Resources Division

Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Resources Division : In 1959, the Resources Division was established to replace the Mining and Lands Division. It therefore became the heir to, and incorporated many files into its registry system from, a long line of resource, lands, and mining-oriented units: Timber, Mines, Grazing and Irrigation Branch; Mines Branch; Mining Lands and Yukon Branch; Mining Lands Branch; Lands Section; Federal Lands Registry; Mining Lands Section; Lands Division; and Mining and Lands Division. The Resources Division was responsible for oil and gas, mining, forests, and lands in the North; lands in the south remaining under federal jurisdiction after 1930; and for seed grain and fodder indebtedness. (See Appendix 4 of th RG85 General In ventory for a detailed administrative history). Its file registry numbers were prefixed by an "R", some numbers coming from the 900 block of the Northern Administration registry (see RG85-D-1-a, MIKAN 135012) and others being unique to the Resources Division registry.
