Octavo (9.5 inches). 6 & 7 Edward VII, Chapter 29 (Statutes of Canada). Caption title, 5 pages. Royal coat of arms. Neatly extracted from a bound volume and expertly mended. This Act created the Department of Mines, which consisted of the Geological Survey (a government department founded in 1841) and the Mines Branch. The Geological Survey continued its original mandate of conducting field surveys and scientific examinations related to the geological structure, mineralogy, paleontology, ethnology, and flora and fauna of Canada. In addition, studies of water resources and forested areas were carried out. The Mines Branch was concerned primarily with minerals, mining, and metallurgical investigations and statistical analysis as they related to related industries in Canada, as well as detailed investigations in mining camps. All findings and research in the form of reports, maps, diagrams, and other illustrative materials were to be published in a timely manner. To complement the two branches of the department, a Museum of Geology and Natural History was to be maintained for a more complete and exact knowledge of the geology, mineralogy, and mineral resources of Canada.…
