The Shelf2Life Mines and Mining Collection is a unique set of
materials focusing on the operation of mines, the mining industry
and mineralogy in the 19th and 20th centuries. From first-hand
accounts of life in the mines to descriptions of mine construction,
excavation methods and machinery, to mine taxation and
determinative mineralogy, this collection reveals the science and
culture of the thriving mining industry pre-1923. Illuminating the
pages of these intriguing volumes are rock and mineral photographs
and mineral classification tables including chemical tests and
scientific experiments written during a period of significant
expansion in the discipline of mineralogy. The Mines and Mining
Collection unearths a period of early historical mining practices
and related scientific discoveries of value to enthusiasts,
students and mineralogists alike.
