Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A List of Canadian Mineral Occurrences
A quarter Of a century has elapsed Since Hoffmann's Annotated List of the Minerals Of Canada appeared first in the Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada, Vol. VII, Sec. III, 1889, and subsequently in the form Of a revised reprint in the Annual Report of the Geological Survey for 1889. In that list the general descriptive plan followed by Hunt in the Geology of Canada, 1863, was adopted, a complete list of localities being neither intended nor implied. In addition to being an authoritative index Of the knowledge of Canadian mineralogy up to the date of its publication, it was also in a large measure indicative of the progress of mineralogic investigation in Canada during the interval following the appearance of Hunt's earlier report.
