along the Bay of Fundy shore of Digby Neck, but are especially 
numerous and finely colored in the hills overlooking the Petite 
Passage, about Tiverton. Veins of iron ore occur three miles 
from Digby on the road to Broad Cove, at Johnston’s mine, in 
Waterford, at Mink Cove, and elsewhere, while at Nichol’s mine, 
in Rossway, are to be seen particularly interesting combinations 
or associations of all the minerals named above. A peculiar 
brownish white unctuous or soapy clay is another abundant and

Veins of pure zeolites occur in various parts of Digby Neck,
