Excerpt from The Metallurgy of Lead: Including Desilverization and Cupellation IT was intended that this volume should contain the Metallurgy Of Lead, Silver, and Gold; but it has been found impossible to treat those important subjects in a sufficiently detailed and com prehensive manner in a single volume without making it so thick and heavy as to be inconvenient. It has, therefore, been decided to restrict this volume to the Metallurgy Of Lead, including the processes of Desilverization and Cupellation. The Author does not regret the change in the plan of publication, because the delay in publishing the Metallurgy of Silver and Gold will, there is reason to hope, enable him to procure valuable and additional information from California and elsewhere on those subjects for the next volume, of which a considerable portion is already in print.

Excerpt from The Metallurgy of Lead Silver, Vol. 1 of 2 When silver is melted and cooled slowly, octahedral crystals can be obtained. When melted in the air it absorbs twenty-two times its volume of oxygen, which is, however, given off on solidification. This phenomenon called sprouting is peculiar to silver which is nearly pure, comparatively small quantities of copper or of lead destroying its property of sprouting.

Excerpt from The Metallurgy of Lead and the Desilverization of Base Bullion In.ib7o Dr. Percy published his great work, The Metallurgy of Lead, Including Desilverization and Cupellation, which has become the standard book for England and America, and is also highly esteemed by the Germans and the French, into whose lan guages it has been translated. It contains an exhaustive discus sion of smelting and desilverizing as carried on in the principal European works. During the past twenty years, however, so much that is new has been introduced in American practice that a book embodying the latest improvements seems almost a neces sity for the student. It is the aim of the present work to supply this need. Thus, while European practice is not at all excluded from the book, the main Object has been to make it a guide for Americans, and European methods have been discussed more in connection with their applicability in this country than from any other point of view. In the subject of the blast-furnace, for in stance, only such features have been brought out as seemed useful for America. Reverberatory-furnace practice, on the other hand, which has not made much progress as yet in this country, is given more in the European way, while the ore-hearth treatment follows both English and American methods, which supplement one an other. Three classes of readers have been kept in mind - the stu dent, for whose use the ground principles and many definitions are given a prominent place; the metallurgist, who needs minute de tail for his practical operations; and the investigator, who will find in the foot-notes the principal references for the subject in. Its. Various branches. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Metallurgy of Lead The first discovery of argentiferous lead ore was made in 1863 in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah; the first smelting of such ores was carried on in 1865 at Argenta, Mont; in 1867 similar ores were found at White Pine, Nev., and smelting was begun at Oreana, Nev. In 1869 the mines of Eureka, Nev discovered in 1864, were opened up, and the treatment of ores was begun in the following year. Next came Utah, where smelteries were erected in 1870, followed by Colorado, which came into prominence in 1878. Later Idaho, New Mexico, and Arizona were added to the list. Colorado for many years was the largest producer of lead ores, but it has been outranked by Idaho and Utah since the exhaustion of the wonderful mines of Leadville after 1890; it furnishes at present only 6 - 7 per cent. Of the country's product, and this high figure is largely due to the central smelting works of Denver and Pueblo which treat more lead ore mined outside of the state than produced in it. The manner in which prehistoric people extracted lead from ore is unknown. If we recall that oxide and sulphide ores readily give up lead when heated with charcoal, we can imagine that the accidental discovery of this fact may have led to the most primitive furnace, a small pit dug into the ground and enclosed by stones to form a small shaft. If at first such furnaces were worked by natural draft, blast (reeds, bellows) must have been applied to produce the temperature required to form slag. The furnaces (cavity 30 in. Deep, side-walls 26 in. High, 2 tuyere-openings) found in Sinai in which copper ores were smelted about 4000 b.c.1 had this form; the furnaces of Laurium were similar. In early times low shaft furnaces with natural or forced draft formed the ap paratus, and charcoal the fuel. Agricola2 states that in 1556 the inhabitants of the present Austrian province of Carinthia used what may be called a closed stall with inclined bottom for treating galena; they kindled a wood fire and charged the ore upon it, whereupon lead was liberated and, trickling down the hearth, was collected in a basin. Similar contrivances, the Log-furnace and Ash-furnace, were used in smelting ores in the Mississippi valley about 1720. These were in operation until 1836, when the first Scotch ere-hearth was erected. Percy' states that in 1730 the ore-hearth was in operation in Derbyshire, England.

Excerpt from The Metallurgy of the Common Metals: Gold, Silver, Iron, Copper, Lead, and Zinc This outline of the metallurgy of the common metals, namely, gold, silver, iron, copper, lead, and zinc, is devoted to the description of processes for winning these metals from their ores and then refining them. The metallurgy of iron is treated only to the point where pig-iron is obtained. Following the description of ores, as well as of the fuels used in smelting them, and the materials of which the furnaces are con structed, we come to sampling, for the determination of the exact value of the ore before treatment. A chapter has been devoted to the subject of thermo-chemistry as applied to igneous methods of extraction. The winning or reduction of' the various metals is then taken up in order, and is followed by. A description of the methods of refining them. Attention is then given to commercial considerations, since the processes must be conducted in a profitable way.

Excerpt from The Metallurgy of the Common Metals: Gold, Silver, Iron (and Steel), Copper, Lead and Zinc Since 1913, the date of the last edition, such radical changes and improvements have been made in the-metallurgy of the common metals, that this edition of 1921 has been largely rewritten to bring it in accord with present practice, as will be seen by examination of the following pages. Great pains have been taken to clearly set forth underlying principles and at the same time to give the details of methods and of metallurgical equip ment, and their cost. It is realized that, due to the rapid advance in prices, the costs of operation have lately been subject to serious modification. A chapter has been devoted to questions of the economic situation of the business of metallurgy. Little attempt has been made to describe methods not now in use.

Excerpt from The Metallurgy of Zinc and Cadmium Although the zinc industry of the world ranks in importance with the copper and lead industries, there has never been printed heretofore a special treatise on the metallurgy of zinc. Such essays on this subject as have been published in generally available form are embodied in the handbooks on general metallurgy and industrial chemistry, which being necessarily brief fail to describe adequately the modern practice in this branch of metallurgy. Besides these there is no literature on the subject save in the files of technical periodicals and the transactions of scientific societies, chie y French and German, inasmuch as the Belgian and German engineers have led the way in this branch of metallurgy, until recently at least.

Excerpt from Lead and Its Compounds IN the present volume the author has endeavoured to.show the great strides made in the metallurgy of lead and zinc, and to incorporate in it the latest applications of electrical science, not only in cleansing the ores, but also in their after treatment. The work also contains a description of the pigments of both metals, their manufacture and properties; and to make this portion as comprehensive as possible, the drying oils and siccatives, and their relation to pigments, are dealt with. In addition to other information of importance to the colourist, the value of the work is enhanced by a chapter devoted to the assaying and analysis of lead and zinc ores, and the quantitative testing of paints and oils. The book is divided into seventeen chapters, and is illustrated with forty drawings, specially made by Mr. Levi Lambert, to whom great credit is due. In conclusion, the author hopes the work will be studied with advantage by those engaged in the above branches of industry.
