's upper reaches, panning every pond and stream to discover where Foster got his gold-all in vain. LEECHTOWN'S $40,000 GOLD CACHE Legend has it the treasure was buried in the ghost town of Leechtown in a "knee-high rubber boot, covered with an inverted frying pan," less than two feet below the surface. LEGEND OF THE LOST CREEK MINE The elusive Lost Creek Mine, the best-known and most sought-after mine in BC history, remains lost. Does it exist? Is it worth $100 million? THE LOST PLATINUM CACHE Does a bucket of platinum said to be worth $50,000 still lie buried in the ruins of Granite City? Rumour persists that a Scandinavian named Johannson buried such a hoard. LOST MINE OF THE SIMILKAMEEN On striking a match, they found bones scattered all over the tunnel. Were they the remains of the missing prospectors? If so, this was where they made their last stand. THE LOST GOLD BARS OF CAMP McKINNEY In August 1896, three gold bricks en route to Midway were stolen. Although the suspected robber was later killed, the gold, now worth about $275,000, was never recovered. JOLLY JACK'S LOST PLACER Is the mysterious source of John "Jolly Jack" Thornton's gold still waiting to be discovered, or has it finally been traced by historian N. L. Barlee? THE LOST MORGAN MINE Gordon ran the assay on the specimens brought to him by Morgan. They were staggeringly rich, containing between 400 and 500 ounces of silver and from 4 to 5 ounces of gold per ton. THE LOST LEMON MINE After discovering gold, partners Blackjack and Lemon got into a bitter argument that was settled later that night, when Lemon seized an axe and murdered his sleeping companion. GOLD FROM THE B.X. STAGE A treasure of $15,000 in gold nuggets and bars, loot from an 1890 stagecoach robbery, is said to be buried along Scottie Creek, just northeast of Cache Creek. LOST KLONDIKE GOLD The summit of Chilkoot Pass, known for its fierce blizzards, is the repository of two lost gold shipments abandoned by prospectors trying to save their lives. McLEOD'S MISSING MILLIONS According to legend, Willie and Frank McLeod were the first of 20 people who were murdered or went missing while searching for a rich gold mine in Nahanni National Park., The book contains 13 true stories of lost mines and buried treasure from British Columbia, Alberta, and the Northwest Territories. Although many of the stories themselves are not new, in the past most authors have merely glamorized the possibility that the treasure existed. This author has gone far beyond that, spending the time and research necessary trying to establish whether or not the treasure did, in fact, exist, whether the people, places, and events actually existed.
