Copper in Quebec Gouvernement Du Quebec Department of Natural Resources ES 004(A) COPPER IN QUEBEC GOUVERNEMENT DU QUEBEC DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES Honorable Paul-E. Allard, Minister MINES BRANCH SPECIAL PAPER 4 COPPER IN QUEBEC Compiled by G.W. WADDINGTON MINERAL DEPOSITS SERVICE QUEBEC 1969 DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES Honorable Paul-E. Allard, Minister MINES BRANCH SPECIAL PAPER 4 COPPER IN QUEBEC Compiled by G.W. WADDINGTON MINERAL DEPOSITS SERVICE QUÉBEC 1969 FORENARD This compilation constitutes an inventory of copper occurrences in the Province of Quebec and, as such, belongs to the series of published monographs on metallic substances . Inventories of specific substances having given place_ in recent years to annotated bibliographies2 listing all the metallic mineralizations occurring over large tracts of the Province, the monograph on copper occurrences serves to reestablish the balance between the two types of compilations, each of which in its own style aims at a complete inventory of the metallic mineralizations of the Province. It should be noted that this monograph is based on information available in 1964 and was prepared independent of the annotated bibliographies. The first remark means that, to bring and to keep the compilation up to date, one should consult the various compilation works and geological reports published by the Department since 1964, as well as reports of the Federal Government covering the geological work done in the Province of Quebec. The second remark implies that the monograph does not necessarily contain all the copper occurrences listed in the bibliographies and vice versa; it also implies that, for a thorough inventory of the Appalachians and Northwestern Quebec, the two types of compilations must be consulted as they are complementary to each other. An exhaustive compilation of this type is often character- ized by certain shortcomings inherent to the uninterpreted and unweighted nature of the data. Despite this and the small errors it is susceptible to contain, it is hoped that this volume will prove useful to the Mining Industry. 1- Lead and Zinc (P.R.371, 1958), Iron (P.R.409, 1960), and Nickel (P.R.461, 1961). 2- Annotated bibliographies of the metallic mineralization in the Quebec Appalachians (report S-72 and maps B-790, B-791 and B-792) and in the regions of Noranda, Val-d'Or, Matagami, and Chibougamau (report ES-2 and map No. 1600). The former report was published in 1963; the latter in 1967. Paul-E. Grenier, Director Geological Services. July 1967. EDITOR'S NOTES This compilation takes into consideration the bibliography available in 1964. The names of some copper minerals as found in earlier publications and which are obsolete now have been changed in order to render the descriptions easier to undestand. The following are the changes: Azurite instead of Blue carbonate Bornite Variegated sulphuret Chalcopyrite Copper pyrites, yellow sulphuret Chalcocite Copper glance, vitreous sulphurst Cuprite Red oxide Malachite u Green carbonate Tenorite Black oxide All occurrences are grouped under the townships or seigneuries in which they are found.. The central point of these townships or seigneuries is given in terms of longitude and latitude between parentheses. The following points are worthy. of note: 1)SUB-TITLES - e.g. VI-30 (Noranda Mines Ltd.) The sub-title identifies each description within the broader township grouping. It indicates the location of the mine shaft or the principal mineral occurrence, but does not necessarily comprise the entire area over which the mineralization extends. Ranges are shown in Roman numerals and lots in Arabic numerals: thus, VI-30 means Range VI, lot 30. Names of companies are given in many sub-titles to assist in identifying the locus of the mineralization. These companies may, at one time, have had the rights to the mineralization or performed exploration work on it, but are not necessarily the present owners of the mining titles. 2)REFERENCES 1) The references to publications give, in abbreviated form, the name of the government organization or society responsible fôr the publication, the title or number of the publication, the year of publi- cation, and the number of the pages related to the description. 2) Government publications are listed in chronological order. - IV - 3) The few publications that exist in French only are identified by an asterisk (m). The abbreviations to be found in this report and their meaning are the following: Government of the Province of Quebec Q.D.C.L.- Quebec Department of Crown Lands The first "Mining Engineer of the Quebec Government" was J. Obalski. He published his first report as part of the "Report of the Commissioner of Crown Lands". In 1891, a Bureau of Mines was organized as a definite branch of the Department of Crown Lands. References facing the abbrevi- ation Q.D.C.L. are: Min. and Min. (1890) - Mines and Minerals of the Province of Quebec. Ann. Rep. 18 — - Reports .of the Commissioner of Crown Lands for year ending in June, 18 -. This is for years previous to 1898. Q.D.C.M.- Quebec Department of Colonization and Mines. In 1897, the Bureau of Mines was transferred to the newly created "Department of Colonization and Mines" and the chief of the Bureau was appointed "Superintendent of Mines". Q.B.M. - Quebec Bureau of Mines In 1898, the Bureau of Mines inaugurated the series of reports entitled "Mining Operations" and began to publish reports of a monographic nature and reports on the geology and mineral resources. In 1929, a Division of Geology was added to the Bureau. Reports of this Division constituted parts B, C, D, etc. of the "Annual Report of the Quebec Bureau of Mines". The title of part A was "Mining Operations and Statistics". To facilitate identification of part A and mark its con- tinuity with the annual reports of the period 1898-1928, references to this part are abbreviated "Op. Min. 19 -". In 1935, the Bureau inaugurated the series of "Preliminary Reports". - V - In 1937, the Division of Geology started to issue a separate series of volumes, consecutively numbered, designated Geologi- cal Reports, instead of calling them parts of the Annual Report of the Bureau of Mines. The Bureau itself started to publish its annual report as a separate volume entitled "Mining Industry". Abbreviations for certain reports facing Q.B.M. are: Lake St.John (1905) - Mineral Resources of the Lake St. John area. Fabre (1911) - Geology of the township of Fabre, by Robert Harvie. Chiboug. (1911) - Geology and Mineral Resources of the Chibougamau region, by the Chibougamau Commission. Ungava (1913) - Report on Ungava, recently annexed .to the Province of Quebec under the name of "New Quebec". Ungava (1915) - Report on the district of Ungava recently added to the Province of Quebec under the name of the territory of New Quebec. Reprint. Ungava (1929) - Extracts from Reports on the district of Ungava or New Quebec. Third edition. Revised. Fer Qué. (1915) - Les minerais de fer dans la province de Québec, par E. Dubieux. Published in French only. Bancroft (1915) _ Report on the Copper Déposits of the Eastern Townships of the Province of Quebec, by J. Austin Bancroft. Q.D.M. - Quebec Department of Mines Q.D.N.R.- Quebec Department of Natural Resources - VI - Government_of Canada G.S.C. - Geological Survey of Canada Between 1843 and 1884, the Survey's annual reports consisted of "Reports of Progress". Between 1885 and 1904, they were titled "Annual Reports"; from 1905 to 1933, year of last publication, they were named "Summary Reports". Since 1904, publications of the Survey have comprised, mainly: Memoirs, Museum Bulletins, the Economic Geology Series, Bulletins and Papers. Recent administrative reports on the work of the Geological Survey are found in the Annual Reports of the Department of Mines and Resources, or since 1949, in those of the Department of Mines and Technical Surveys (Department of Energy, Mines and Resources since 1966).

MINISTER A.-O. DUFRESNE. DEPUTY MINISTER GEOLOGICAL SURVEYS BRANCH I. W. JONES, CHIEF PRELIMINARY REPORT ON VIENNE AREA ABITIBI TERRITORY AND ABITIBI-EAST ELECTORAL DISTRICT BY L. B. GILLETT QUEBEC 1957 P. R. NO. 337 M-D-4294 PRELIMINARY REPORT ON VIENNE AREA by L. B. Gillett INTRODUCTION The Vienne area comprises about 245 square miles, bounded by lati- tudes 50000' and 50°15' and longitudes 74°30' and 74049.4'. It includes most of Vienne township and parts of Rageot, Chérisy and La Rochette townships in Abitibi Territory, and parts of Barlow, and Cuvier townships in Abitibi-East electoral district. The southeastern corner of the map-area is 7 miles north- west of Chibougamau. The most practical means of access is by air from Caché lake, a hydroplane base on the Chibougamau - St. Félicien highway, 6 miles from Chi- bougamau, to any one of several lakes or to parts of Brock river. The Vienne area may also be reached by canoe along Chibougamau river, from Gwillim lake to Chevrillon lake, or along Opémisca river from Lake Opémisca. Travel within the area is facilitated by such water routes as Lac du Sauvage, Crinkle creek, Brock and Opémisca rivers, and by cut lines. The area is essentially level except in the northern part, north of Brock river, where low hills prevail. The average elevation is about 1,250 feet above the sea.

Brigham. • Da`a:......... ... S° r ~•~~~.. Situation - The area is about 125 :Niles north of nort,.,. east of • Senneterre on the C: h. R., trie boundaries being described as follows: Starting from the point where the 4' deg. 30 min. of north latitude intersects the 76 deg. west meridian for a distance of eight miles in a direction 562k deg.W; thence for a distance of 50 miles in a direction S62-z deg.W; thence for a distance of 25 miles in a direction 1,622 deg.E; thence for a distance of 50 miles in a direction S272 deg.E; thence for a distance of 17 miles in a direction 5622 deg.W. to the starting point. Accessibility - Three water routes give access to Opawika Lake. 1. Take the Bell River from Senneterre to the Mattagami Lake and from there the Waswanipi and Chibougamau rivers. There are 15 portages and many rapids which can be run or poled. This route is 250 miles long. 2. Leaving the Bell River at the Wedding River, go to the head of the Wedding River into Waswanipi Lake and up the small river which empties into. Waswanipi Lake in the south east corner. This route leads through two small lakes not shown on the Iottaway sheet into Opawika Lake. This route is about 170 miles long and except for rapid water in the Wedding River is probably the best route.
