  • Bruce Mines & Its Railways
    BRUCE MINES & ITS RAILWAYS LEFT & BELOW: The 4-4-0 to the left (Courtesy Mrs. R. Lilly of Bruce Mines) is Rock Lake Mining Company’s #2, their #1 being an 0-4-0T origi- nally at Rock Lake. The history of these locomotives is not well-known, but #2 is not the Grand Trunk #156, below in an undated National Archives of Canada photo (PA 194513) at Midland, ON. There are significant dif- ferences between the two engines like positioning of the domes and bell, the style of pilot and spokes or lack of them on the lead truck. It is known the former Grand Trunk locomotive did become the regular “road” engine for the Bruce Mines & Algoma Railway and is seen in the wreck photo shown later. RLM #2 was with the railway until about 1908 but its operationl his- tory is unknown. See the photos of the “burnt” locomotive further on. Bruce Mines was named for Lord Bruce Elgin, Governor General of Canada 1847-54. Copper mining was done on Lake Huron’s north shore from the mid 1840s until almost 1870. In the late 1880s the area had its first contact with rail- ways as Canadian Pacific built a branch line from Algoma Mills to Sault Ste. Marie and used some of the quartz tailings from past mining (locally known as skimpings) for ballasting its track. In 1898, two new copper mining concerns came to the “Bruce”, one at the town, the other at Rock Lake, ten miles north. The “town” company, Bruce Copper Mines (BCM), spent large sums of money on surface projects including an ore concentrator, coal dock and over a mile of railway line connecting mill, shafts and dock.

Marie, Ontario, is based on both published and unpublished material and on personal knowledge of the area of some associates of David S. Robertson 8c Associates Limited. The mineral rights are held by the Indians in total for the Reserve, most of Kehoe Township and certain adjacent areas and the gold and silver alone are held by them in other parts of Kehoe and adjacent townships. The Garden River Indian Reserve and the adjacent area are underlain by metavolcanic, metasedimentary and acid igneous rocks of the Archean era and sedimentary and basic -volcanic rocks of the Proterozoic.
