	Description:
		Abstract: Occurrences of minerals, rocks, and fossils are described
		from about 200 easily accessible localities on either side of the
		Ottawa River from Ottawa - Gatineau (Hull) to North Bay. They are
		reached by following Highway 17 in Ontario and Highway 148 in
		Quebec. Most of the collecting localities are in Renfrew County,
		Ontario. A wide variety of minerals are found in this area, and
		some localities are known for the museum-type specimens collected
		from them. The earliest mines were the apatite and iron mines that
		were operated in the 1880s. Other deposits were subsequently worked
		for corundum, molybdenite, zinc, celestine, garnet, pyrite, beryl,
		marble, limestone, feldspar, rare-element minerals, and dolomite.
		Numerous former feldspar mines as well as deposits of kyanite,
		garnet, muscovite, niobium, and brucite occur in the Nipissing 
		District. Some of these deposits are accessible only by boat. The
		region north of the Ottawa River between Gatineau (Hull) and
		Waltham was formerly mined for iron, mica, feldspar, apatite,
		uranium, molybdenum, lead-zinc, and limestone. A dolomite deposit
		is currently (2005) being operated. Occurrences of brucite,
		pyroaurite, szaibelyite, cordierite, scapolite, and asbestos are
		also known. Farther west, in the Témiscaming - Kipawa area, a wide
		variety of minerals include garnet, kyanite, and amazonite, and the
		rare-mineral suite of the Kipawa complex. In recent years, the 
		Témiscaming area has been the scene of exploration for diamonds,
		and some diamonds have been reported from a location south of Lake
		BeauchOne. Minerals and/or rocks that could be used for lapidary
		purposes include feldspar (peristerite, sunstone), rose quartz,
		graphic granite, and corundum from Renfrew County; feldspar
		(peristerite, amazonite), jaspilite, and graphic granite from the
		North Bay area; peristerite and cordierite from the Quebec side of
		the Ottawa River. Ordovician fossils may be collected from numerous
		roadcuts, rock outcrops, and quarries in the Ottawa - Pembroke and
		Aylmer areas.
