Abstract
IT is much to be regretted that this volume must be looked upon as the swan-song of the old regime in Ireland rather than as the first effort of the new authorities. Information as to the mineral resources of Ireland has never before been collected into any authoritative memoir, but had to be sought for piecemeal among a number of miscellaneous geological and mining publications, for, as the author of the present work correctly observes, Sir Robert Kane's book on the industrial resources of Ireland is now far too old to be of any real value under the economic conditions of the present day.
