The correct answer is B. Gold

William Seward, Secretary of State during the mid 19th century, decided to buy Alaska from Russia. Many Congressmen thought this was a terrible idea and dubbed this purchase "Seward's folly." Congress thought this was a waste of money and time, as Alaska was not known for having any great resources. However, the opinion of everyone changed when gold was discovered in Alaska in 1898.
