Excerpt from Proceedings of the Nova Scotian Institute of Natural Science, 1885, Vol. 6: Part II
During the past few months a good deal of interest has been shown in Mining circles over the reported discoveries of coal seams, of workable size, on the debert River, Colchester Co. In this conclusion the following notes of a brief visit to the ground may prove interesting to the members of the Institute, and I only regret that the attention necessarily directed to mines in operation has prevented me from giving more time to the problems presented by this practically unknown district.

Excerpt from Proceedings of the Nova Scotian Institute of Natural Science, 1885, Vol. 6: Part II
The six feet seam was opened last winter by a short Slope, and about 50 tons of coal were extracted. It is stated to have in the centre a band of shaley coal about 9 inches thick. I was unable to verify the dimensions by actual measurement, as all the openings were full of water at the time of my visit, but the outcrop of the bed under the waters of the river apparently confirmed them.
