Metallurgical Analysis and Assaying; A Three Years' Course for Students of Schools of Mines - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur
As the title indicates, this Introductory Text-B ook has been prepared to meet the requirements of Students of Schools of Mines, more especially of Colonial Schools of Mines, the subject-matter being selected to cover a period of three years laboratory work. The time necessary to cover the ground, though a somewhat variable quantity, may for a student of average ability be taken as follows: PART I. Qualitative Analysis and Preparation of Gases, 9hours per (F irst vear) weer wees and 6hours per week for 22 weeks, or a total of 231 hours. PART II. Advanced Qualitative A nalysis, 3hours per week for 33 weeks. (S econd year) Quantitative A nalysis, 12 hours per week for 33 weeks, or a total of 495 hours. PART III. A ssaying, 16 hours per week for 33 weeks. (T hird year) Technical A nalysis. 8hours per week for 33 weeks, or a total of 792 hours. It has been felt by the Authors and others that in no one text-book for the metallurgical student is there laid down a systematic course such as is provided for students of chemical analysis in the works of Newth, Clowes and Coleman and others. The standard works of Beringer and of Furman are of too advanced a nature for the average student, and it is of vital importance that, before working from these text-books, the student should have a thorough training in Qualitative Analysis (I norganic), simple and complex, and in simple Quantitative A nalysis, both Gravimetric and Volumetric. Without such a training the student is not in a position to profit by these works, and can at best but expect to become a mere rule-of-thumb assayer or chemist. The aim of this work, then, is to fill the existing deficiencies and provide the student with a graded course of work, leading from Simple Qualitative A nalysi up to the Technical Quantitative Methods employed by the modern Metallurgical Chemist, and treated of in the works mentioned

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
