Previous Exploration of the Region The first description of this area was given by Mr. W. J. Wilson, who, in 1901made a reconnaissance survey of the Blanche river for the Geological Survey of Canada. In the Eleventh Report of the Bureau of Mines- Dr. W. G. Miller described a partof the area. The geology of the northeast branch of the Blanche river through thetownships of McElroy and Gauthier is described, as is also that of Beaverhouse lakeand Victoria lake, the latter being called Quasis Scene on Amikoujrami lake showing glaciatedisland with drift removed from end. In 1902 Mr. L. L. Bolton, acting as geologist with 0. L. S. Speights survey party,gave a description of the geological and other features of an area from Round toAbitibi lakes. Mr. Bolton followed the water route, so that his information is neces-sarily confined to a narrow^ stretch of country. He gives a description of rocks alongthe Blanche river, which flows from Sesekinika and Kenogami lakes, and also of theportage route from Sesekinika lake to Amikougami lake. In Boltons report Amikou-gami lake is called Lake Anikojigami, w^hich name implies a collection of lakes joinedby narrow passages. In the Fourteenth Report of the Bureau of Mines W. G. Miller described thegeology of a portion of the township of Boston, in which an iron range had been dis-covered a few years previous: The iron formation or jaspilyte of Boston is similarin character to that of Temagami
