Overview

Excerpt from Report of the Bureau of Mines, 1912, Vol. 21: Reports on the District of Patricia, Recently Added to the Province of Ontario Provinces of the Dominion now are Quebec, including Ungava, square miles; Ontario, and British Columbia, The district of Patricia is bounded On the west and northwest by the Province of Manitoba, on the south and southeast by the English and Albany rivers, and on the east and north by James and Hudson bays. Ontario now has a seashore of over 600 miles in length. From time to time during the last forty years the Geological Survey of Canada has sent parties to explore and report on that part Of the district of Keewatin to which the name Patricia has been given. Much valuable information has been Obtained by these parties, but, being scattered through the annual reports of the Geological Survey, many of which are out of print and difficult of access, it is not available to the public. Hence it was decided to collect and reprint the reports, with certain of their accom panying maps and illustrations, and to publish them in a single volume, so that Officials of the Ontario Government, prospectors for minerals, and other persons visiting the district, can have in handy form practically all the information that has been Obtained. This volume may be considered to be a library of the literature on the district. A few other sources of information have been drawn on, in addition to the reports Of the Geological Survey.
