The region described under this heading is located in the Grenville Province of the Canadian Shield. The description includes about three hundred square miles surrounding the feldspar deposits. The topography of the area is greatly influenced by the structure of the bedrock. Near the sea, where the land surface is low, bays and peninsulas form an irregular shoreline. Shape and location of the bays are determined by the strike and extant of the softer sedimentary rocks which underlie the submerged valleys.
