Wiib the Uniiecl States lceading in ber possession of a Iifle more than one hait of the world's coal deposits Canada ranks easily second with nearly one-fiftb of the, globe's total supply of this minerai. Nearly ninlety per cent of Canadas'coai sup- ply lies witbin the confines of fthc province of Alberta, or about one- seventh of the resources of the world. In tonnage the enorinious deposits of the prairie province total 1,182,571 million ions, which may be sub-di- vided into 1,182 million tons of an- thracite, 217,593mlio tons o! itu- minous, and 963 796 mllo tons of ligiRite. This may he cmae with the werld's total reserve o! 7,397,553 meirie tons, or the United States of 4.231,352 illion tons. Albertapssse by far the most extensIve, coal area of Canjada.

The Kootenay formation is exposed :n and near the Rocky Mountains and l3 estimated as 1.7 per cent semi-an- thracite, and 98.3 per cent bigh car- bon bituminous or bituminous. The production of the anthracite field, of whicb Bauif is the contre, for the year 1917, was 108.225 toms whicb represents 2.3 per cent of the provinee's total output.
