Excerpt from Report on the Mining Operations in the Province of Quebec: For the Year 1909
During the session of 1909, the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Quebec enacted some amendments to the Quebec Mining Law. The changes are important and we deem it advisable to give a summary of the principles. As to details regarding the steps to be followed in order to conform to them, they are given in the text of the Mining Law of the Province of Quebec and in a small pamphlet entitled: The Miner's Guide, which may be obtained on application to the Bureau of Mines, Quebec.
