The Geology of Ontario: With Special Reference to Economic Minerals (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Geology of Ontario: With Special Reference to Economic Minerals The following sketch of the Geology of Ontario being intended for the use of persons who may not be familiar with the technical terms of Technical terms. Geological science, the writer has endeavoured to avoid these as much as possible, but where it has been necessary to employ them their meanings have been brie&#64258;y given. For the same reason, some elementary geological explanations have been incorporated, and a short glossary of technical words added at the end of the report, to save the non-scientific reader the trouble of referring to geological manuals or text-books. On the other hand, while this report will contain many new facts for geological readers, they must expect to find them stated in simple language. The limits imposed on the writer have permitted only a brief reference to each part of the subject, but it has been his endeavour to allot the space impartially to all. If, therefore, those who may be most interested in any one branch should find the description of it too short to satisfy them, they must consider the claims of all the others. It is hoped that, should the demand warrant it, a fuller report may be issued at a future time. Owing to the uncertainty which has heretofore prevailed in reference to the northern boundary of the province, it will be necessary in attempting a Bounds of the geological description of Ontario to state at the outset how far we understand w my our territory to extend in that direction. For the purposes of description we will assume that the Albany river is the northern boundary all the way to the sea, and that a meridian line from James bay to the head of lake Temiscaming, and the Ottawa river thence to Point Fortune, constitute the eastern boundary. In order to facilitate our description and to prevent repetition we will here present a table, showing in 'their proper order all the divisions of the rocks of the province. see next' page.

Toledo Museum of Art was the location for two glassblowing seminars in 1962, since known as the Toledo Workshops, that ignited a blaze of interest in glass as an artistic medium. Since those earliest days of the Studio Glass movement, color has been a definitive aspect of work in glass. A companion to the exhibition of the same name at the Toledo Museum of Art (June 14 August 26, 2012), this intriguing exploration of color in glass is generously illustrated with works by more than fifty artists. "Color Ignited" traces the cultural, historical, and technological influences that shaped artists attitudes towards the inherent chromatic qualities of glass and its expressive possibilities, from the art by accident approach of studio glass pioneers in the early 1960s to complex, conceptual installations by contemporary artists with international reach. © 2012 Toledo Museum of Art, 11.5 x 10.5 inches
