foly^ Lotbiniere Co. (a) — A sulphurous water is found in this 

 township on the Magnetat Brook about five miles from Methot's mills. 

 The water is feebly saline and contains a portion of boracic acid, 

 besides sulphuretted hydrogen equal to 75 cubic inches per litre. A 

 specimen collected in July 1853, afforded the following analysis : — 



Chloride sodium '3818 Carbonate magnesia '0257 



Chloride potassium "0067 Alumina undet 



Sulphate soda '0215 Silica ; '0245 



Carbonate soda '2301 



" lime '0620 In 1,000 parts of water "7523 



Lanoraie, Betthier Co. {a) — A saline spring occurs at a point about 

 midway between the village of Lanoraie and Industry. The water 

 evolves large quantities of carburetted hydrogen and contains some- 

 what large proportions of baryta and strontia as shown in the following 

 analysis of a specimen collected in March 1851.

L'Assofnpfi'on, B Assomption Co. (a) — A saline water vvhich some 

 years ago was used quite extensively and was somewhat widely known 

 is found in the range of Point du Jour, near the village of L'Assomp- 

 tion. The spring, known as the " Aurora spring " rises from Cambro 

 Silurian rocks and an analysis of its waters showed them to contain 7 "36 

 parts of solid matterin 1,000 of water as well as considerable quantities 

 of carburetted hydrogen. 



Longueuil, Soulanges Co. — In the report of the Geological Survey 

 Vol. I. 1885 page 12 M is given the analysis of a water from a spring 

 in this seigniory and which rises from rocks of the Chazy formation. 

 The spring has an estimated flow of about 450 gallons per minute and 

 the water was odourless and practically tasteless. The analysis gave the 

 following result : —
