OverviewExcerpt from The Mineral Industry of the British Empire and Foreign Countries: War Period; Quicksilver (1913-1919) The following digest of statistical and technical information relative to the production and consumption of Quicksilver will constitute a part of the Annual Volume on the Mineral Resources of the British Empire and Foreign Countries. Although nominally covering only the period of seven years ended 3lst December, 1919, the digest will be found to contain more recent statistical and other information relative to the British Empire and to certain of the more important Foreign Countries. In this, the first year of publication, an crrt has been made to fill in, as far as possible, the hiatus due to the war in the publications relating to mining and metallurgical statistics. Labour, health, and safety statistics have been omitted owing to the difficulty involved in procuring reliable information for the war period, but in future issues these statistics will be in cluded in respect of each year. Resort will also be had to graphical representation of statistics of production, consumption, costs, and prices. The weights of ore are expressed in long tons, that is to say the British statute ton of lh., those of quicksilver in lb. And values in pounds, shillings, and pence.
