Metallurgy of the Non-Ferrous Metals

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Much that is not essential and processes which are obsolete have been omitted, while those which are falling into disuse are only briefly described. In the chapters dealing with gold, silver, copper, and lead special care has been taken to keep pace with the progress which has been made in the metallurgy of these metals, and it is believed that no important modern successful process has been omitted.
