Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book provides a compelling investigation into a reported discovery of phosphate rock near Banff, Alberta, in 1915. The discovery sparked interest due to the potential value of such deposits for western lands, as phosphate is essential for producing superphosphate fertilizers. The author, a mining engineer, was commissioned to examine the reported discovery by the Commission of Conservation. Their findings determined a definite phosphate horizon within the Rocky Mountain Quartzite series and collected samples at various locations for analysis. The identified phosphate horizon lies in the upper portion of the quartzite, below the Permo-Pennsylvanian contact. The book details the author's examination of the Rocky Mountain Quartzite for phosphatic horizons in several fault-blocks, including the Sawback Range, Sundance Canyon-Mount Norquay, Mount Rundle-Tunnel Mountain-Stoney Squaw Mountain-Cascade Mountain, and Carrot or Stoney Creek-Devil's Canyon belts. The author notes that the phosphate is uniformly black in color, extremely fine-grained and compact, and resembles igneous rock. The book offers a thorough analysis of the phosphate's composition and discusses the possible origins of the deposit. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the potential economic importance of the phosphate deposits near Banff. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
