Every party has been working for several months on the research work assigned to them and has come back with valuable observations on regions where the geological structure or eco- nomic possibilities had not yet been established. 1 ' I i H; W ‘Iv These studies are at the same time inspections and summary geological sur- veys. They may be of a special value for those interested in these mining; enterprises or in the adjacent proper- ties. The list, of properties inspected by three of these geologists in the field, namely S. H. Ross, H. M. Bannerman, and W. Nowers Asbury, follows: Les Mines d'Or Bellehumaur, Ltee.
