I had for months an engineer working in this territory – George E. Bent… He opened up the great Le roi mines in British Columbia and was for years associated with the Rothschilds of London in the development of their properties in Africa and in India. Mr. Bent’s opinion as expressed to me is that this copper country in Ontario is going to be a second Butte." Accompanying the typed letter signed is a retained typed copy of a letter by Bent to Peard offering upbeat ore analysis and development recommendations for four mining claims owned by the Canadian Gold and Copper Estates. Bent’s letter mentions a “statement” on these claims by Robert W. Armstrong and R.A. Teasdale. A copy of this mining statement is included here. It analyzes in detail the gold and copper ore potentials of seven mines owned by the Canadian Gold and Copper Estates. Accompanying the letters and statement is a blueprint map showing the location of the claims owned by the Canadian Gold and Copper Estates near Lake Huron. Rounding out the group is a Memorandum proposing the incorporation of the Canadian Gold and Copper Estates.
