Has anyone heard of this ? 1898 J. Elder, from Foxburg, reported finding gold ore, testing $60 to $200 a ton, in the mouth of the Clarion River. Hopeful gold-seekers rushed to the Klondike (West Clarion) field, despite reports that all claims within fifty miles of Dawson City were assigned.

I dabble in history and came across this a while back. HH Rick
