Exploration
in Canada and
Outlook for the Future
By Donald A. Cranstone
This report traces the emergence of Canada's mineral industry and provides concise information on production, reserves, exploration results and an outlook. The report is being published by Natural Resources Canada and also by the German government's Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe (Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources) for distribution in Germany in that organization's Rohstoffwirtschaftliche Länderreihe series, a series of reports concerning various countries that present summaries of topics such as their geology, mineral industries and production, mineral resources, mineral deposits and mineral production economics.
A brief summary chapter entitled "Canada's Petroleum Industry," included for the benefit of German readers, will also be of interest to Canadians.
