Excerpt from Ore Dressing, Vol. 1 of 2
In the use and design of machinery in all lines, America has, in the last few years, taken a leading place among the nations; that used in ore dressing is no exception to this rule. The existing authorities on this subject treat chiefly of European practice, and since the time of their publication, new researches have been made, revising and throwing light upon the laws governing separation. On all these accounts, therefore, the present seems an opportune time for the appearance of a work on ore dressing.
The aim of the author has been to present to the reader the modern American practice, referring for comparison to the European; and to so expound the princi ples of the art, as at present understood, as to make advances easy in the future. In making the book he has had in mind the student, the teacher, the expert, the mill man and the manufacturer.
