By 1901, many of Alaska's small scale mining operations had been replaced by large industrial mining companies. Many of these companies used large steam-powered dredges to scoop up the gravel from creekbeds. This photo, taken around 1900, shows a dredge belonging to the Three Friends Mining Co. working the Solomon River, Alaska.
