These areas include the Cobalt silver mining camp and the Porcupine gold field, as well as less celebrated mining caps such as Elk Lake. Information on each locality includes name of mine, quarry, or occurrence; minerals or rocks; mode of occurrence; description of the locality with special features of interest to the rock collector; location & access; and references to publications & maps. Most collecting localities are dumps of inactive mines & prospects; road cuts also provide a number of collecting sites. Some famous old mines, no longer accessible, are described for historical interest. Includes glossary and index.
