Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a Geological Survey of Canada report documenting the progress that had been made in the 1847-48 season. The author provides detailed accounts of examinations performed by his assistants, Mr. Murray and Mr. Hunt, which include chemical analyses of minerals and mineral waters found during their field research. Notably, the report underscores the wealth of resources found in the southern region of the St. Lawrence, from the abundance of calcareous clay, fit for wheat production, to the abundance of hardwoods found in its forests. The author provides an extensive description of the region's stratigraphy, and the many valuable rocks and minerals yielded from the land, such as good quality limestone suitable for quarrying, and the numerous trap dykes found in quarries, which yield analcime and bladed feldspar. The book concludes with the author's belief that the research and data within this report will be of enormous value to the people of Canada.
