> The Northern Mine Research Society is pleased to announce the issue of the
72nd volume in its British Mining Series - The Mines of Yorkshire
(Metalliferous and associated minerals), by Mike Gill and Roger Burt. This
major research tool is the result of over 20 years work on a wide range of
sources and nothing similar is available for any other part of Britain. The
original Yorkshire Mineral Statistics, covering the period 1845-1913, was
published in 1982 and was based on national information published annually
by the government. This new volume has greatly enhanced that material by
including more recent government statistics, together with earlier data from
mining and smelting accounts which has vastly extended the period covered.
With the mines arranged alphabetically, this volume will be indispensable
for anyone wishing to know more about Yorkshire's metalliferous mines, while
the personal index will be of great value both to mining historians and
genealogists. At least two more volumes covering Yorkshire's coal industry
will follow and work on the first of these is well advanced.
