What reading level is The Mines And Mineral Lands of Nova Scotia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It may be considered presumptuous to make such a statement at present ; but when the extent of the coal now worked in England, in localities where at the surface newer rocks alone appear, is remembered, it is not unreasonable to predict that the district mentioned may prove very valuable. Should these upper or non-productive coal measures not be too thick, or should they allow the outcrop of the productive strata, there may be yet a coal district opened here equal in area to the sum of those no...w proved.
AJ*O MINERAL LANDS. 27 Seams of coal, up to three feet in thickness, have been found in this district ; but hitherto no geological survey has determined the thickness or mapped out the extent of the covering rocks, nor have the investiga- tions into the seams known, to exist been systematically conducted.
I may remark that this point is well worthy the attention of the Canadian Geological Survey, and may very properly form a continuation of their work in the Cumberland district. Such an investigation carried into the district already mentioned, between Pictou and New Glasgow, would materially aid a decision, and afford data for renewing the investigation in.
