Here the Silurian rocks are apparently greatly folded, but the structure has not yet been closely defined. Large quantities of siliceous hematite occur among these rocks and will some day be used in the manufacture of iron. A few days spent in examining numerous pits and boreholes between Glace bay and Schooner pond, with Mr. C. M. Odell, resident engineer of the Dominion Coal Company, Mr. Joseph Daniels of Lehigh University, Pa. , in charge of the explorations, and Mr. Patrick Neville, deputy ...inspector of mines, convinced tVo writer that no mistake had been made in locating No. 6 as a colliery to supply the demand for Phelan seam coal, that the seam worked at No. 6 could be no other than the coal of the Clyde mines and of McDonald (Tice) cove, called the Phelan, that the Emery seam is everywhere at its proper distance beneath it, and that, therefore, No. 6 cannot be on the Emery seam as had been suggested. With the same gentlemen the wirter walked along the cliffs of the opposite shores of Glace bay, in which rocks overlying these two seams are well exposed and must appeal powerfully to the most unobservant in favour of their identity and continuity, by the position of the various coal seams, large and small at the same distance apart, by the recurrence of similar associated strata and by the strike of every bed of one section towards corresponding beds on the other shore, a correspondence greatly strengthened by shaft-records and mine workings at Caledonia and No.
