Molybdenum mine. In pyroxenite, pegmatite, and paragneiss.

The workings of the Zenith Molybdenite Corporation, Limited, are situated
on the west half of lot 28, concession IV, Bagot township. The company also
owns the west half of lot 27, concession IV. The original discovery was made by William Warren, who sold the mining rights to Sir Henry Pellatt in 1914; work was carried on between 1914 and 1916 under the direction of M. J. Paterson, and in 1917 by A. W. Taylor. (ARV53)
