It has been recognized that not only would such felds be of great value to the North and so their presence be easy to believe in by all interested in the country, but actual results from work north of Cochrane would seem to indicate the probability of the hope being well founded. On several occasions The Advance has referred to the very enâ€" couraging results obtained from work carried on by a syndigate of North Bay men on properties north of Cochrane where coal of good quality had been found and the work so far as carried along appeared to indicate that the coal was in commercial quantities. The development of coal fields, howâ€" ever, is an expensive proposition. and this fact more or less handicapped deâ€" velopment. The work so far as carried out by private enterprise, both by the North Bay syndicate referred to, and by other individuals and groups, Was such as to warrant the Ontario Govâ€" ernment in spending a little money for investigation of the big field. The Government party, including geologists and diamond drill men, have been working north of Cochrane and their report is now available according to The Ottawa Journal.

"Tests have indicated that there are‘l extensive deposits of soft lignite of alâ€" most as high grade as that which is being mined profitably in the Drumâ€" heller fields of Alberta. This is the sequence in the province and conâ€" first coal discovery of any â€" conâ€" exnlinration promises to yield heller fields Of AIDErUA,. 1115 15 ie sequence in the province and conâ€" first coal discovery of any â€" conâ€" tinued exploration promises tOo yield interesting results. "Poward the end of June, the Onâ€" tario Government sent geoolgists and a drilling crew into the area to invesâ€" tigate reports from prospectors and since then some five or six holes have been put down, the deepest being little more than 150 feet. "Most encouraging of the findings was one seam which drilling revealed to be about 14 feet thick. Until furâ€" ther examination has been made it will be impossible to determine the extent cf the productive area but The Jourâ€" nal has been quite definitely informed that the quantity and quality so far disclosed justifies continued exploraâ€" "should it finally prove that the field is worth mining development it will be the more important in view of its acâ€" cesibility. Some time ago, the T. and N. O. Railway laid steel as far as the Abitibi Company Dam at Island Falls. This last section of track has been enâ€" tirely unproductive of revenue, but the end of steel is within 25 miles of the coal deposits and any reasonable deâ€" velopment would justify extension of the line. "Exploration in the chief area is being conducted exclusively under the direction of the Ontario Government but it is understood that already variâ€" ous private enterprises are staking claims in the surrounding district. "It is also understood that there is a more remote possibility of the disâ€" covery of oil when deeper drilling is commenced."
