That was the first kimberlite found in Canada...
more info at...www.ivarkreuger.com/canadian_diamonds.htm...Ty Balacko walked down the embankment
to the lake, he ran across a couple of piles of green
rock that looked unusual...
RE: That was the first kimberlite found in Canada,
from an outcrop beside a gravelpit at Sturgeon Lake,
(btw. the first kimberlite found in Canada,
was reported in the Canadian Business Magazine by
Dan Zakreski...
.. the mineralogist who found the outcrop
was there with two rocks & mineral collectors and
10 years later the Monopros Ltd, De Beers, did
more exploration 1987 at Sturgeon Lake property...
Can tell you that Ty retired more than
25 years ago but still we enjoy go prospecting
and he sometime, makes field labs for companies
who beg him and are to far from est.labs, he
is a very great pro. fellow who discovered
minerals no one else found and be asked to
write articles in the Mineralogical Record)Fact for the Records: In 1978 when the first
kimberlite in Canada was found by Ty,
that was the Start of the Canada's
Diamond Exploration...www.ir.gov.sk.ca/Default.aspx?DN=3376,3715,2965,2936,Documents We have come long way since, and Canada's
Diamond Industry is still in its infancy
and the right time for investments.
