| Description |
English: The last stage in the mining process was called the cleanup. After the last of the gold was washed from the pay dirt, the miners weighed it to see how much gold they had gotten. This photo shows two miners weighing gold in a comfortably furnished cabin. One man (left) weighs the nuggets in a pan balance while the other holds a pan full of what may be gold dust and small nuggets. Books, pictures, and other personal belongings fill the shelves and walls. The bed is covered with a heavy blanket woven from rags. The photo was taken by B.B. Dobbs at Anvil Creek, near Nome, Alaska. Original title: Weighing a cleanup on 9 above - Anvil - $4,000
