Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Geology of a Portion of Fabre Township: Pontiac County During the great activity in prospecting following the discovery of the valuable deposits of silver at Cobalt the attention of a considerable number of prospectors was attracted to the township of Fabre, where it was soon shown that there also were occurrences of rocks similar to those at Cobalt. Their work being hampered by lack of a satisfactory geological map, the writer was instructed by the Quebec Department of Mines to revise the previous information and to prepare a new detailed map and report. Two months and a half were spent in the field in the summer of 1910, during which time a careful micrometer and compass survey was made of the rock exposures in the portion of the township found to be the most favourable for prospecting. Since previous work in other districts had shown that the silver-bearing ores are closely associated with the "newer diabase," the area covered by detailed work was confined to the vicinity of the occurrences of the diabase, so that for some small portions of the map the information has been used unrevised from the work of the Geological Survey of Canada. Thus the revision was not continued into the large area of Laurentian granite and gneiss lying to the south and east, and the geology of ranges I-IV, north of Young´s Creek on map sheet No. 1066 of the Geological Survey of Canada, as given by M. E. Wilson, was accepted, though with slightly modified boundaries. The area of the portion revised is between forty-five and fifty square miles. The surveying was carried on in an intelligent and enthusiastic manner by Messrs. F. B. Painchaud and 0. R. Pepin, students of l´Ecole Poly technique, Montreal, to both of Avliom I am indebted for highly efficient service. Acknowledgments for favours and assistance received in the course of the work are especially due to Messrs. T. Drolet, Wm. Donohoe, Jas. Mitchell and Andrew Stewart of Fabre.
