Abstract
THE publications of the Geological Survey of Canada have long been characterised by the want of promptness of publication. This defect is, however, to a large extent removed by the new departure made by the section of mines under the direction of Mr. E. D. Ingall. It consists in issuing a series of bulletins, giving in condensed and popular form information regarding the mineral resources of the Dominion, together with particulars of similar occurrences in other countries, which may be of use to mining engineers in Canada. We have received thirteen of these bulletins, and from the information given it is evident that the mineral resources of the Dominion are of a most varied character, and that the mineral industry is in a healthy condition. The subjects dealt with are platinum, coal, asbestos, infusorial earth, manganese, salt, zinc, mica, molybdenum and tungsten, graphite, peat, apatite, and copper.
