<p>Excerpt from Economic Minerals of CanadaSilver, is to be credited almost entirely to the mines of British Columbia, where the working of argentiferous galena (or silver-lead) ores is an important and in creasing industry, 'but where it is also found in other associations. In Ontario, rich silver ores proper occur near the west end of Lake Superior and from Quebec a certain amount of silver is exported in association with ores of copper.Copper, is produced by British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec, in the order named, largely in conjunction with gold and nickel, but high prices for the metal are now stimulating the development of copper ores proper.Lead, in Canada, is again almost entirely derived from the mines of British Columbia, although deposits of galena occur also in other provinces.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
