Excerpt from A Textbook on Metallurgy of Gold, Silver, Copper, Lead, and Zinc Ordinarily, the greater part of the heat given to a body is spent in raising its temperature, and but little is used in expanding the body. That is, the quantity 5 is nearly equal to the quantity Q, while the quantities I and IV are nearly nothing.

Originally published in 1899, this classic treatise on lead and silver metallurgy remains a valuable resource for mining engineers, metallurgists, and chemists. Collins provides a detailed analysis of the properties and behavior of lead and silver ores, and describes the processes and technologies used in extracting and refining these metals. With numerous illustrations and tables, the book is a must-have for anyone interested in the history and science of mining.

Excerpt from The Mining and Metallurgy of Gold and Silver His object has rather been to render this volume practically useful as a record of well-authenticated facts, and of the results of actual experience, than to advance new theories, or to accumulate additional evidence in support of old ones. He has, therefore, contented himself with merely stating the results both of his own observations, and those of others; or at most with suggesting the nature of the forces producing the effects described. He believes that our knowledge of chemical geology is not, as yet, sufficiently advanced to warrant an attempt to form a general theory of the formation of mineral veins. Recent observations and experience appear, however, to lead to three important conclusions. First, that the most productive gold bearing rocks are by no means exclusively confined to the Silurian period; secondly, that aqueous agencies have been, and still are, actively at work in the formation of mineral deposits; and, thirdly.

Excerpt from A Textbook on Metallurgy of Gold, Silver, Copper, Lead, and Zinc: Surface Arrangements at Reduction Works, Ore Dressing and Milling, Sampling Ores, Roasting and Calcining Ores, the Cyanide Process When the mercury becomes sickened it refuses to act upon the gold, and hence the gold is not recovered by this process. If, therefore, it is possible to keep the mercury bright and active, as may be done by adding chemicals, a larger percentage of precious metals can be recovered.

Most studies of ancient technology have hitherto been based on the civilisations of the Mediterranean and Middle East, especially those of Egypt, Greece and Rome. In this volume the extraordinarily well preserved remains at three major mining and metal production sites in the Aravalli Hills of Rajasthan (Agucha, Dariba and Zawar) were revealed. At these sites, by survey and archaeological excavation, the authors, studied the long-term development of mining and smelting activity over 3000 years. At Dariba and Agucha silver was mined by the Mauryan Empire on a colossal scale over 2,000 years ago. At Zawar the Mauryan mines seem to have produced mainly zinc oxide, but in the Medieval period zinc metal was produced by advanced processes of high temperature distillation, almost certainly the earliest commercial zinc production in the world. Here the laboratory processes described in the early Indian scientific works were developed into major industrial processes, the birth of chemical industry at least 500 years before similar developments began in Europe. The authors also analyse the decline and rebirth of extractive metallurgy in India.
It has long been assumed that new product innovations are typically developed by product manufacturers, an assumption that has inevitably had a major impact on innovation-related research and activities ranging from how firms organize their research and development to how governments measure innovation. In this synthesis of his seminal research, von Hippel challenges that basic assumption and demonstrates that innovation occurs in different places in different industries. Presenting a series of studies showing that end-users, material suppliers, and others are the typical sources of innovation in some fields, von Hippel explores why this variation in the "functional" sources of innovation occurs and how it might be predicted. He also proposes and tests some implications of replacing a manufacturer-as-innovator assumption with a view of the innovation process as predictably distributed across users, manufacturers, and suppliers. Innovation, he argues, will take place where there is greatest economic benefit to the innovator.
