Very important maps depicting early development of Muskoka regions.Ex. Libris: Séminaire de Philosophie Montréal on free endpaper.Sir William Edmond Logan was a major contributor to the Geological Survey of Canada. Logan stated: ?The object of the Survey is to ascertain the mineral resources of the country,? and the survey still operates on this principle.

The Geological Survey?s greatest contribution during Logan?s tenure as director was producing reports and maps, which established the fundamentals of Canadian geology; especially important were those for the north shore of Lake Huron and Lake Superior where rich beds of copper, nickel, uranium, iron, platinum, and other metals occur in the ancient rocks of the Precambrian?
