Page 49 - More recently the auriferous-arsenic ores of Temagami were made known, and lastly a discovery has been made of the series of Cobalt-Nickel Arsenides and Silver, which are unique, so far as known, on this continent, and are paralleled by deposits only in Saxony and adjacent regions of continental Europe. The eastern part of this region is also noted for certain minerals which can scarcely be said to be of economic value, but are of great scientific interest. The largest and finest crystals of the...

The Commission, therefore, recommend that such diversions, exclusive of water required for domestic use or the service of locks in navigation canals, be limited on the Canadian side to 36,000 cubic feet per second, and on the United States side to 18,500 cubic feet per second (and in addition thereto, a diversion for sanitary purposes not to exceed 10,000 cubic feet per second, be authorized for the Chicago drainage canal), and that a treaty or legislation be had limiting these diversions to the...

Page 49 - What is known as the Archean protaxis, or that rugged, rocky region which stretche* away from the St. Lawrence river, expanding to the northwestward, and occupying a large part of northern Ontario, has produced and is constantly producing, a group of what may be called unique, or at least comparatively rare, economic minerals. Probably as great a variety of minerals is produced here in proportion to the number of inhabitants as is derived from any other country. Among these economic deposit...
Page 61 - These facts, taken in connection with the uncertain extent of the several areas, seem to render it imperative that systematic and careful prospecting should be undertaken, well in advance of regular mining. Some method of boring could possibly be utilized to determine the- position and the nature of the strata underlying the great gravel deposits of the terraces; until something of this sort is done it will be impossible to define the limits of the several coal areas.
