The Bureau of Mines created this map to study Canadian geologic details as well as locations of Indian reserves. From Sturgeon River on the west to Potato Lake on the east. And from Kah-petogamak Lake on the south to Crow Lake on the north. There is much detail in identified land plots (or allotments?) around Bad Vermillion Lake and south of Little Turtle Lake. It projects the route of the Ontario and Rainy River Railway. Its geologic legend tells of soil and rock types.
