A Dictionary of Spanish and Spanish-American Mining, Metallurgical, and Allied Terms, to which some Portuguese and Portuguese - American (Brazilian) Terms are Added

Abstract

IN view of the magnitude of the mining industries of Spain, Mexico, Central America, Peru, Chile, Bolivia, and other South American countries, there can be no doubt that there is a large and increasing number of English and American mining engineers who will appreciate a good dictionary of mining tetms, and certainly the author has spared no pains to make his dictionary as complete as possible. He has diligently studied the Spanish literature of mining and metallurgy, and his long residence in Mexico and in the United States of Colombia has enabled him to include a very full list of the terms used in these republics. Some Portuguese and Brazilian terms are also added.

A Dictionary of Spanish and Spanish-American Mining, Metallurgical, and Allied Terms, to which some Portuguese and Portuguese - American (Brazilian) Terms are Added.
