A Message from the Executive Director
business, to the firefighting and recovery efforts. I’ve lived here my entire life, and still, Alaskans never cease to amaze me. Back to what we have to be excited about. It’s back to business after a field season, summer break, hunting season, and everything else we tend to do through the third quarter. Our committees have reconvened and we are presently reviewing the U.S. Forest Service’s NEPA regulations revisions (and on a related note, the recent announcement from President Trump that the Tongass should be opened for more development!), the Ambler Road Draft EIS and Environmental and Economic Assessment, and new ESA regulations. We’re also gearing up for a fantastic 80th Anniversary Convention where we’ll honor our past, present, and future. Starting the first week of September, we’ll make daily updates to our website so that you can have hot off the press information about keynotes, technical sessions, fun networking and 80th anniversary events, and much more. In advance of the Convention, our eight statewide branches will be performing elections. Please watch for notices from current branch chairs and nominating committees, and consider throwing your name in the hat to be a Director on our statewide board. The AMA Board advises me on a number of fronts, including policy and issues, administration of the organization, membership satisfaction, and much more. The strength and diversity of our board is an asset, and is the reason we are such a respected organization. I greatly appreciate those of you that have served us in the past, and I hope those folks can do some effective arm-twisting to get new Directors onboard (no pun intended). Welcome back to the office/home to all of you, and I look forward to seeing you this fall.
Dear Members, I don’t know how it got to be September already. As I write this, we are packing up our office and the storage unit to head out to Palmer for Mining Day at the Alaska State Fair. Once again this year, we will join with the Council of Alaska Producers to host Mining Day, and will feature the Gold Prospectors of America/Alaska at our booth to bring in hundreds of fairgoers interested in panning for

gold and learning more about our industry. Each year we’ve done this, we’ve reached tens of thousands of Alaskans, and we’re looking forward to doing so again. This comes off the heels of a recent Mining Day at Tanana Valley Fair (see photos in this issue!) and our first ever participation in the Southeast Alaska State Fair in Haines, that was featured in our last issue of this Journal. These events are a great reminder that outreach to the public about Alaska’s mining industry is more important than ever. Yes, fair time means summer is over, and while that is a bummer, we have a lot to be excited about for this fall. First, let’s hope it brings significant rainfall to various regions of our State. We’ve seen wildfires impact our operations in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley, Kenai Peninsula, Interior, and Southwest Alaska. Much worse is the many Alaskans who have lost their homes and all of their possessions and are starting over. Many more are still, as I write this, praying that fire doesn’t touch their properties. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the fire victims, as well as the first responders out there fighting. A quick feel good moment – last week I was on a flight to Kenai, which at the last minute was upgraded to a larger jet to accommodate a very full flight. On the plane were a large group of firefighters from Washington, Oregon, and Montana who have come up to help the situation. Every single passenger, the flight attendant, and the pilots stopped to thank them for coming to our State and helping put the fires out. Later that evening, I learned that at the fundraiser taking place for the Kenai River Sportsfishing Association, the bartenders were all donating their tips, which would be matched by a local

mineral chemistry, and exploration methods, including hydrothermal vectoring using lithogeochemistry and SWIR. COLD REGIONS WATER MANAGEMENT is a one day short course (November 4), featuring instructors Tom Sharp, Michael Royle, Ivan Clark, and Christopher Stevens. Water management is essential to nearly all mining and mineral processing activities, and its practice from exploration through closure must adhere to environmental re- quirements that can impact the advancement of a project, economic success of an operating mine, and effective mine closure. Cold region conditions and permafrost present an additional challenge to the management of water. This short course will focus on the unique water management challenges in cold regions, innovative approaches, and practical solutions. Topics to be covered include surface and ground- water systems influenced by cold region processes, water, and load balance development, design of water management infrastructure founded on permafrost, and water treatment. Several case studies will be presented to demonstrate practical and cost-effective approaches to the management of water in cold regions. Reprentatives from all of Alaska’s producing and potential mines will be represented including Northern Star, owner of Pogo Mine.

Balash Leaves Key DOI Position
One of Alaska mining’s greatest friends in Washington D.C. has re- signed. Joe Balash, resigned August 30 as the Department of Interior’s as- sistant secretary for Land and Minerals. In that role, Balash lead key Alaska initiatives opening millions of acres for resource development by both the mining and oil and gas industries, while defending mea- sures to develop resources in line with best environmental protection practices. “While I’m saddened by Joe’s departure from the Department of the Interior, I know his efforts created a situation where the Department and Alaska’s miners are in great hands,” AMA executive director Deantha Crockett said. “He worked tirelessly to ensure reasonable regulation and access to the nation’s lands by multiple users, the very core of the what DOI should be doing at all times. I’m extremely grateful for Joe’s service, and I hope our paths cross in the future.”
Balash has been a regular at AMA events from local chapter breakfasts to annual conventions. He is a born-and-raised Alaskan from North Pole, who has worked in key state and Federal roles. Before going to Washington D.C. first as chief of staff for Sen. Dan Sullivan, he had been commissioner of the Alaska Department of Natural Resources. “I’ll have more to say about my next adventure once I have fully separat- ed from the department,” he told the Anchorage Daily News in August. “I’m leaving on good terms — it’s all positive.” Balash told the Daily News his absence will not hurt the government’s efforts to improve conditions for resource development in Alaska. “The work is mostly done,” he said by text. “I put together a great team (to) do the work -- and they will remain.” Senator Sullivan said of the announcement that Balash worked tire- lessly at Interior “to promote the goal of American energy dominance, and understood that Alaska was key to that goal,” Sullivan said. “In do- ing so, he has helped set Alaska up for success for years to come. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.” “Alaska is in a better place because of his leadership and we thank him for his many years of public service,” Sen. Lisa Murkowski said, adding that the state’s strong ties with Interior will continue. He told the Daily News his accomplishments include guiding the first-ever joint-agency federal decision to advance development at Donlin gold mine in Southwest Alaska. He announced Sept. 4 that he is taking a new role in Alaska with Oil Search.

Wheeler Sets New Direction For EPA
Andrew Wheeler, Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, spoke to Alaska’s resource industry in August while touring the entire state. At a lunch sponsored by most of Alaska’s resource industry associations including AMA, and hosted by Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan, Wheeler set a re- freshing tone far different from his predecessors. “Alaska is blessed with incredible natural resources that can create jobs and improve jobs,” Wheeler said. “We know we can extract and use these re- sources while protecting the environment at the same time. We don’t have to choose one over the other.” This and similar comments brought many rounds of applause from a large crowd of supporters. Addressing Sen. Sullivan, Wheeler cited specific programs that Sullivan has shepherded with the EPA. “Senator it’s been a pleasure working with you on a variety of issues.” He singled out grants that will be awarded beginning in September to help rural communities improve their water systems, a program Sullivan spon- sored. And he pointed out the Save Our Seas legislation Sullivan sponsored to reduce ocean debris. Wheeler said he’s helped ensure that ocean debris is being reflected in in- ternational trade agreements, the first time that has happened. He also thanked both Sullivan and Sen. Lisa Murkowski for keeping Alaska issues before the EPA, because of their leadership on key House and Sen- ate committees. He singled out air quality issues as a topic Murkowski has kept as an EPA focus. Wheeler has an extensive resume lobbying for resource industries, in par- ticular coal mining. He cited progress the Trump administration has made to empower the states to have more power managing their own environmental standards and policies. “A one size fits all policy does not work,” he stated.
EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler toured Alaska in August including a detailed briefing hosted by Senator Dan Sullivan and Alaska resource industry associations including AMA.
We need to work cooperatively with the states, as well as with local govern- ments and tribes. When it comes to issues like wetlands, the EPA and Corps of Engineers are trying to provide flexibility,” he said. That includes focuses mitigation where it’s needed to address real rather than imagined environmental concerns, he added. He cited both work to help rural Alaska communities invest in solutions to address their local water quality issues, as well as changing the rules for the diesel engine power generation that is so critical to rural Alaska com- munities. “These efforts reflect the new attitude and approach of the EPA,” he said proudly. Of particular importance to miners, he also recounted the administration’s decision to roll back Obama administration proposed restrictions on hard rock mining. “The previous administration on the way out the door tried to impose these restrictions. It would have dealt a serious blow to the mining industry.” He pointed out Alaska’s leadership as the number one producer of zinc and silver and number two of gold.

“We are determined to work with rural communities to develop their mineral resources in a safe fashion.” Permitting is another area he cited as a big improvement, with 99 percent of EPA permit requests met on time in 2018, and a goal of 100 percent in 2019. In that same vein, simplifying oil and gas regulations have cut $480 million in regulation costs. Another priority, he said, is reducing the Obama administration’s overreach in regulating the oil and gas industry. “We believe a property owner should be able to stand on his property to determine if his water is Federal or not, without having to hire outside con- sultants!” Redefining clean energy is another priority he said, giving the states more flexibility to manage clean power. “From 1970 to 2018 the U.S. criteria for air pollutants has fallen 74 percent, while the economy has grown by 275 percent!” Helping private energy develop technology to continue that trend is import- ant, he said, as is reminding trading partners that if clean energy is a priority, buying it from the United States where it is produced more cleanly should be a priority. He closed by saying that President Trump is dedicated to using U.S. re- sources to solve U.S. energy problems. He used as an example New En- gland communities that are having to purchase Russian natural gas to meet their energy needs, when the U.S. has a surplus of natural gas. “Imagine the carbon footprint of transporting that gas across the ocean from Russia. He noted that in In the last 2 ½ years the EPA has moved forward 41 regu- lation action, saving Americans 3.5 billion dollars. And there’s another 47 deregulation actions in the works that could save another $100 billion in regulations costs. When it comes to environmental and national security, there is no better investment than American energy and minerals.”

DNR Announces New Rental Rates For Mining Claims Sites, Leases
The Alaska Department of Natural Resources has announced new rental rates affecting Alaska Miners effective Sept. 1. Here is a summa- ry of the information provided to AMA: The Office of the Lt. Governor approved a change to 11 AAC 86, setting forth new rental rates for mining claims, prospecting sites, and mining leases for the 2020 mining year that begins on September 1, 2019. These increases to mining rental rates were conducted in accordance with State of Alaska Law AS 38.05.211, which requires an adjustment to the rental rates based on the change on the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Alaska every 10 years to account for the change in the cost of living over the 10 year period between ad- justments. The last adjustment was completed in 2009. The table below lists the new rental rates for different types, sizes, and ages of mining claims and leasehold locations. Table 1 – Rental Rates for Mining Claims and Leasehold Locations Number of Years Since First Located Rental Amount for Each Quar- ter-Section Size MTRSC Location Rental Amount for Each Quar- ter-Quarter Section Size MTRSC Location Rental Amount for Each Traditional Mining Claim or Leasehold Location The annual rental rates for mining leases on a per acre basis are listed in the next column: Rental Rates for Upland and Offshore Mining Leases Number of Years Since First Located Rental Amount Per Acre for Mining Lease

The rental requirement for prospecting sites is a one-time payment of $305.00 to be paid at the time the prospecting site is recorded. Pros- pecting sites are good for 2 years and may not be renewed. Here are answers to some frequently asked questions regarding rental rates: How are the new rental rates calculated? In 1989, the State of Alaska Legislature set the rental rates for mining claims, leasehold locations, and mining leases. In addition, the legis- lature directed the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to adjust the rental rates every 10 years based on a change in the CPI for Alaska

Current data suggests the channel/pay extends northerly-southerly, is approximately 250-ft wide, with grade varying higher on the west side, to lower on the east side. Previous mining was first mostly upper reaches and by family oriented small operations, later by dragline which did not reach deep enough to mine the main pay, and later by excavator and haul truck, which did reach the main pay but in only a few locations, and in all cases prior to the main pay being properly identified. Grade ranges from in excess of 0.07 (drill data on west side), to 0.012 (mining data on east side) 3 . Thickness is uncertain, but appears to range from 6-ft to 10-ft on the east, to 15-ft to 20-ft on the west.

using the following simple formula in which the denominator is the CPI for the first half of 1989 as determined by the Federal Government Bu- reau of Labor Statistics, and the nominator is the CPI for the first half of the year in which the adjustment was made. The formula resulted a correction factor. The correction factor is multiplied by the rental rates set in 1989 to produce the new rental rates. Why is the rental rate for Quarter Section mining claims not ex- actly four times the rate for the Quarter-Quarter Section mining claim? The Legislature required DNR to round off the rental rate to the near- est $5.00. For example; the calculated rental rate for a 40 acre claim of less than 5 years is $41.27 and when rounded to the nearest $5.00 is $40.00. Multiplying $41.27 by 4 results in the actual rental rate for a 160 acre claim to be $165.08 and rounding off to the nearest $5.00 is $165.00. I have already paid my claim rental for the coming year at the previous year rate. Will I automatically lose my claim because I didn’t pay the total amount due for this year? No. By regulation, if it is determined that a miner fails to make a full payment for rent on a mining claim, DNR is required to notify the miner of the deficient payment by certified mail. The miner is then required to make full payment on or before December 2 or 30 days after the receipt of the letter, whichever is later. Additional questions can be answered by DNR representative Lora Eddy at (907) 269-8628 or Kristen Shake at (907) 269-8652, or by email to kristen.shake@alaska.gov.

Chris Birch: Senator, Mining Engineer, Statesman, Granddad
Alaska Miners and the entire state lost a great leader and statesman when Anchorage Senator Chris Birch passed away suddenly in August. He was 68. Birch’s proud family history in Alaska began in 1944 when his father, Frank, was stationed in Adak while serving in the US Marine Corps. After the war, Frank returned to Alaska with his wife, Bettijeanne, where he worked as a mining engineer and she as a geologist. Growing up in mining camps near Fairbanks and the Brooks Range, Birch followed in his father’s footsteps, earning a bachelors degree in Mining Engineering from the University of Alaska Fairbanks in 1972 and a Master of Science degree in Engineering Management in 1979. He was very active in the Alaska Miners Association and was a regular at the Friday morning Anchorage AMA breakfasts, giving thoughtful insights and updates from the Alaska Legisla- ture, blended with jokes delivered with his quick grin. “I’m the only mining engineer in the Legislature,” he said often and with great pride, adding that it gave him unique insight into the demands on and needs of Alaska’s mining industry. Birch served in the Alaska House of Representatives from 2017-2018 and the Alaska Senate in 2019, in addition to mem- bership on both the Anchorage and Fairbanks assemblies and other numerous community organizations throughout his life. He is survived by his wife, Pam, two children and four grand- children.

Colleagues Remember Chris Birch
“This is a devastating loss to our state. Chris was a good, principled man of character, one who treated everyone with dignity and respect. You could always count on him to stand up for what’s right, regardless of the political consequences. His absence in the Capitol will be keenly felt by all who had the privilege to know him.” — Senate President Cathy Giessel “Chris’ passing came as a shock to us all. He was extremely fit, in both mind and body. Chris never met a hiking trail he didn’t like and could often be found on top of a mountain range, rain or shine. He carried that same mindset to the Senate floor and didn’t shy away from the tough topics. Instead, he worked hard for Alaska’s best future, while always maintaining a positive outlook. He was my colleague, my hiking partner, my dear friend. I will miss him deeply.” — Senator Natasha von Imhof “Chris and Pam have been friends from our days in Fairbanks so many years ago and have shared with us a lifetime of adventures. Our families raised children together and spent countless days enjoying Alaska’s great outdoors. He was al- ways proud to be the only mining engineer in the Legislature.” — Representative Jennifer Johnston “Pam and her family were childhood friends of my family and I met Chris his Freshman in the legislature... wished I had known him longer. Neat guy, smart as a whip and knew half the peo- ple in Alaska it seemed. Huge loss for Alaska. Just a shocker as he was like a mountain goat, climbing mountains here in Juneau.” — Scott Spickler “A great friend and a great loss. One thing that Chris stated on various occasions was that he was conceived at the Indepen- dence Mine at Hatcher Pass where his dad worked, and his parents lived in the mine camp.” — Steve Borell “Chris always had a friendly face, a thoughtful word, and a good story. His sudden passing reminds me that we all have an expiration date on the milk bottle of our lives, so to speak, and to be always ready to meet our Creator. Remembering a good public servant.” — Doug Isaacson “Very sad news indeed. He contributed much to the state and was as staunch an advocate for the mining industry as we could hope for.” — John Shively “Thanks for the opportunity to share thoughts and memories for our industry from one of our greatest allies. As you saw at the only Anchorage Branch meeting I’ve attended, he loved anything that had to do with getting young Alaskans engaged. He was so generous with his time to come and speak with the students.” — Graham Neale “I first met and worked with Chris Birch during the Reagan presidency on the BLM Advisory Council. We enjoyed many spirited exchanges on the Council when dealing with tough and thorny issues facing Alaska - from a Federal land man- agement perspective. I admired the way he always spent time during the breaks talking with and trying to gain insight from those folks that he disagreed with on various issues we were discussing. He always had my respect ... and was a good teacher and colleague in the ensuing years of our friendship.” — Charlie Boddy
Chris Birch was proud of his career and legacy in the mining industry and took every opportunity to work with Alaska’s miners.
Chris also was eager to teach and share ideas with young Alaskans, as he’s doing in this classroom.
At last year’s AMA convention, Chris posed for a photo with Sen. Dan Sullivan and Rep. Laddie Shaw, who Chris often called “my representative.”

Martin M. Herzog Jr.
Martin M. Herzog, Jr. died in Fairbanks June 18. A member of AMA for many years, he packed a lot of life into his 90 years. He was born in Stockton, California on October 8, 1928 to a Hungarian-immigrant father and a California pioneer mother. Martin, or Marty, grew up with three broth- ers and four sisters in a neighborhood made up of first-generation Americans.
opportunities in 1960s Alaska and moved there for good shortly after the birth of their daughter, Denise. Martin and Jean made their home in Anchorage, where Martin continued working in the audio business and later as a mechanic. Every Friday afternoon, they would pack their gear and Denise in their truck and head for the rivers and streams of the Kenai Penin- sula. Martin also learned to fly and owned several small planes. In 1976, Martin and Jean bought a placer claim on Cache Creek in the Yentna Mining District. There they mined every summer until 1999. In 1990, they decided to spend the winters in Carson City, but they always headed north every spring to spend the summer mining. They eventually decided that the annual commute was a little long and moved back to Alaska, settling in Fairbanks to be near Denise. After Jean died of cancer in 2001, Martin soothed his grief with new adventures. He bought a new truck, a camper, and a C-Dory boat where he treated many of his family and friends to adventures in Prince William Sound. In January 2018, Martin moved to his last home at the Fairbanks Pioneers Home. His skill at making lasting friendships was remarkable. Martin is survived by his daughters Joanna London (Gary) and De- nise Herzog Cook (John), grandchildren Christina Winters, Tracey Harbo, Jack Cook, and Jeannie Cook, three great-grandchildren, brother Jerry Herzog (Melvie), and many nieces and nephews.
He apprenticed to an auto-mechanic at an early age and went on to repair, own, and sell many cars that are now considered classics. He was a lifelong enthusiast of motorcycles, hunting, and fishing. In 1951, he met and married Alice Silva. Together they had one daughter, Joanna, in Riverside, California. Martin later moved back to Stockton and went to work in the audio business. After marrying Jean Ann Bryan in 1962, they took their honeymoon trip to Alaska to hunt caribou at Butcher’s Hunting Camp at Tangle Lakes on the Denali Highway. They fell in love with the outdoor
