The LongView (Home, photographed from 22,000 miles away) Most of us at Texas Gulf have children. Many, including the president, have young children. These are a multitude of reasons why the long view of the world is a way of life at Texas Gulf Sulphur Company. Even without the children, a company which has been successful in developing natural resources over several generations would emphasize long-range planning, thinking in terms not just of five or ten years ahead, but 20, 50 and 100 years. A major mine with its processing and related facilities must be viable for at least two decades rf it is to be rewarding to stockholders, employees and the community. Executives of natural resources companies learn to contemplate the prospects for developing natural resources for their children and children’s children; the materials for continued growth in the devel- oped regions of the earth; the requirements for eradicating poverty, disease and starvation in less privileged parts of the globe and the wherewithal for setting them on the way to fuller development. They must think of how these things may be done without disturbing man’s environ- ment in unacceptable ways. The long view is a way of life for us. Texas Gulf Sulphur Company.

Besides the rhombopyre dykes mentioned above, there are several dykes cutting the complex. At stop 3 two vertical dykes cut the syenite. These and the one at stop 7 were diabasic and might be related to the Keeweenawan extrusives in Central Canada. Also at stop 8 there were several series of high angle dykes of olivine-basalt in various host rocks. These and other structures, such as the sill of basalt at stop 6 might be the equivalent of Animekie extrusives, but further study is necessary to substantiate this. One way to do this is by radiometric dating and the initial 87Sn 86Sn ratio which should be the same for all co-magmatic rocks. These and other studies might reveal the relationship of these structures to the other regional phenomena, such as the dykes which might be feeders to the regional Keeweenawan extrusives. The rocks in the complex itself are very interesting and spectacular in their variety, texture, rare minerals and elements, and in the sequence of crystallization. Economically the potential of nephelene syenite and laurvakite for construction material, and the other rare elements might be worth investigating. Further study may contribute to the understanding of pre-Cambrian strati- graphy in the Canadian Shield or even in the crust. Subsequent Field Trips 1 . Sibley Penninsuia field trip 2.
