MARTIN FROBISHER'S QUEST FOR GOLD A SEARCH FOR THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE QUICKLY TURNED INTO A GOLD HUNT, AND A SCANDAL TO RIVAL BRE-X By Peggy Berkowitz If they remember him at all from high school history class, many Canadians will know Martin Frobisher as an early English explorer, one of the first of many who sought a Northwest Passage to Asia through the frozen Arctic. But thanks to new historical and archeological research from opposite sides of the Atlantic, Frobisher may soon become more widely known for other audacious exploits in the Arctic. He may become famous as the man who inspired the first Bre-X-type scandal on Canadian soil, with a piece of worthless black rock brought back from his first trip to the Arctic. Through incompetence, fraud or more likely both, the rock tested falsely as gold-bearing ore, and launched the first "Canadian" gold rush - and gold bust. Or he may be admired as the leader of the biggest peacetime sea voyage to the Canadian Arctic. His third trip in 1578, with a fleet of 15 ships and more than 400 seamen, tradesmen and miners, remains the largest Arctic sea expedition ever in the Canadian Arctic, with the exception of naval operations during World War II. Finally, Martin Frobisher may become better known as the explorer who, under orders from Queen Elizabeth I, intended to establish an English colony of 100 men near Frobisher Bay four centuries ago. Although the loss of a supply ship put an end to that ill-conceived plan, he and his mining expedition left the oldest English archeological remains in North America - pre-dating England's Jamestown settlement in Virginia by a generation.

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.

Other AFK prints by Toni Onley: Edge Of Space Window Sill About the Artist Toni Onley, the flying artist, is one of the most highly respected landscape artists working in Canada today. He is a modern day explorer with an insatiable curiosity to travel to all reaches of the world in search of line, shape and colour. While he is best known for his watercolours and prints, it is his unmistakable style and succinct vision that sets him apart from other artists. Toni Onley's quest for learning and creating the perfect painting has never subsided. While living in Ontario, he was fortunate to study with Carl Schaeffer and discovered the inspirational water colours of David Milne. Two years following his move to BC in 1955, his urge to travel and learn took him to the Instituto Allende in Mexico. It was there, fuelled by frustration and the challenges of abstraction, that he discovered amazing success with collages created with his torn paintings. In 1964 he received a Senior Canada Council Fellowship and returned to England to study etching. While in London at the time, he rediscovered his roots by frequenting art museums showing the nineteenth century watercolour paintings of J.M.W. Turner, Cotman and Cox.

French Presence in Newfoundland European exploration in the region would have to justify itself not only in terms of a route to Cathay, but also in terms of what of value might be found on the New World itself. Later Exploration John Cabot may have discovered an ocean route from Europe to North America, but the information he returned with did little to clarify the geography of eastern Canada. Whether this was the northeastern tip of Asia or one of the islands that geographers believed to lie out in the Ocean Sea nobody yet knew. Over the next quarter century, however, a succession of voyages undertaken by several Portuguese explorers as well as the discoveries of Giovanni Verrazano, sailing for the king of France, proved beyond doubt that something resembling a full continent lay astride the route to the east. Section of Gerolamo da Verrazzano's map of the world, 1529. Dreams of Empire: Canada before 1700 (44 kb) Enthusiasts continued to believe that there might be a narrow channel through this landmass or at least a northern, navigable waterway around it. Further European exploration in the region, however, would henceforth have to justify itself not only in terms of a route to Cathay, but also in terms of what of value might be found in the New World itself.

Unknown Shore: The Lost History of England's Arctic Colony By Robert Ruby. Reviewed by Russell A. Potter In December of 1858, a Cincinnati engraver and sometime newspaper publisher by the name of Charles Francis Hall took a brief stroll from his shop on West Fourth Street. A few doors down, at Smith and Nixon's Hall, the printed bills in the window advertised the appearance of a "moving panorama" of the Arctic Regions. Judging from a notice Hall published in his Cincinnati Occasional , the narrator of the panorama had a hard time being heard over the crowds of schoolchildren in attendance; while praising the panorama, Hall decried the noise: "For the credit of children of Cincinnati, all shouts and noise, during their attendance, should cease." Yet despite the disruptions, Hall was apparently very deeply impressed as the "perilous adventures, wonderful discoveries, and singular phenomena witnessed by Dr. Kane and his brave companions" in the "frozen regions" scrolled before his view. Within six months,the hitherto quite settled Mr. Hall began making preparations to sell his business and equip an expedition of his own to the Arctic, the first of three such voyages which would encompass more than a decade, establishing Hall as the leading American polar explorer of his day.

Seafaring English ships and seamen The Mary Rose: it was built 1509-11 and sunk in 1545. The Golden Hind this was the ship in which Sir Francis Drake circumnavigated the globe in 1577-1580. (The expedition of the Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan first sailed around the world in 1519-22, though Magellan himself was killed on the way; Drake was the first Englishman to sail round the world.) Sir Martin Frobisher (c.1535 -1594) In 1576 he sailed in search of a "Northwest Passage" to Asia, and reached Baffin Bay in Canada. He helped defeat the Spanish Armada and died from wounds received fighting the Spanish. Sir Francis Drake (1540-96) Drake made his fortune less by his voyages of exploration than by privateering - attacking and stealing from Spanish settlements in the New World and plundering the treasure ships that brought gold and silver back from there. A famous (though perhaps apocryphal) anecdote tells of how Sir Francis Drake was playing lawn bowls when he was told of the approach of the Armada. He continued to play saying "We can finish the game and still beat the Spaniards." The Royal Charles I t was built in 1655 (then named the Naseby) and later saw service (and ignominious defeat) in the Battle of Medway (June 1667) where it was captured by the Dutch.
