Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Building and Ornamental Stones of Canada, Vol. 2: Maritime Provinces The field work in connexion with the present report dealing with the building and ornamental stones of the Maritime Provinces was carried on during the summer of 1911, and occupied a period of two and one-half months. In all, about sixty quarries were visited, as well as a considerable number of abandoned quarries and prospects. Owing to the difficulty of access, and the unsatisfactory outcrop of stone on undeveloped or long abandoned properties, it was found that little additional information was to be gained by an actual visit. In a country where the occurrences of stone, more or less suitable to purposes of construction, are practically innumerable, it was found necessary to use considerable discretion in the selection of localities worthy of close examination. While the present report is by no means confined to quarries in actual operation, it makes no pretense of including 'every opening that has been made for the production of building stone. It is thought, however, that every important district is represented by a typical example, and that every stone, commercially available at the present time, has received due consideration. The writer desires to acknowledge the kindness of all the quarry owners and operators throughout the district, whose willingness to impart information has greatly facilitated the preparation of this report.
