Caamano Point antimony deposit, Cleveland Peninsula, southeastern Alaska

The Caamano Paint antimony deposit was examined during the period August 16 to September 10, 1942 by G. D. Robinson of the Geological Survey, U. S. Department of the Interior. The workings were mapped on a scale of 1 inch to 10 feet, and contoured on an interval of 10 feet. As a field setting for the prospect area, the southern part of the peninsula was mapped on a scale of 2 inches to 1 mile.

The Caamano Point deposit is near the southern tip of the Cleveland Peninsula, southeastern Alaska, 16 miles by water northwest of Ketchikan, the nearest port (see fig. I). The deposit is one-half mile northwest. of the small bay on the- east side of Caamano Point, at an elevation of 140 feet, and is accessible by a good trail from the bay. The property is reported to be owned by Val Klemm of Ketchikan, who located it in February, 1914.
