254 MINERALS FOR THE PARIS EXHIBITION.—GILPIN, 
Gold Ores. 
The collection of gold specimens procured for the exhibition 
although not as rich as could be desired, may be termed repre- 
sentative of a number of the best known districts. I will refer 
briefly to the districts represented. The department contributed 
a set of Montagu specimens, valued at $1,200.00, at present on 
exhibition at the Imperial Institute, London, also specimens from 
Renfrew, Mt. Uniacke, and Waverly. Another handsome set, 
approaching in value that first named, was secured from Messrs. 
Jack & Bell. Another sample was from the famous “ Plough 
Lead” at Isaacs Harbor. 
The following parties aiso contributed samples, some of 
which were very handsome, accompanied by samples of 
concentrates, wall rocks, photos, ete. :
