Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mining Schools in the United States Our own country presents to-day an example of the dependence of industry upon knowledge which is quite as remarkable as that given above. Commissioner Ross Browne, in his report on our Western mines, says that experienced investors in mining property will not pay for a mine more than two and a half times its yearly profit. That is to say, they do not consider it a safe investment unless it returns forty per cent. Upon its cost.* The reason of this is plain. With no means of educating miners to their work, the conduct of mines in this country is a lamentable story of mismanagement, energy wrongly directed, and consequent great losses. The thousand millions of gold dollars that have been won from the ground in California are but an inadequate representation of the real wealth that existed there.1' Observers have estimated the losses which were at first caused by ignorant and hasty methods of working at two thirds of the gold really at hand, and none have put them at less than one half. A better state of affairs has gradually grown up, but the losses to this day are very much larger than they should be. In California, however.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Mining: Based on the Course of Lectures on Mining, Delivered at the School of Mines of the State of Colorado Based originally upon lectures delivered at the Colorado State School of Mines, between 1880 and 1888, the various editions received only such additions and changes as were necessary in its use as a text-book in the mining schools of this and other countries. The Author of the Manual of Mining presents in this edition a complete revision of the work, which now assumes the form of a collaboration with the authors mentioned below. Mr. E. B. Wilson, who needs no introduction to the mining public, brings to the original work a wide range of experience and ability, an accuracy of detail and a discrimination in description, contributing highly to the value of the revision. He has devoted himself particularly to Chapter III of Part I and Chapters V, VI, VII, and VIII, of Part II. Originally planned for Metal-mining, the first issue of the book gave small place to Coal and its extraction. This new edition has of necessity been enlarged to include Coal-mining in all its phases, with full descriptions and many illustrations of modern methods and machinery. The later devices in power generation and distribution, as the steam-turbines, oil, and compressed-air engines, with such appliances as have proven themselves meritorious in economy and safety, are elaborately treated.

This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the School of Mines and of Science Applied to the Arts, Vol. 1: Inaugural and Introductory Lectures to the Courses for the Session 1851-2 We are this day assembled to inaugurate a system of instruction new to our country; one which does not interfere with existing institutions, - on the contrary, it may be considered as assisting several, inasmuch as while it provides for a want which they do not supply, it refers to knowledge which they teach. That this establishment should be the means of affording instruction in a particular direction, - an instruction tending more especially to illustrate the application of Geology, and of its associated sciences, to the useful purposes of life, was early decided. In 1839, four years after the first collections were made for the Museum of Practical Geology, the sanction of the Treasury was given to lectures having that application for their object. The system of instruction we commence this day is, therefore, not founded on any new view, twelve years having elapsed since lectures of a similar general character were authorized. That these lectures have not been given has arisen from the want of a proper theatre in which to deliver them, and from the absence of other appliances not, until now, at our command. Referring thus to the early condition of this establishment, a few words on its origin may, perhaps, not be altogether out of place.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mining Camps: A Study in American Frontier Government Few undertakings of my busy life have brought me more pleasure than the group of studies linked together in this volume. They were begun and carried to completion while I was a student at this university; and if they possess any value, it is chiefly because of the spirit of original investigation fostered here in every department of knowledge. Since I am about to send this volume to the press, I desire, with sincere respect and affection, to place on record my sense of personal obligations to President D. C. Gilman, Professor Gildersleeve, Professor Paul Haupt, Dr. H. B. Adams, and Dr. Richard Ely, of Johns Hopkins; to President W. T. Reid and Professor Cook of the University of California; and to Dr. Josiah Royce of Harvard, - all of whom have helped me by the loan of pamphlets, by advice, and by their cordial interest in the undertaking.

Download or read book Considerations in Reference to the Establishment of a National School of Mines as a Means of Increasing the Product of Gold and Silver Bullion Classic Reprint written by Library Of Congress and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Considerations in Reference to the Establishment of a National School of Mines as a Means of Increasing the Product of Gold and Silver Bullion At no period in our history has there existed a greater necessity for an increase in the production of bullion than at present. The ablest intellects oi the country have been for some time past directed to the subject of our financial condition. Already numerous schemes have been presented to Congress for the maintenance of our credit at hom'e and abroad, and various projects having in view a reduction of the burden of taxation will doubtless be discussed during the present session. Considering the great importance of the mining interest in this connection, it seems singular that the annual decrease in our product of bullion for the last few years has attracted so little attention. According to a statement in the President's message, the production of precious metals in the United States from 1849 to 1857, inclusive, amount to from 1858 to 1860, inclu sive, to 0137, and from 1861 to 1867, inclusive, to making the grand aggregate of products since 1849, This estimate certainly does not exceed the amount actually produced. But the returns of the principal mining States and Territories will show that for several years past there has been a gradual decline.
