Transcriber’s Notes

Depending on the hard- and software used to read this text and their
settings, not all elements may display as intended. Some of the
tables may be illegible on small screens or in narrow windows.

Spelling, capitalisation and hyphenation as used in the source
document (including the errors and inconsistencies in company,
geographic and proper names, titles of publications, etc.) have not
been corrected or standardised, except as mentioned under Changes made
below. Results of calculations in tables are given in this text
as they appear in the source document, even though they appear to
contain occasional calculation and/or rounding off errors or are
based on incomplete or contradictory data.

Page 50, Table 7, table row Austria: the remark in the last column
may be better suited for the row Hungary.

Page 278, Footnote [132] Percentage of mean of totals used in a
and b: a and b refer to the columns with footnotes [130] and [131]
respectively.

Pages 508 and 510, Tables 72 and 74: these tables are (almost)
identical in the source document as well.

Changes made

Tables and illustrations have been moved out of text paragraphs;
footnotes have been renumbered sequentially and moved to directly
under the paragraph where they are referenced.

In several of the tables data have been aligned more consistently
than in the source document. Some tables have been split or otherwise
re-arranged to fit the available width. These tables have been split
so that it is straightforward to recombine them into single tables.

Some obvious minor typographical and punctuation errors have been
corrected silently.

Page ix: Platinum, by James H. Hill changed to Platinum, by James M.
Hill.

Page 35: Dorfmund changed to Dortmund.

Page 45: Alden changed to Aden.

Page 50, Table 7: References to page 49 (Austria, Hungary) replaced

Page 148: footnote anchor [78] inserted in table heading.

Page 224, Table 35: column header Western Hemisphere moved to
separate row; row Total Eastern Hemisphere: values 1,113,000,
212,750, 98,000, 31,000 and 125,000 moved to row World Total.

Page 278, Table 53: first column Per cent. under Primary pig lead,
Smelter production (values 0.2, 4.5, etc.) considered to be intended
as second column under Imports, Recoverable lead content of ores and
concentrate.

Page 432: ... and the latter in, exhaustibly available ... changed to
... and the latter inexhaustibly available ....

Page 509-510: Footnote anchor [186] inserted after both occurrences
