Abstract
THIS volume forms the second of a series of works dealing with the various phases of mining which is being produced by Messrs. Benn, Ltd., under the general editorship of Prof. Henry Louis. To quote the editor's introduction, “There is probably no industry that depends upon so great a variety of other arts and that involves so many branches of science as does mining, nor one that includes such a complexity of operations.” The most important of all the phases is the winning and working, or extraction of the deposit.
