Riassunto

This book provides an exhaustive overview of the occurrence of Tungsten ores within New South Wales, Australia and serves as a valuable registry of known localities. The text is especially relevant to anyone with interests in Geology, Mining or Mineralogy. The author begins by discussing the global context of Tungsten production and its newfound significance during the late 19th century when the demand for Tungsten ores skyrocketed due to their use in creating Tungsten steel for artillery and tools. The book contains a detailed discussion of the composition of Tungsten ores, specifically Wolfram and Scheelite, while noting that Tungsten ores are often intimately associated with Tin and Bismuth ores. The author emphasizes that specific grades of Tungsten are required, and the presence of other metals like Tin in Tungsten ores can diminish the value of each metal during smelting and separation processes. Notably, the author includes a valuable register of Tungsten occurrences throughout New South Wales, making this book an essential reference for prospectors and geologists alike.
