Extractions: RECHERCHES ARCHÉOLOGIQUES SUR LES VOYAGES DE MARTIN FROBISHER (1576-1578) Dirigé par Réginald Auger Entre 1576 et 1578, l'explorateur anglais Martin Frobisher dirigea trois expéditions dans l'Arctique de l'est; le but de sa première expédition était de découvrir le passage du Nord-Ouest qui devait le conduire en Chine. Une carte géographique publiée à la même époque plaçait ce passage dans une zone tempérée au sud du cercle polaire. Comme c'était la coutume à l'époque, Frobisher rapporta des minerais lors de son premier voyage afin de prouver que l'expédition s'était bien aventurée dans des terres inconnues. Intrigué par la couleur que prenaient ces minerais après avoir été soumis à l'action du feu, Michael Lok, directeur de la compagnie de Muscovie, décida d'en apporter quelques échantillons à des alchimistes pour qu'ils vérifient leur teneur en métaux précieux, tels l'or et l'argent. Deux alchimistes conclurent que les minerais ne contenaient aucun métal précieux alors qu'un troisième considéra qu'ils renfermaient suffisamment d'or et d'argent pour qu'il vaille la peine d'entreprendre une autre expédition, dont le but serait d'en rapporter autant que possible. Bien que pour le moins équivoque, les résultats de ces tests sont la base des tout premiers projets d'extraction minière en Amérique du Nord.

Extractions: Europeans had better results when they sought the guidance of those who had come before them: First Nations' peoples who, without doubt, were this country's first prospectors and miners. For generations, aboriginals had mined native copper, shaped it into tools and artifacts for their own use, or to trade with tribes that lived away from any available copper. Samuel de Champlain, the first governor of New France, enlisted the aid of natives when he set out to develop mineral occurrences in the early 1600s. Discoveries of iron and silver were soon reported in Nova Scotia, and after these beginnings, a few small mines were operated by French and English settlers. But interest in minerals waned as this country's founders turned their attention towards the wealth being generated from furs. The Treasure is Buried For those early explorers, the search for the rocks from which these metals are produced was a constant struggle against geography and nature. Only those driven by an adventurous spirit, by need or by greed, had the fortitude to withstand the harsh climate, the mosquitoes and lonely vastness of a strange, wild land.

Washington D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press, 2001. One of the foremost natural historians of his time, Lucien M. Turner spent the years between 1882 and 1884 in the Ungava district in the northern Quebec-Labrador peninsula studying the Innu and Inuit. His work, Ethnology of the Ungava District , first published in 1894 as part of the Smithsonian's Annual Report of the Bureau of American Ethnology series, as well as the numerous collections and photographs he took while in the north, stand as invaluable snapshots of the lifeways, language, stories and material culture of the Innu and Inuit. This reissue of his northern ethnology ensures that Turner's work will continue to be a classic introduction to the people of northern Quebec and Labrador.

Extractions: Renaissance Overview As the Middle Ages began to crumble a new vision was emerging in Italy, that of the Renaissance. The Renaissance was a "Rebirth" of ancient Greek and Roman learning. It manifested itself in fine art, new learning and economic growth. A new secular attitude arose and it was unique to Italy for the following reasons: 1) Italy was centrally located between Constantinople in the East and the rest of mainland Europe in the West. Due to its location Italy became the "middle man" of the trading world. Because of its dominance in trade Italy was to reap the many benefits associated with this position. 2) Trade brought an immense amount of wealth to Italy, this brought about a rise in a wealthy middle class. This influx of wealth enabled people to then invest in areas they would not have previously. Rich merchants began to invest in art, a new secular art devoid of religious themes. Education increased with the endowments of great universities. Money was spent on new enterprises allowing for many new inventions. Banking began to increase in order to accomodate these finacial dealings. Money was leant to explorers, merchants and even Kings. The growth in investment in turn lead to greater wealth. 3) While Northern Europe was encased in a monarchical, and in some cases centrallized, form of government, Italy was not. Italy maintained a city-state system which allowed for a larger amount of freedom then those experienced by other nations. In addition most leaders within the city-state system were in fact members of the new wealthy class. Cities such as Florence, Milan and Venice each possessing a seperate identity, began to lead the way in this new growth.

Amundsen was also the first person to sail around the world through the Northeast and Northwest passages, from the Atlantic to the Pacific (in 1905). He was the first person to reach both the North and South Poles. Amundsen died in a plane crash attempting to rescue his friend, the Italian explorer Umberto Nobile who was lost in an airship.

Extractions: robisher's Arctic expeditions have long been accounted an historical dead-end. Yet there were a number of respects in which they were significant for the future of North America, Britain, and Nunavut. They mark a beginning for the English preoccupation with finding a northwest passage, which led to the discovery and exploitation of the Hudson Bay area. Even as Frobisher's mission was being diverted from exploration into mining, Francis Drake was being allowed to see if he could find the Pacific end of such a passage. The passage proved an elusive goal for centuries From the perspective of the history of exploration, the 1576 voyage During the 1576 visit of the Gabriel to Frobisher Bay, the ship's boat prepares to carry five sailors ashore.
