A List of Canadian Minerals.

INTRODUCTION.

A quarter of a century has elapsed since Hoffmann's
"Annotated List of the Minerals of Canada" appeared first
in the Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada, Vol.
VII, Sec. Ill, 1889, and subsequently in the form of a
revised reprint in the Annual Report of the Geological Survey for
1889. In that list the general descriptive plan followed by Hunt
in the Geology of Canada, 1863, was adopted, a complete list of
localities being neither intended nor implied. In addition to
being an authoritative index of the knowledge of Canadian
mineralogy up to the date of its publication, it was also in a large
measure indicative of the progress of mineralogic investigation
in Canada during the interval following the appearance of Hunt's
earlier report.

In the present list a somewhat different plan is being followed.
The intention here has been to bring together in as complete a
list as possible all notable occurrences so far (December 1, 1914)
recorded in Canada, thus leaving the compilation of a new descrip-
tive list for consideration in some subsequent report. That such
a course seems warranted is plainly evident from the inquiries
that have been received from various quarters for specific lists
of mineral occurrences in Canada.

The major part of the information herein contained has been
gleaned from the reports of the Geological Survey of Canada,
the Department of Mines, and of the Bureaus and Departments
of Mines of the Provincial Governments. Resort has also been
had to the mineral collections of the Department of Mines as
occasion demanded. Much kindly aid and advice has also
been freely accorded by the following gentlemen: Harry Piers,
Esq., Provincial Museum, Halifax, N. S. ; T. C. Denis, Esq.,
Superintendent of Mines, Quebec, Que.; Dr. F. D. Adams,
Professor of Geology, McGill University, Montreal, Que.; Dr.

R. P. D. Graham, Professor of Mineralogy, McGill University,
Montreal, Que.; W. F. Ferrier, Esq., Toronto, Ont.; Dr. W. G.
Miller, Provincial Geologist, Toronto, Ont.; Dr. T. L. Walker,
Professor of Mineralogy, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ont.;
D. B. Dowling, Esq., Geological Survey, Department of Mines,
Ottawa, Ont.; Wm. Nicol, Esq., Professor of Mineralogy,
Queens University, Kingston, Ont.; Dr. R. C. Wallace, Professor
of Geology, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Man.; Wm.
Fleet Robertson, Esq., Provincial Mineralogist, Victoria, B. C.;
Wm. Thomlinson, Esq., Cranbrook, B. C., and the late W. J.
Sutton, Esq., to all of whom the writer wishes here to record his
great indebtedness.

Part I of this list embraces a list of the minerals which have
so far with reasonable certainty been identified as occurring
in Canada and in each case a list of localities of occurrence is
given for each province and territory in the Dominion.

In Part II are embraced lists of minerals known to occur
in the various municipal and mining divisions into which the
provinces and territories are subdivided. It is confidently
expected that this arrangement will prove to be of value both to
the prospector and to the collector.

It is proposed to publish supplements to this list at suitable
intervals and when the accumulation of new information warrants
such a course, to incorporate it in a new revised list.

Finally it may be said that the introduction of errors seems
inseparable from the compilation of a list of this kind and it is
earnestly requested that mistakes or omissions noted in this list
will be freely communicated to the Department in order that
they may be corrected in future editions of the list.

situated along the north shore of Lake Superior and on the islands
adjacent thereto, where agate is found as loose pebbles and also
in veins filling fractures in the trap; on St. Ignace island agates
are found as nodules in the trap, and good specimens have also
been found on Simpson island (G.S.C., N.S., III, 7 IS).

QUEBEC—

It is very rarely that agates of good quality have been found in this

province.
Gaspe County. — Agate pebbles are found in the conglomerate of

Chaleur bay (G.S.C., N.S., III, 71S).

Albertite.

(Hydrocarbon.)

NEW BRUNSWICK.—

Albert County. — The principal locality for albertite is at the Albert
mines, from which the mineral receives the name, in the parish
of Hillsborough. It was first discovered by one John Duffy in
1849 in what proved to be a wedge shaped fissure vein, having
a width at the surface of 16 feet; other smaller veins were
also found in the immediate neighbourhood varying from a few
inches in width down to mere threads. These veins occur mostly
in connexion with oil-yielding shales of the Lower Carboniferous
system; some of the veins, however, penetrate into the overlying
Millstone Grits and the underlying metamorphic rocks. Similar
patches have also been found in the gypsum deposits of the dis-
trict (G.S.C., N.S., IV, 16T).

Kings County. — Small quantities of albertite are found near Norton
(G.S.C., N.S., X, 70M).

of calcite cutting argillaceous limestones and shales on the Black
river, east branch of the River John (G.S.C., N.S., V, 128P);
and in sandstones associated with barite on the west branch of
the River John (G.S.C., N.S., V, 174-5P).

pyrite in a coarse granite vein composed of quartz, feldspar, and
mica, cutting red orthoclase gneiss in Dalton, 25-XII (G.S.C,
N.S., VI, 7 J).

QUEBEC—

Champlain County. — Allanite forms one of the principal constituents
of coarse granite, which is found in considerable masses on the east
shore of Lake Bouchard {Lac a Baude). Determinations made in
the laboratory of the Geological Survey upon a mass of granite
weighing seven and a half pounds showed that about 56 per cent of it
consisted of allanite. The mineral forms flat tabular crystal-

Anthraxolite.

(Hydrocarbon.)

"This name was given by Professor E. J. Chapman to the black, com-
bustible, coal-like matter which is met with, not infrequently, in
various formations in different parts of the Dominion. Its general
appearance resembles anthracite, having the black, lustrous charac-
ter of that variety of coal. It is very brittle and has a hardness
between 2.25 and 2.50. Its specific gravity varies from 1.35
to 1.55. Its composition is essentially carbon with from 3 to
25 per cent of volatile matter including a small amount of moisture
and ash content of from nothing to eleven per cent. Under
the microscope it shows no traces of organic structure and was
regarded by the late Dr. T. S. Hunt as having without doubt

resulted from the slow alteration of liquid bitumen in the fissures
of the strata. This would explain the great variability in the
volatile matter, exclusive of moisture, which is observed in speci-
mens from different localities, the amount of alteration having in
some instances proceeded further than in others. It never occurs
in true beds like coal, but is found either lining fissures or filling
veins and fissures, sometimes several inches in diameter in the
limestone strata and even in the trap rocks which traverse these.
Sometimes it occurs in buttons or drops forming botryoidal
masses" (G.S.C., N.S., IV, 18T).

Apatite.

(Fluo-phosphate of calcium.)

Fluor apatite is of common occurrence in portions of the Grenville series
of some of the central counties of Ontario and of Ottawa and adjoining coun-
ties in the province of Quebec. The largest deposits are in the form of ir-
regular veins or in basic intrusives cutting the older gneisses: it is also found,
but usually in small scattered crystals, in pegmatite dykes cutting the same
rocks. There is voluminous literature on the subject and for a full elu-
cidation of it the reader is referred to the various Annual Reports of the Cana-
dian Geological Survey and also the Mineral Resources Bulletin, No. 881 of the
same Survey, from which concise information may be had; also to some of the
Reports of the Ontario Bureau of Mines.

by Dr. Le Conte (Am. Journ. Sci., Vol. Ill, 117, 173-175, 1847)
upon a specimen collected by Mr. B. A. Stanard. It was further
examined and described by Whitney (Journ. Bost. Soc. Nat. Hist.,
1849, 36); and again by Genth (Am. Journ. Sci., Ser. 2, 1857, 421).
It was said to have been found in a vein 2 inches in width at
the junction of trap with syenite.

and Palaeozoic systems of the province. The so-called limestones
of the Silurian of the Inter lake peninsula consist for the most part
of dolomites; the same mineral forms extensive beds in the Cal-
ciferous of the eastern part of the province. Beds of dolomite are
also extensively developed in the Grenville of the south-central and
eastern parts and the Huronian of the northern parts. Crystal-
lized dolomite — bitter spar or pearl spar — is often found with
calcite and gypsum in the dolomites of the Niagara formation
of the Interlake peninsula and under similar circumstances in
cavities in the Calciferous formation; it is also found in connexion
with the copper-bearing rocks of Bruce Mines, Algoma district
(Geol. Can., 1863, 456, 457).

depth of 964 feet; in the year following at Clinton, at a depth
of 1,180 feet, and in the succeeding year at Kincardine, at a depth
of about 900 feet; subsequently at Seaforth at 1,035 feet, and again
at Kingstones Mills in Warwick at 1,200 feet. A boring made in
Goderich in 1876, which was carried to a depth of 1,517 feet, has
shown the existence of no less than six beds of rock salt, one of
which is close upon 31 feet, and another very nearly 35 feet in
thickness. For geological details, records of borings, and analyses

Pyrrhotite.

(Sulphide of iron.)
BRITISH COLUMBIA.—

Pyrrhotite occurs in considerable abundance at many localities in this
province. Many samples have been examined at different times and
by different analysts with a view to ascertaining if any of them con-
tained any appreciable amount of nickel. Of the long series
which have been examined in the laboratory of the Geological
Survey a great majority showed either none at all or for the most
part only a few tenths of a per cent of nickel, the highest recorded,
an exceptional case from Clayoquot Mining Division — the
Two Sisters and Crow claim, Deer creek, Clayoquot yielded 1.7 per
cent nickel (G.S.C., N.S., XI, 41R). The following localities
are given as illustrating in a general way the distribution of the
mineral in this province: —
Grand Forks; Greenwood; Kamloops; Nelson: Slocan and
Trail Creek Mining Divisions, and other mining divisions
in the southern part of the province.

Piers).
Victoria County.— Boularderie Centre (G.S.C., N.S., XIII, 33R).

ONTARIO.—

Important deposits of pyrrhotite occur at many localities in this prov-
ince. In the Sudbury District owing to the replacement of a
portion of the iron by nickel, pyrrhotite becomes the principal
ore of this metal; in other portions of the province, the nickel
usually occurs only in traces or in such small amounts as to be of
no importance commercially. The following are some of the more
important localities throughout the province: —

LIST OF RECENT REPORTS OF GEOLOGICAL
SURVEY

Since 1910, reports issued by the Geological Survey have
been called memoirs and have been numbered Memoir 1, Memoir
2, etc. Owing to delays incidental to the publishing of reports
and their accompanying maps, not all of the reports have been
called memoirs, and the memoirs have not been issued in the
order of their assigned numbers and, therefore, the following
list has been prepared to prevent any misconceptions arising
on this account. The titles of all other important publications
of the Geological Survey are incorporated in this list.
