The greater part of the production of the Millerett mine, however, has come fromthe conglomerate overlying the diabase sill. Topograph}- The general character of the surface of the country is quite similar to that ofother portions of northern Ontario which has been scored by recent glaciation. Viewedfrom hilltops the surrounding horizon presents a series of gentle undulations, with hereand there a break or prominent hill. In detail, however, the surface is very rough andbroken and different geological formations present some differences in surface ridges alternate with swampy depressions abounding in small, swampy lakes, inmuch of the area. The larger lakes usually have considerable rocky shore line and arequite clear. Generally the longe
