This comprehensive report provides an in-depth examination of the Gowganda Mining Division, located in the District of Nipissing, Ontario, during a period of burgeoning mining activity. The book meticulously documents the region's geological formations, mineral resources, and mining prospects, with a particular focus on the discovery and development of silver and cobalt deposits that spurred a mining rush in the area.

It also discusses the challenges faced by prospectors and mining companies, such as transportation, infrastructure, and environmental conditions. The report serves as both a scientific document and a historical record, reflecting the optimism and ambition of Ontario's mining frontier.
