The waters from many ot the wells sunk for oil throughout the 

 district, and further north, in the Enniskillen oil region, show very 

 similar characters, and are in many instances highly sulphurous. 



Brampton, Peel Co. {a) — -A water having in solution a small pro- 

 portion of the alkaline chlorides and sulphates, is reported from this 

 place, though the amount of solid mineral contents, 0-38 parts in 1000 

 of water, hardly places it in the category of mineral waters. 



Brant, Brant Co. (a) — On lot 53, township of Brant, is found a 

 copious spring, known as the " Blue Spring," from the intense blue 

 colour of the water in the reservoir, which lies on a mound of calc tufa. 

 The water both tastes and smells sulphurous, though no gas is evolved.
