Excerpt from Practical Stamp Milling and Amalgamation When I first engaged in stamp-milling and amalgamating, like many others I eagerly but unsuccessfully sought for a treatise that would tell me what and how to do and why; that would give the ideas and principles by which millmen were to be guided, and the methods found to be most satisfactory. Later the subject of examining ores and the adjusting of the stamp-mill to their requirements became of interest. This book is an attempt to give in a brief, concise way, information on these points. It incorporates my own experience and conclusions, and knowledge gathered from other millmen and metallurgists. It leaves theoretical discussions and academic distinctions aside, and goes straight to the details of practical work.
