We now consider that the gold and platinum observed in Athabasca, Alberta is representative of a low temperature  end-member of sediment-hosted precious metal deposits such as the Carlin gold mine in Nevada. .." ..//..

Over the past year, Birch Mountain has concluded that the Prairie Gold model, probably represents a low temperature variant of certain uncomformity-related, sediment-hosted gold deposits in Nevada that are not associated with intrusive or volcanic heat sources. This recognition has primarily been driven by our detailed examination of cores obtained from oil sands operator Syncrude Canada Ltd. and structural mapping using core-based information combined with results of our 1997 23,000 line kilometer high resolution aeromag survey. .."

To get to the potash deposits, a shaft had to be sunk through the Blairmore formation of rocks. The Blairmores are saturated with water under great pressure and had defeated all earlier attempts to sink mine shafts. Upham succeeded by freezing the ground while sinking the shaft and installing cast iron lining to prevent water inflow after the shaft was completed.
  As vice-president,of mining operations for Newmont Mining from 1964 to 1969, he participated in the startup of the Carlin gold mine in Nevada and development of the Granduc mine in northern British Columbia. He took over as president at Granduc after 26 men were killed in an avalanche attempting to develop the mine in the rugged terrain. Upham directed construction of an 11.6-mile tunnel under three mountains and three glaciers to reach the orebody - at the time the longest tunnel ever driven from a single entry ..//.. ".. Chucka
