Minister of Mines' Office, May, 1958. Cecil George Hewlett, Associate Geologist with the British Columbia Department of Mines, fell from the headwall of a glacial cirque and was killed instantly on August 14th, 1957. The accident occurred on Monument Peak, in the Purcell Mountains west of Invermere within the Mineral King mine area where, with a field assistant, Dr. Hewlett was engaged in geological mapping. Dr. Hewlett is survived by his father, mother, and two sisters, his wife, Catharine, and their sons, John Phillip, born in November, 1956, and Andrew Cecil, born in February, 1958. Dr. Hewlett was born in Kelowna in 1926 and received his schooling there and in England. He obtained a B.A.Sc. degree in geological engineering from the University of British Columbia in 1949, an M.Sc. from Queen's University, and a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin in 1954. In the course of his training he spent one summer with the Geological Survey of Canada and five summers with New Jersey Zinc Company. He joined the staff of the Department of Mines as Assistant Geologist in 1953, and became Associate Geologist in 1956. In 1956 he became a member of the British Columbia Association of Professional Engineers. He was named the winner of the Peacock Memorial Prize in 1956, given for the best Canadian scientific paper on pure or applied mineralogy. From 1952 to 1956 he was associated with J. T. Fyles in detailed mapping in the Salmo-Pend d'Oreille River area, south of Nelson. He had started geological mapping in the Mineral King mine area at the beginning of the 1957 field season.

The Annual Report records the salient facts in the progress of the mineral industry, also much detail about individual operations, including those undertaken in the search for, exploration of, and development of mineral deposits, as well as the actual winning of material from mineral deposits. The Annual Report of the Minister of Mines now contains introductory sections dealing with Statistics and Departmental Work, followed by sections dealing with Lode Metals; Placer; Structural Materials and Industrial Minerals; Petroleum and Natural Gas; Inspection of Lode Mines, Placer Mines, and Quarries; Coal; and Inspection of Electrical Equipment and Installations at Mines and Quarries, each with its own table of contents. A table listing the properties described, in geographic groupings, precedes the index. An introductory review of the mineral industry and notes at the first of several of the main sections deal generally with the industry or its principal subdivisions. Notes in the various sections deal briefly with exploration or production operations during the year or describe a property in more complete detail, outlining the history of past work and the geological setting as well as describing the workings and the mineral deposits exposed in them. Some notes deal with areas rather than with a single property. The work of the branches of the Department is outlined briefly in the section on Departmental Work. This section is followed by notes dealing briefly with the work of other British Columbia or Federal Government services of particular interest to the mineral industry of British Columbia. Information concerning mine operations and some of the activities of the Inspection Branch of the Department of Mines is contained in the section on Inspection of Lode Mines, Placer Mines, and Quarries, early in the section on Coal and in the section on Inspection of Electrical Equipment and Installations at Mines and Quarries. The section on Statistics begins with an outline of current and past practice in arriving at quantities and calculating the value of the various products. A 7 Review of the Mineral Industry in British Columbia, 1957 The end of 1957 was the eve of British Columbia's centennial, but the centennial of the mining industry was some years earlier. Coal was mined on Vancouver Island for twenty-two years before 1858, the year of establishment of the colony of British Columbia. Available records do not give the yearly production, but show a total of 41,871 long tons of coal, valued at $149,548, mined from 1836 to 1859. Placer-gold production started with the rush of 1858 and in the first year was valued at $705,000. The production of placer gold increased rapidly each year until 1865, when it reached its maximum of $3,491,205. The early mining of coal and placer gold made a major contribution to the economy, and the search for placer led to the rapid exploration of much of the colony. Mining in its various forms has continued to be of prime economic importance for the past 100 years, and still performs the necessary pioneer function of opening up distant parts of the Province. By 1957 the list of products of the mineral industry included a dozen metals, nine industrial minerals, a dozen structural materials, and three fuels, with a combined value exceeding $172,000,000. The accumulated value for the first 100 years amounts to $3,900,000,000, and it is apparent that the 4-billion-dollar mark will be passed well before the end of 1958, British Columbia's centennial year. The combined value of all mineral products for 1957 is well below that for 1956, although it has been exceeded only in that year and in two others, 1951 and 1955. This was largely because prices for most of the principal metals were lower than for 1956 and several metal mines were forced to close or to reduce their output. As a result, the value for principal metals was below the average of recent years, and was $23,000,000 less than the record achieved in 1956. Increased output of industrial minerals and structural materials offset some of this loss, however, and the aggregate value of all mineral production, although about $17,800,000 less than for 1956, was greater than the last five- year average. The relative importance of the various groups of products in 1957 is shown by the percentages of the total value as follows, with the average of the five preceding years in parentheses: Principal metals, 65 (74) percent; miscellaneous metals, 7.4 (8) per cent; industrial minerals, 7.7 (3.5) per cent; structural materials, 15 (9) per cent; fuels, 4.9 (5.6) per cent. The complete figures for prices, quantities, and values are tabulated on pages A 13 to A 48. The metal-mining branch of the industry produces for an international market at world metal prices. British Columbia sales are affected directly by prices in the United States and by the value of United States money in terms of Canadian money. Throughout the year United States money was at a discount in Canada. Settlements for all metals reflect the rate of exchange, which ranged from just over 3 per cent to just under 6 per cent. The average discount for the year was about 4.2 per cent. The price of copper moved downward during the year. The price for electrolytic copper at refineries in eastern United States fell from an average of 33.337 cents for January to 22.418 cents for December. Lead and zinc prices in the United States were stable for the first four months of 1957, then fell fairly steeply in May and June, lead losing 2 cents a pound and zinc 2>lA cents. Later lead lost an additional cent. The price for silver in the United States changed very slightly; some other metal prices changed markedly, notably tungsten ore, for which the December market price was about half the January price. A 8 REVIEW OF THE MINERAL INDUSTRY A 9 Prices have reflected uncertainty about stock-piling and stock-piled metal in the United States and Great Britain. The prospects in the United States are for cessation or greatly reduced buying of metal for stockpiling, and in Great Britain a limited sale of stockpiled copper was announced in 1956. Prices also reflect metal supplied in excess of current demand, and important producers have curtailed production. British Columbia's output of placer gold fell to the lowest point since the beginning of the industry. Lode-gold production was greater than in 1956, mainly because of increased output in the Bridge River district. The closing of copper and silver-lead-zinc operations affected the output of those metals. Copper was reduced drastically, silver and lead were reduced slightly, but the output of zinc increased slightly, and a new quantity record was set, although the value was some $8,000,000 less than in 1956. Export of iron ore was mainly in the last five months of the year, when shipments were resumed by Texada Mines Ltd. and Empire Development Company began shipping. Lode-metal development and exploration were carried on actively in many parts of the Province. Preparations by Western Nickel Limited for production, near Hope; continued diamond drilling by Climax Molybdenum Company, at the molybdenum deposit on Takomkane (Boss) Mountain; and the activities of several large companies exploring for copper in the Highland Valley-Merritt area are worthy of note. Exploration included airborne magnetometer surveys by several companies and by the British Columbia Department of Mines. Work for the Department was done with fixed-wing aircraft and helicopter in areas on Vancouver and Texada Islands known to contain deposits of magnetite (see B.C. Dept. of Mines, Airborne Magnetometer Surveys, 1956-57, published May, 1958). Exploration undertaken by several companies also showed interest in iron ores. Industrial-mineral and structural-materials production both achieved new records, mainly because of materially increased output of asbestos, sulphur, cement, sand and gravel. Sulphur has been entirely a by-product of lode-metal mining, but recovery of sulphur from sour natural gas was started late in 1957 at Taylor. This sulphur was stockpiled and is not credited in 1957 production figures. Production of most structural materials was at a high level, and provision has been made for greatly increased production of Portland cement. The capacity of the plant of the British Columbia Cement Company at Bamberton was increased to 3,500,000 barrels a year, effective in August, and Lafarge Cement of North America Ltd. built a plant on Lulu Island that began operating early in 1958. Petroleum production in British Columbia began in June, 1956. At the end of that year six wells were producing in the Boundary Lake field and four in the Fort St. John field. By the end of 1957 a total of eighteen wells had been produced—ten from the Triassic Schooler Creek formation in the Boundary Lake field, four from the Triassic " C " formation, one from the Permo-Pennsylvanian, one from the basal Gething at Fort St. John, and two from the Nikanassin formation at Buick Creek. All these wells were within about 40 miles of Fort St. John, and all shipped to the XL refinery at Dawson Creek. To the end of October, natural-gas production was for use in the village of Fort St. John. However, the Westcoast Transmission Company pipe-line to the Vancouver area and the International Boundary was completed and in service in November. At Taylor, between Dawson Creek and Fort St. John, an absorption plant to remove sulphur and liquid fractions from the natural gas and a refinery to treat liquid fractions began operating in November. A branch pipe-line for Inland Natural Gas Company Limited, to convey gas to the Okanagan Valley and to Trail and Nelson, was completed. Natural gas is now being produced in large volume to supply the needs of the Greater Vancouver area and communities along the two pipe-lines, and also for export to the United States. Exploration has continued to indicate additional gas and oil fields, the Boundary Lake oilfield has been greatly extended, oil has been found near Mile 100 on the Alaska A 10 REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF MINES, 1957 Highway, and two oil wells at Buick Creek began producing in 1957. Although most activity was in northeastern British Columbia, drilling was done at two sites on the delta of the Fraser River, and a well was started on Saturna Island. Applications for permits indicate interest in several parts of British Columbia, including renewed interest in the Queen Charlotte Islands. Substantial areas are held under permit or lease in the Fernie area, and much exploratory work has been done there. Exploration and drilling have been predominantly in northeastern British Columbia, and all the successful completions have been in that area, in which multiple productive zones feature several of the fields. So far oil wells have been completed in Lower Cretaceous (Gething and Nikanassin), Triassic (Schooler Creek and Triassic "C"), Permo-Pennsylvanian, and Mississippian horizons. The average number employed throughout 1957 in placer, lode, fuel, industrial- mineral, and structural-material mining was 13,257. Major expenditures by those branches of the industry included: Salaries and wages, $56,409,056; fuel and electricity, $8,937,567; process supplies (inclusive of- explosives, chemicals, drill-steel, lubricants, etc.), $24,257,177; Federal taxes, $8,170,826; Provincial taxes, $2,872,807; municipal and other taxes, $907,143; levies for workmen's compensation (including silicosis), unemployment insurance, and other items, $1,983,553. Dividends amounted to $24,247,240. The lode-mining industry spent $30,273,900 in freight and treatment charges on ores and concentrates. Expenditure in exploration for petroleum and natural gas in 1957 was $10,030,878. Statistics The statistics of the mineral industry are collected and compiled and the statistical tables for this Report are prepared by the Bureau of Economics and Statistics, Department of Industrial Development, Trade, and Commerce. In the 1951 Report, extensive rearrangements of tables and of their order were made. The tables in the present Report closely parallel those presented in Reports for years preceding 1951, but additional details have been incorporated, and the present order is considered to make more apparent the relationship between summary tables and the tables giving the details summarized. METHOD OF COMPUTING PRODUCTION The tables of statistics recording the mineral production of the Province for each year are compiled from certified returns made by the operators, augmented by some data obtained from the Royal Canadian Mint and from the operators of customs smelters. The value of each mineral product, in Canadian funds, is calculated at the average price for the year (see p. A 13). The quantities of metals are net after making deductions for losses in smelting and refining. Metals Prior to 1925 the average prices for gold and copper are true average prices, but, as a means of correcting for losses in smelting and refining, the prices of other metals were taken at the following percentages of the year's average price for the metal: Silver, 95 per cent; lead, 90 per cent; and zinc, 85 per cent. For 1925 and subsequent years the value has been calculated using the true average price and the net metal contents, in STATISTICS A 11 accordance with the procedures adopted by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the co-operating Provincial Departments of Mines. Beginning with the Annual Report for 1948, production figures for individual lode- mining operations are the assay contents of the products shipped (ore, concentrates, or bullion), no deductions being made for losses in smelting and refining. In previous Annual Reports the production figures given for individual properties are net, after deductions for smelting and refining losses. Placer Gold The data on placer-gold production were very largely obtained from the Gold Commissioners until 1925. The value of placer gold in dollars is now obtained from returns received annually from the operators. At the old standard price, $20.67 per ounce of fine gold, $17 was regarded as a close approximation of the average value per ounce of crude placer gold produced in British Columbia. Dividing the production reported in dollars by 17 gave the equivalent in crude ounces. The average value $17 per ounce is equivalent to a fineness of 822Vi. Beginning with 1932 the average value per crude ounce has been based on the same fineness but has recognized the varying price of gold. The average price per ounce of crude placer gold for the year is listed on page A 13. Lode Metals, Gross and Net Contents The gross contents are the gold and silver contents of bullion and for ores and concentrates the total assay contents, obtained by multiplying the assay by the weight. The quantities for gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc in Table XV and in " Notes on Metal Mines " are gross. Calculations of the value of production are based on the total assay content for gold and on net content for the other principal metals. These are: In lead ores and concentrates and zinc concentrates, for silver 98 per cent, lead 95 per cent, and zinc 85 per cent of the total assay content; and in copper concentrates, 95 per cent of the silver and the total assay content of copper less 10 pounds per ton of concentrates. Quantities for silver, lead, zinc, and copper in Tables I to VIII, inclusive, are net. Average Metal Prices In the interests of uniformity the Statistical Bureaux of the Provinces and the Dominion Bureau of Statistics use the same average metal prices in valuing mineral production. Up to and including the year 1939 the prices used in evaluating metal and mineral production were:— Gold and silver: The average United States price for the year, as quoted in the Engineering and Mining Journal, converted into Canadian funds at the average exchange rate. Copper, lead, and zinc: For lead and zinc, the average London Metal Market price for the year converted into Canadian funds at the average exchange rate; for copper, until 1932 the New York price for copper was used, thereafter the average London Metal Market price was used. Suspension of trading on the London Metal Exchange in September, 1939, and the controls of metals during the war years necessitated changes from the procedures which had been followed. The method of arriving at the price for gold continued unchanged, but the prices for the metals controlled were those set by the Canadian Metals Controller. In 1945 the controls were largely removed from sales but not from prices. Control of metal prices ended on June 6th, 1947. For 1945 and subsequent years the prices are those computed by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, using information supplied by the principal Canadian refiners of silver and the base metals. A 12 REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF MINES, 1957 In the period 1945-47 the prices received for silver, lead, and zinc sold for use in Canada were substantially less than the prices received for these metals exported to the United States. The prices for silver in 1945 and 1946 and for copper, lead, and zinc in 1946 and 1947 are weighted averages, taking into consideration sales in Canada at the ceiling prices and sales abroad at New York prices converted into Canadian funds. Prices are now arrived at by the methods as given in the .footnotes to table of average prices on page A 13. Fuel Coal In 1926 a change was made in computing coal and coke statistics. The practice in former years had been to list as coke production only the coke made in bee-hive ovens, the coal used in making it not being listed; coke made in by-product ovens was not listed as coke, but the coal used in making this coke was credited as coal production. The result was that both the coal and the coke production figures were incomplete. Starting with the 1926 Annual Report, the standard practice of the Bureau of Statistics, Ottawa, was adopted. This consists of crediting all coal produced, including that used in making coke, as primary mine production. Coke-making is considered a manufacturing industry. As the data are of interest to the mining industry, Table X is included in the Report to show the total coke produced in the Province, together with by-products, and the values given by the producers. The pre-1926 data have now been reworked and brought into conformity with current practice. Table IXa lists the full mine output (gross) produced and its net value, and these figures are incorporated in Table I, in the total mine production for the Province. Table X gives the complete data for coke, gas, and by-products manufactured for the period 1895 to 1925, and for each year subsequent to 1925. Up to and including the year 1947, production was recorded in long tons (2,240 pounds). Beginning in 1948, production is given in short tons (2,000 pounds). The quantity of coal produced in the preceding years has been recalculated in short tons. The average price for coal, listed year by year (see p. A 13), is the total value divided by the quantity. Up to and including 1945, the quantity is the gross mine output; for 1946 and subsequent years, the quantity is the quantity sold and used. For 1946 and subsequent years, the value (Tables I, III, VHa, IXa, IXb, and IXc) is the amount realized from sales of coal, at colliery loading points, plus the colliery valuation of coal used under companies' boilers and in making coke. For 1946 and subsequent years the quantity sold and used is shown in Table IXc. " Use " includes coal used under company stationary and locomotive boilers, and used in making coke. Washery loss and changes in stocks, year by year, are shown in the table " Collieries of British Columbia, Production and Distribution by Collieries and by Districts," page 121 of this Report. Natural Gas Commercial production of natural gas began in 1954. The production shown in Tables I, III, VIIa, and VIIIa is gas sold in Fort St. John. The figures are compiled from the Crown royalty statements filed monthly with the Department of Mines by the producer. The quantity is reported as thousands of cubic feet at standard conditions (14.4 pounds per square inch pressure, 60° F. temperature). Petroleum Commercial production of petroleum began in 1956. The figures shown in Tables I, III, VIIa, and VIIIa are compiled from the Crown royalty statements filed monthly with the Department of Mines by the producer. The quantity is reported in barrels (35 imperial gallons = 1 barrel).

Departmental Work ADMINISTRATION BRANCH The Administration Branch is responsible for the administration of the Provincial laws regarding the acquisition of rights to mineral and to coal, petroleum and natural gas, and deals with other departments of the Provincial service for the Department or for any branch. Gold Commissioners, Mining Recorders, and Sub-Mining Recorders, whose duties are laid down in the " Mineral Act" and the " Placer-mining Act," administer these Acts and other Acts relating to mining. Mining Recorders, in addition to their own functions, may also exercise the powers conferred upon Gold Commissioners with regard to mineral claims within the mining division for which they have been appointed. Similar duties may be performed by Mining Recorders with regard to placer claims but not in respect of placer-mining leases. Recording of location and of work upon a mineral claim as required by the "Mineral Act" and upon a placer claim or a placer-mining lease as required by the " Placer-mining Act" must be made at the office of the Mining Recorder for the mining division in which the claim or lease is located. Information concerning claims and leases and concerning the ownership and standing of claims and leases in any mining division may be obtained from the Mining Recorder for the mining division in which the property is situated or from the Department's offices at Victoria, and Room 104, 739 West Hastings Street, Vancouver. Officials in the offices of the Gold Commissioner at Victoria and the Gold Commissioner at Vancouver act as Sub-Mining Recorders for all mining divisions. Sub-Mining Recorders, who act as forwarding agents, are appointed at various places throughout the Province. They are authorized to accept documents and fees, and forward them to the office of the Mining Recorder for the correct mining division. Officials and their offices in various parts of the Province are listed in the table on page A 50. Central Records Offices (Victoria and Vancouver) The transcripts of all recordings made in Mining Recorders' offices throughout the Province are sent to the office of the Chief Gold Commissioner in Victoria twice each month, and include the names of lessees of reverted Crown-granted mineral claims. These records and maps showing the approximate positions of mineral claims held by record and of placer-mining leases may be consulted by the public during office hours at Victoria and at the office of the Gold Commissioner at Vancouver, Room 104, 739 West Hastings Street. The maps conform in geographical detail, size, and number to the reference and mineral reference maps issued by the Legal Surveys Branch of the Department of Lands and Forests, and the approximate positions of mineral claims held by record and of placer-mining leases are plotted from details supplied by the locators. Provision has been made to supply the general public, on request to the office of the Chief Gold Commissioner, with copies of the maps. The charge for these maps is $1 plus 5 per cent tax for each sheet.

ANALYTICAL AND ASSAY BRANCH By S. W. Metcalfe, Acting Chief Analyst and Assayer Rock Samples During 1957 the chemical laboratory in Victoria issued reports on 1,476 samples from prospectors* and Departmental engineers. A laboratory examination of a prospector's sample generally consists of the following: (1) A spectrographic analysis to determine if any base metals are present in interesting percentages; (2) assays for precious metals, and for base metals shown by the spectographic analysis to be present in interesting percentages. The degree of radioactivity is measured on all samples submitted by prospectors and Departmental engineers; these radiometric assays are not listed below in the table. On March 26th, 1957, fire destroyed the chemical labratory, causing a considerable loss and a cessation of analytical work during the months of April and May. Temporary facilities were provided in the Coal and Petroleum Control Laboratory, where general analytical work commenced again in June. The spectrograph was totally destroyed, and its duties were taken over to some extent by the Phillips X-ray spectograph. Spectrographic analyses reported in the following table showing the distribution of laboratory reports were performed prior to the fire and therefore do not include work done with the X-ray equipment. It is hoped that a new spectrograph will be installed shortly, when all samples submitted to the laboratory will be examined for metals which cannot be detected by X-ray spectrography. The laboratory reports were distributed in the following manner among prospectors who were not grantees, prospectors who were grantees under the " Prospectors' Grubstake Act," and Departmental engineers:— Samples Spectrographic Analyses Assays Prospectors (not grantees).. Prospectors (grantees) Departmental engineers Totals 1,103 174 199 159 7 24 2,597 432 386 1,476 190 3,415 *A reasonable number of samples are assayed, without charge, for a prospector who makes application for free assays and who satisfies the Acting Chief Analyst that prospecting is his principal occupation during the summer months. A form for use in applying for free assays may be obtained from the office of any Mining Recorder. A 54 REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF MINES, 1957 Mineralogical specimens submitted for identification and rocks for classification are examined by the Mineralogical Branch of the Department. Coal, Petroleum and Gas Samples Eighty-nine samples were analysed. Of these, nineteen were samples of formation water from wells being drilled for oil and gas; fifty were samples of coal for proximate analysis and calorific value; four were soils tested for oil seepage; seven were crude-oil samples for examination; one was a sample of gas for analysis and calorific value; two were samples of oil skimmed off a mud pit and examined for the presence of petroleum; two were samples of water tested for oil seepage; one was a sample of water and sand examined for indication of gas and oil; one was a sample of water containing a sediment examined for evidence of petroleum; two were samples of sand and gravel tested for oil seepage. Police and Coroners' Exhibits Sixty-four cases of a chemical-legal nature, making 153 exhibits, were completed for the Attorney-General's Department. Nineteen cases were analyses of alcohol only in blood; five cases were for alcohol in blood and other organs; four cases involved carbon monoxide poisons (two of these had in addition methyl alcohol in the blood); and in nine cases viscera were analysed for all possible poisons. Twelve cases were analyses of liquor and six were analyses of gasoline for colouring matter added in accordance with the regulations of the " Coloured Gasoline Tax Act." Narcotics were sought in six cases received from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The remaining three cases were of arson, robbery with violence, and suspected wilful damage to a car. On three occasions evidence was presented in Court. Miscellaneous Samples For the Purchasing Commission, specification tests were made on eleven samples of anti-freeze and on one jelly powder. One tank was examined to determine the nature of the external and internal coating, and one pad of Terylene fibres was examined. For the Taxation Branch of the Department of Finance, eight samples of gasoline were analysed for marker dyestuff. For the Department of Health and Welfare, one sample of calcium carbonate was examined by spectrographic and X-ray methods. For the British Columbia Power Commission, one sample of calcium carbonate was examined by chemical, spectrographic, and X-ray methods. For the Testing Branch of the Department of Highways, one sample of anhydrous calcium chloride pellets was examined by chemical, spectrographic, and X-ray methods. For the Protection Division of the Forest Service, six wooden rods, using four as controls, were examined, to determine whether they had been manufactured from logs which had been immersed in salt water. For the Department of Public Works, the disk from a time clock was examined to determine the intervals at which the clock had been punched. For the Department of Mining and Metallurgy at the University of British Columbia, two samples were analysed for titanium. Examinations for Assayers Provincial Government examinations for certificates of competency and licence to practise assaying in British Columbia were held at Trail in June and December. In June ten candidates were examined; seven passed, two obtained supplemental, and one failed. In December three candidates were examined at Trail; two passed and one failed.

DEPARTMENTAL WORK A 57 MINERALOGICAL BRANCH Field work by officers of the Mineralogical Branch includes geological mapping and examination of mineral deposits, and studies related to ground-water and engineering geology. The results are published partly in the Annual Report of the Minister of Mines and partly in a series of bulletins. The Mineralogical Branch supplies information regarding mineral deposits and the mineral industry, in response to inquiries received in great number. The activities of the Branch also include identification of rock and mineral specimens submitted directly by prospectors and others, or through the Analytical Branch. Professional Staff On December 31st, 1957, the professional staff included the following engineers classified as geologists or mineral engineers: H. Sargent, Chief of the Mineralogical Branch; M. S. Hedley, S. S. Holland, J. W. McCammon, N. D. McKechnie, G. E. P. Eastwood, J. T. Fyles, A. Sutherland Brown, J. M. Carr, H. W. Nasmith, A. F. Shepherd, and J. E. Hughes. Dr. C. G. Hewlett died accidentally in the course of field work, August 14th.* J. E. Hughes was granted leave in October to continue postgraduate studies at McGill University. Technical editing of the Annual Report of the Minister of Mines and of other publications was directed by M. S. Hedley. Copy for printing was prepared under the direction of Mrs. C. C. Savage, who serves as editor for English. Messrs. Hedley and Holland assisted in directing and supervising field work. Most of the other members of the professional staff are assigned to mapping the geology of the selected areas and of mineral deposits. The following have special assignments: J. W. McCammon, industrial minerals and structural materials; H. W. Nasmith, ground-water and engineering geology; A. F. Shepherd, records and library. Field Work Systematic field work for the Mineralogical Branch in 1957 was done by eleven members of the permanent staff, a geologist engaged for the field season, and nine temporary field assistants. A. Sutherland Brown extended geological reconnaissance in the Cariboo Mountains from Bowron Lake to the Rocky Mountain Trench via Goat River. Subsequently he examined mineral properties at McLeese Lake, Takomkane Mountain, and in the southern interior. At the beginning of the field season he examined areas where airborne surveys had indicated magnetic anomalies on Quadra Island. J. M. Carr continued geological mapping of the Highland Valley area. G. E. P. Eastwood and J. T. Fyles completed the most essential geological mapping for a section from the head of Gainer Creek to the head of Trout Lake. Fyles also spent two weeks in the Ainsworth area, preliminary to a proposed future campaign of detailed geological mapping on the west side of Kootenay Lake. C. G. Hewlett began detailed mapping of the area containing the Mineral King mine. This work was terminated by his death on August 14th. S. S. Holland made geological studies of sites proposed for power development on the Fraser River from the Pavilion site to Big Bar. He spent the major part of the field season examining beach and inshore sands at Wreck Bay and Cape Caution and in the northeastern part of Graham Island. H. W. Nasmith contributed to the investigation by studying physiography and glacial history of northeastern Graham Island. These investigations were undertaken to assist in evaluating such deposits as sources of iron and titanium. A report on this investigation, entitled " Investigation of Beach Sands," has been published (March, 1958). Holland and Nasmith spent about a month on geological * See page A 4. A 58 REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF MINES, 1957 reconnaissance bearing on proposals for power development in the area including Taseko Lake, Chilko Lake, and Bishop River. J. E. Hughes continued mapping the stratigraphy and structure of post-Palaeozoic rocks in the area traversed by the John Hart Highway between the West Pine bridge and Commotion Creek. J. W. McCammon made ground investigations where magnetic anomalies had been indicated by airborne magnetometer surveys in Texada Island. McCammon spent the major part of the field season investigating occurrences of clay, shale, and limestone in the Prince George, John Hart Highway, and Peace River areas, and making a reconnaissance from Falkland to Louis Creek bearing on the possible occurrence of gypsum deposits. He also spent a short period reviewing structural materials being used by the building trade in the lower mainland. N. D. McKechnie examined mineral properties on Vancouver Island and examined areas on Salmon River and Campbell Lake, where airborne surveys had indicated magnetic anomalies. He also supervised removal of bulk samples of coal from two seams on the Pine River. Coal of fair to good coking quality had been indicated by some tests on samples from diamond-drill holes. Although surface coal was stripped off before the samples were taken, it was found that partial oxidation had destroyed the coking properties of the coal, which, however, is of high heat value. H. W. Nasmith made a soil study on the Kettle River to assist the soil survey being made by the Department of Agriculture, made a study of ground-water in part of the Highland Valley area, and a study of an ice-impounded lake and other geological features bearing on road location in Bear Pass. He collaborated with S. S. Holland in studies already mentioned. H. P. Trettin was employed for the field season to make a geological study of the area along the Fraser River from Lillooet to Big Bar. This work was under the general direction of Professor K. C. McTaggart, retained as consultant, and is to be continued in 1958. Airborne Magnetometer Surveys and Related Ground Investigations.—In 1956 airborne magnetometer surveys were made for the Government of British Columbia on Texada Island, Quadra Island, and in the Campbell River-Salmon River area on Vancouver Island. In 1957 helicopter-borne magnetometer surveys were made in selected areas in the Quatsino Sound-Nimpkish Lake-Head Bay area on the west coast of Vancouver Island. The results of the airborne magnetometer surveys have been released to the public as prints of twelve maps. In the early part of the 1957 field season A. Sutherland Brown, J. W. McCammon, and N. D. McKechnie made ground studies in sections where anomalies had been indicated by the 1956 airborne magnetometer work. A report on these investigations has been published, entitled "Airborne Magnetometer Surveys, 1956- 1957." PETROLEUM AND NATURAL GAS BRANCH Staff J. D. Lineham, Chief Petroleum Engineer and Chief of Petroleum and Natural Gas Branch Victoria R. R. McLeod, Senior Petroleum Engineer and Chairman of the Board of Arbitration Victoria A. N. Lucie-Smith, Petroleum Engineer and Chairman of the Conservation Committee Victoria S. S. Cosburn, Mineral Engineer (Geology) Victoria T. A. Mackenzie, Engineering Assistant Victoria W. L. Ingram, Conservation Engineer Dawson Creek G. E. Blue, Conservation Engineer Dawson Creek H. B. Fulton, Assistant Geologist Dawson Creek P. K. Huus, Engineering Assistant Dawson Creek DEPARTMENTAL WORK A 59 The Petroleum and Natural Gas Branch is responsible for the administration of the regulation, under the " Petroleum and Natural Gas Act," governing the drilling of wells, and the production and conservation of oil and natural gas. It was established in April, 1956, although it had functioned, nominally under the Inspection Branch, since April 1st, 1953. During 1957 an office was maintained at 1805 One Hundred and Eighth Avenue, Dawson Creek, in one of three Pan Abode three-bedroom housing units constructed in 1956. The office unit was also used as bachelor quarters, the other two units being occupied as married quarters. A room in the new government building in Fort St. John was used as an auxiliary office and for the storage of engineering equipment. The following members were appointed by Order in Council to the Board of Arbitration established under the authority of the "Petroleum and Natural Gas Act": R. R. McLeod, Department of Mines, Victoria, Chairman; S. G. Preston, Department of Agriculture, Prince George; and A. W. Hobbs, Department of the Attorney-General, Victoria. The Board of Arbitration grants right of entry by oil operators upon alienated land and determines conditions of entry and just compensation therefor. It also terminates the right of entry when the operator has ceased to use the land. A Conservation Committee was also established under the authority of the " Petroleum and Natural Gas Act," and the following members were appointed by Order in Council: A. N. Lucie-Smith, Department of Mines, Chairman; N. D. McKechnie, Department of Mines; and M. H. A. Glover, Bureau of Economics and Statistics, all of Victoria. The duties of the Committee are:— (1) To act as an advisory committee to the Minister on such questions of conservation that the Minister, in writing, shall refer to the Committee for their consideration and recommendation. (2) To deal with such questions of conservation and production in the various fields of British Columbia as may arise between two or more operators in the same field or between operators and the Branch when appeals on such questions are made to the Minister and referred by him to the Committee. Staff Changes A. N. Lucie-Smith joined the Victoria staff as petroleum engineer on April 1st, 1957. On October 10th he was appointed Chairman of the Conservation Committee. G. E. Blue joined the Dawson Creek staff on May 6th, 1957. H. B. Fulton joined the Dawson Creek staff on November 12th, 1957. GRUB-STAKING PROSPECTORS Under authority of the " Prospectors' Grub-stake Act," as amended in March, 1944, the Department of Mines has provided grub-stakes each year since 1943 to a limited number of applicants able to qualify. The maximum grub-stake is $300, but an additional amount up to $200 may be added for travelling expenses to and from the prospecting area. To qualify at the present time the Department requires that the applicant shall be a physically fit male British subject, holder of a valid free miner's certificate, who has been resident in the Province during the year preceding his application for a grub-stake, or who has been honourably discharged from Her Majesty's services, who is between the ages of 18 and 70, and who can identify common rocks and minerals. It is required that in order to obtain the maximum grub-stake, he agree to spend at least sixty days actually prospecting for lode occurrences in one area of his choice in British Columbia considered favourable by officers of the Department of Mines. If he prospects a lesser time, the grant will be reduced proportionately. In the past, rebates have been recovered from grantees to whom payments have exceeded the proper amount for the time and effort devoted to prospecting. A 60 REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF MINES, 1957 The grantee must not accept pay from any other source for services rendered during the period credited to the grub-stake. At the end of the season he shall provide the Department with a diary and maps outlining his activities while working under the grubstake. Any discoveries made, staked, and recorded are exclusively his own property. Statistical information covering the grub-stake programme since its inception is given in the following table:— Grub-stake Statistics Field Season Approximate Expenditure Men Grub-staked Samples and Specimens Received at Department Laboratory Mineral Claims Recorded 1943 1944 $18,500 27,215 27,310 35,200 36,230 35,975 31,175 26,800 19,385 19,083 17,850 19,989 21,169 20,270 22,000 90 105 84 95 91 92 98 78 63 50 41 48 47 47 46 773 606 448 419 469 443 567 226 255 251 201 336 288 163 174 87 135 1945 181 1946 1947.. .. _ _ 162 142 1948 ... 138 1949 103 1950 95 1951. 137 1952 95 1953.. _ 141 1954 123 1955 183 1956 . ... . .... 217 1957 101 Samples and specimens received from grub-staked prospectors are spectrographed, assayed, and tested for radioactivity. Mineralogical identifications are made on request. Of the forty-six grantees in 1957, nineteen were given grants for the first time, and only four of these proved unsatisfactory. Three grantees who had received previous grub-stakes were also struck from the list for unsatisfactory work. Five grantees, who for various reasons were unable to fulfil the terms and conditions of the grant, received only partial payment or returned the grub-stake. Six grantees reached the maximum age limit and cannot qualify for further grub-staking. The 1957 season was one of average performance, and prospecting was done chiefly in the Cassiar, Manson Creek, and Vancouver Island areas, as well as across the southern part of the Province. D. H. Rae again gave able service in interviewing applicants and supervising grantees in the field. MUSEUMS The Department has a large exhibit of mineral rock specimens in the Douglas Building, Victoria; collections are also displayed in the joint office in Vancouver and in the offices of the Inspectors of Mines in Nelson and Prince Rupert. Specimens from the collection in Victoria, accumulated in a period of more than sixty years, are displayed in cases on the fourth floor of the Douglas Building. The collection includes specimens from many of the mines and prospects in the Province, and also specimens of type rocks and special minerals from British Columbia and elsewhere. British Columbia material includes specimens collected by officers of the Department of Mines and specimens donated by property-owners. The collection also includes type specimens purchased from distributers. Other valued specimens or groups of specimens have been donated or loaned to the museum. ROCK AND MINERAL SPECIMENS Information regarding collections of specimens of rocks and minerals available to prospectors and schools in British Columbia may be obtained from the Chief of the Mineralogical Branch. DEPARTMENTAL WORK A 61 PUBLICATIONS Annual Reports of the Minister of Mines, bulletins, and other publications of the Department, with prices charged for them, are listed in the Department of Mines List of Publications available from the Chief of the Mineralogical Branch. Publications may be obtained from the offices of the Department in Victoria and elsewhere in the Province. They are also available for reference use in the Department's library (Mineralogical Branch) at Victoria, in the joint office in Vancouver, and in the offices of the Inspectors of Mines in Nelson and Prince Rupert, as well as in public libraries. MAPS SHOWING MINERAL CLAIMS, PLACER CLAIMS, AND PLACER-MINING LEASES From the details supplied by the locators, the approximate positions of mineral claims held by record and of placer-mining leases are shown on maps that may be inspected in the central records offices of the Department of Mines in Victoria and in Vancouver. Copies of these maps may be obtained on request. The boundaries of surveyed claims and leases are shown on the reference maps and other maps of the British Columbia Department of Lands and Forests. JOINT OFFICES OF THE BRITISH COLUMBIA DEPARTMENT OF MINES AND THE DEPARTMENT OF MINES AND TECHNICAL SURVEYS, CANADA. The Provincial Department's Inspector and Resident Engineer, the Gold Commissioner and Mining Recorder for the Vancouver Mining Division, and the officers of the Federal Geological Survey occupy one suite of offices. All official information relating to mining is now available to the public in the one suite of offices in Vancouver. The services offered to the public include technical information on mining, the identification of mineral specimens, distribution of Federal and Provincial mining publications, a reference library, a display of rocks and minerals, and a central records office. Topographic Mapping and Air Photography Topographic mapping and air photography were continued by the Surveys and Mapping Branch of the British Columbia Department of Lands and Forests and by the Canadian Government Departments of Mines and Technical Surveys and of National Defence during 1957. In addition, the Legal Surveys Division of the British Columbia Surveys and Mapping Branch was responsible for cadastral surveys of all Crown lands in the Province, and during the field season carried out surveys of 14,750 acres in the Peace River District for settlement purposes, surveyed the rights-of-way of new highways in the vicinities of Princeton and Vanderhoof, also various lots and subdivisions for alienation and reserve totalling fifty-three parcels. In the course of such work, 216 old lot corners were replaced by permanent monuments. The Air Division of the British Columbia Surveys and Mapping Branch continued its programme of compiling interim maps at a scale of 2 inches to 1 mile showing planimetry, watershed boundaries, and cadastral surveys, and completed a total area of 37,400 square miles. The total area mapped is now 194,000 square miles. The Air Division also flew 18,020 square miles of new photography at various scales, adding 13,510 photographs to the Air Photo Library. The total number of air photographs (Federal and Provincial) now on hand in the Air Photo Library at Victoria is 427,553. The Topographic Division of the British Columbia Surveys and Mapping Branch completed control for twenty-four half-sheets of the National Topographic 1:50,000 series in the Sukunka and Parsnip River areas, also additional control in the Parsnip- Peace River Valleys to provide for 1-inch-to-1,000-feet pondage maps. Other parties obtained control for 1:25,000 scale mapping in the Lower Fraser Valley, special mapping in the Prince George and Lac la Hache areas, and completed a triangulation tie between the Gataga River in the Rocky Mountain Trench and Muncho Lake on the Alaska Highway. The Geographic Division of the British Columbia surveys and Mapping Branch produced fourteen lithographed maps, of which nine were completely new editions, including three of the National Topographic l-inch-to-2-miles series and one of the 1-inch- to-10-miles series. The Canadian Government Departments of Mines and Technical Surveys and of National Defence, working in close co-operation with Provincial agencies during 1957, completed the field work for thirty-six half-sheets of the National Topographic 1:50,000 series in the Province. The 1957 Annual Report of the Deputy Minister of Lands contains key maps indicating coverage by air photographs and by topographic and interim maps. Further information concerning these or the corresponding Federal mapping may be obtained from the Director, Surveys and Mapping Branch, Department of Lands and Forests, Victoria. A 62 Department of Mines and Technical Surveys The Canadian Government Department of Mines and Technical Surveys, created by an Act of Parliament introduced in November, 1949, took over most of the branches and functions related to mining of the former Department of Mines and Resources. The Mines Branch, Geological Survey of Canada, and Surveys and Mapping Branch are the three branches of the Department of the most direct interest to the mining industry. Brief reference to the work of the Surveys and Mapping Branch in British Columbia is made in the preceding note headed " Topographic Mapping and Air Photography." A note on the Geological Survey of Canada follows this paragraph and is followed by a note on the Mines Branch. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA By an arrangement made at the time the Province of British Columbia entered Confederation, geological investigations and mapping in the Province are carried on by the Geological Survey of Canada. Several geological parties are in the field each year. Many excellent reports and maps covering areas of British Columbia have been issued by the Geological Survey of Canada, and they have made available a great amount of information that has been of much benefit to the mining and prospecting activities in British Columbia. A branch office of the Geological Survey of Canada is maintained in Vancouver. Maps and reports on British Columbia can be obtained there. J. E. Armstrong is in charge of this office. Field Work by Geological Survey of Canada in British Columbia, 1957 H. H. Bostock made a special study of a group of granitic dykes about 4 miles southwest of Penticton. H. Frebold continued a detailed study of the Jurassic fauna and stratigraphy of southern British Columbia, examining strata in the Nelson West Half (82 F, W. Vi) map- area. W. L. Fry continued a detailed study of the Tertiary paleobotany and stratigraphy of southwestern and south central British Columbia. Particular attention was paid to the Princeton and Coalmont areas. J. G. Fyles continued, and nearly completed, the field study and mapping of the unconsolidated deposits of the east coast of Vancouver Island between Cumberland and Campbell River. H. Gabrielse nearly completed geological field work in Cry Lake (104 I) map-area, which had been partly mapped by Operation Stikine in 1956. E. C. Halstead completed a ground-water survey of the Lower Fraser Valley (from Hope to the Strait of Georgia). E. J. W. Irish completed field work within Charlie Lake (94 A) map-area, which includes the Fort St. John gasfield. G. B. Leech continued the geological mapping of the Fernie 4-mile map-area (82 G, W. Vt.). J. E. Reesor completed the geological mapping of the Lardeau 4-mile map-area (82 K, E.V2), and began what will be an exhaustive, continuing study of Canadian granitic rocks. J. G. Souther refined and largely completed the reconnaissance mapping done in 1956 by Operation Stikine in Telegraph Creek (104 G) and Iskut River (104 B) map- areas. A 63 A 64 REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF MINES, 1957 H. W. Tipper completed the geological mapping of the Anahim Lake 4-mile map- area (93 C), and started the mapping of the Quesnel 4-mile map-area (93 B). R. A. Price completed the geological mapping of the Flathead North map-area (82 G/7, E. V6). This work extended into Alberta. Publications of the Geological Survey A total of fifteen publications of the Geological Survey of Canada relating to British Columbia was received by the British Columbia Department of Mines in 1957. A list of the fifteen publications will be supplied on request. MINES BRANCH The Mines Branch has branches dealing with mineral resources, mineral dressing and process metallurgy, physical metallurgy, radioactivity, and fuels and explosives. A total of eleven publications of the Mines Branch pertaining to British Columbia were received in 1957 by the British Columbia Department of Mines. A list of these publications will be supplied on request. They included tabular pamphlets dealing with coal mines, gold mines, stone quarries, petroleum refineries, and milling plants in Canada.
