R. P. D. Graham's geology paper, reprinted from the February-March 1917 issue of Economic Geology, set out to explain how the massive serpentine and chrysotile asbestos of the Black Lake-Thetford area of Quebec formed and how the two relate. Building on J. A. Dresser's 1913 survey of the serpentine belt, it covers the area's rocks, the alteration of olivine to serpentine, and features of the chrysotile veins such as cross-fiber, slip-fiber and bent fiber.
