The elements dealt with are antimony, bismuth, cadmium,, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, manganese, mercury, nickel, thallium, tin and zinc. Each reference indicates the nature of the information to be found in the paper. The largest sections deal with copper, lead and manganese, which account for half the references quoted.
