Excerpt from The Gold Fields of Nova Scotia: A Prospectors Handbook That Nova Scotia offers a splendid field for develop ments in connection with her gold deposits, is to repeat a truism, yet there are those who after cursory glimp sing of the ground floor are bold enough to dogmatize to the contrary and the strangest part of such a condit ion is that their ill considered opinions and wrongly reached conclusions at times have a weight attached to them neither justified by the writer's knowledge of his subject, his opportunities for study, or his ability to assimilate the outstanding features which make this province unique in respect to its mineral deposits.

Excerpt from Report on the Gold Property of the New York and Nova Scotia Gold Mining Company: With an Introduction on the General Structure and Geology of the Nova Scotia Gold Fields Over very considerable areas the glacial scouring has been so thorough, that nothing whatever is left on the rocks but the grooves and. Striae, which accompany their polish. In other cases, the glacial drift is seen composed of angular, rarely round ed, fragments of quartzite and clay slate, embedded in a tough clay, resting on the surface of the polished rocks. This detrital matter is auriferous, but the large amount of coarse, angular frag ments of rocks would render it very difficult to wash, even when it occurs in situations where water could be conveniently obtained for sluicing. The gold which it contains is coarse and angular, often still attached to the quartz, and showing but little evidence of long transportation. The Boulder Lot at Sherbrooke, has yielded a considerable amount of gold from this glacial drift, and is rewarding its owners handsomely. Probably too little attention has been given in the Province to this source of gold. The quartz veins alone having been the chief object of attention.
