e of Canada, ads, With the
gradual settlement of the land along
the banks of the St, Lawrence River
and the caionieing of the West, miner-
al discoveries of immense value were
constantly being made, Some of the
reports of prospectors were written
in such glowing tern's that the public
was of the opinion that they Were
grossly exaggerated and for a long
time little money was available for
development, , however, as time wont
on mineral development was under-
taken by a few courageous lnveatore
who ]rad faith in the prospectors, and
the handsome returns received on
their investment -have resulted In a
ebange of public opinion..
Estimates of the mineral wealth of
Canada have been made from time to
time, but these vary re much, and as
little cognizance has been taken of
the unprospected regions of the North,
little faith can be put in them, and
many Canadians have come to believe
that the mineral resources of tete coun-
try'are "unlimited. Of coarse, this
is not so, but such estimates as bave
been made more than prove that the
report of the pioneer prospectors were
not exaggerated and in many eases
were unduly conservative.
