Mining built #NovaScotia!
The old #BankofMontreal building in Sydney was built 1900-01 of sandstone from Wallace, the area that provided stone for so many historic buildings like our legislature and parts of Ottawa's parliament buildings.
#nspoli #cbpoli @HomeMattersCB @OldSydney ImageImage
The bank was built because of the economic boom that occurred in #Sydney in that era. Large steel plants located in Sydney, fed by nearby #coal mines, made Sydney a hub of commercial and industrial activity.
#nspoli #cbpoli @HomeMattersCB @OldSydney Image
The building was designed by renowned architect Sir Andrew Taylor of Taylor and Gordon. Its Palladian windows, copper dome, columns, and pediments combine to make a striking building. It’s one of the best examples of commercial Neo-classic architecture in NS.

Nova Scotia #salt saved lives this winter – all our road salt comes from the #Pugwash salt mine. With snowstorms now over (we hope!), here’s a history of salt mining in #NovaScotia!
#nspoli #cbpoli #capebreton
@MLAElizabethNS @ZannLenore ImageImage
327-342 million years ago, global sea levels rose and fell many times. This repeatedly flooded #NovaScotia with what we call the Windsor Sea. #NS was near the equator at the time so the sea also evaporated repeatedly in the heat.
#nspoli #cbpoli #capebreton Image
The evaporation of sea water left deposits of successive layers of salt. This process was repeated for millions of years until the original salt beds were far below earth’s surface. Subterranean pressures and heat compressed the salt into #NovaScotia’s huge rock #salt deposits. Image

We love getting questions about mining, minerals and geology! We were asked where the stone was quarried for the old #Bridgewater post office on King St. Here’s our answer:
#nspoli #cbpoli #NovaScotia #capebreton #NS #CB @BernJordanMP @MarkFurey1 @TownBridgewater @DesBrisayMuseum ImageImage
The old #Bridgewater post office was designed by David Ewart and built in 1909 by builders Faulkner and MacDonald. It was built in the federal style, with the ground level windows featuring rounded tops and stone arches.
#nspoli #cbpoli #NovaScotia @BernJordanMP @MarkFurey1 Image
It also has a Dentilled Cornice, which is the small tooth like decorative block design that crowns the building. ("Dentil" comes from the Latin word for tooth.)

#Mining built #NS!
The #Amherst Red Stone #Quarry was on James Donalds' farm, east of Willow St. (1889-1914). It provided #sandstone for many Amherst heritage buildings including Bank of #NovaScotia (built 1907), Trinity-St. Stephen’s (1906) and 1st Baptist Church (1895).
#nspoli ImageImageImage
"Busy #Amherst" grew rapidly after the #IntercolonialRailway was built through town in 1876 and with the growth of industries like #coal #mining, transforming it from a village to a bustling industrial town. Many of its beautiful buildings date from that era.
#nspoli #NovaScotia ImageImage
Today, the #Amherst Red Stone #Quarry is a lovely pond in a field. Former #mines and #quarries are often hidden in plain sight!

MANS in @Guysboro!
FACTS ABOUT GOLD AND THE ENVIRONMENT
#Gold #mining is bringing 100s of millions of $ in investment to #NovaScotia and creating 100s of jobs for #NovaScotians.
Modern mining is a sophisticated science-based activity that takes proper care of the enviro.
#nspoli Image
@Guysboro #Reclamation - Before getting operating permits, #NovaScotia #mining companies must get government approval of reclamation plans and post reclamation bonds that ensure funds are available to properly take care of sites.
#nspoli #NS #minerals #geology Image
@Guysboro Water Management: Mine operators are required to treat, strictly monitor and test water, and report to @nsgov. Water is usually recycled on-site. Water released back into a river or lake is usually cleaner after it has been used in a mine or quarry than it was beforehand.

Historical tailings have nothing to do with modern #gold mining. #Mining today is a science-based industry that takes proper care of the environment.
Standards weren't good enough 100 years ago for mining or anything else. But that's not how we operate now.

#NS Mine operators treat, strictly monitor and test water, and report back to @nsgov. Water is recycled on-site to reduce the amount needed. Water released back into a river or lake is usually cleaner after it has been used in a mine or #quarry than it was beforehand.
