Subventions

NEW
ESTISLVTES
OF
RESERVES
Tiie
royal
commission
on
coal
sharply
reduced
estimates
of
Canada's
coal
reserves
today
but
soothed
the
dismayed
with
the
announcement
mat
there
should
be
'enough'
for
everybody
for
the
next
27
centuries.
The
commission's
report,
tabled
In
Parliament,
said
Canada
possesses
about
99,000,000,-000
tons
of
mineable
coal
or
about
49,000,003,000
tons
which
are
recoverable.
An
estimate
compiled
by
Dr.
B.
R.
MacKay
of
the
federal
Mines
Department
indicated
that
"on
the
basis
of
the
cur-
"nt
level

of

Canada,

His
total
worked
out
at
less
than,
10
nt
of
the
only
previous
nation-wide
estimate,
one
of
1,560,535,000,000
tons
made
in
1913,
but
there
were
several
reasons
for
the
difference.
Actual
operations
and
surveys
had
refuted
some
of
the
1913
assumptions.
The
1913
estimate,
again,
was
not
confined
to
mineable
coal
and
might
now
be
cgnsldered
"a
reasonable
approximation
of
coal
occurring
as
a
geological
phenomenon
in
Canada."
It
could
not
be
considered
an
accurate
estimate
from
the
standpoint
of
practical
mining.
Dr.
MacKay
had
worked
v
on
estimates
prepared
by
provincial
authorities
and
coal
operators'
associations
as
well
as
principal
operators.
His
figures
were
based
on

coat
or
coal
considered
to
exist
in

thicknesses
within
a
required
distance
of
the
surface;
on
"recoverable"
