MOOSE RIVER BASIN, JAMES BAY AREA in the heart of the most active development in the area The Moose River Basin has long been regarded by Government and • other expert geological opinion as being structurally' favorable for oil accumulation. R. E. Holliday, B. A., B. Sc., after a recent visit to the area reports: During a recent visit to this area, I carefully examined your Hobson Township property and adjacent claims. I am glad to report that geological, climatic .and locatidnal conditions are all eonducive to suocess£ul operation, whilst a diamond drill pro- gram recently completed indicates a tonnage of oil shale in the area in such vast quantities as to provide an almost inexhaustable source of petroleum by-products. ' Whilst examining the western bank of the Abitibi River, at a spot very close to the boundary of your most westerly claim on the eastern bank of the Abitibi River, and in the company of your engineer, Mr. Louis Whitman, I observed oil seeping from six different places approximately ten feet above the then water level of the river. THESE SEEPAGES' WERE EMPHATI'OALLY PETROLEUM and not of a ferric or ferrous origin. I recommend that your Company follow closely the results of the well boring and diamond drilling operations under way on adjacent and surrounding territory. • For a complete report write: FUNDAMENTAL SECURITIES .LIMITED 1412 Prudential House, 55 York St. Toronto.
