Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Resources of Minas Geraes (Brazil) Every writer who has made a study of the mineral resources of Brazil has been struck by the amazing anomaly that proportionately as the incalculable extent and richness of those resources has become better known, the mining industry of the country has diminished. Many reasons have been advanced to explain the enigma that the facts present. The liberation of the slave-workers, bad legislation and exorbitant taxation, lack of railway communication, political unrest and financial instability, and the incompetence and dishonesty that have attended the exploitation of the mines and the management of the companies that have been formed to work them, are among the numerous disabilities from which the industry has suffered in the past; but while these drawbacks are being steadily removed, the disfavour, into which mining enterprise in the Republic has fallen, remains. The Brazilians themselves, apparently indifferent to the enormous national asset which these minerals represent, have devoted their activities to agricultural advancement, and it would almost seem that these people, with a score of potential gold-fields at their very doors, are immune from that "gold fever" which has rendered possible the recent stupendous progress that has been made by a host of other countries less rich in minerals than their own. The diamond industry of Brazil is a dwindling enterprise in the hands of individual prospectors and ill-equipped bands of miners, although for a century and a half which succeeded the discovery of the first brilliant in Diamantina, Brazil's output of diamonds exceeded that of any other country.

Excerpt: ... came into the capital of the State with over 300 fine stones found in the Rio Graca, a tributary of the Araguaya. In Matto Grosso, the principal seat of the diamond mining is the River Coxipo Mirim. The depth of the cascalho varies, but the maximum is about 14 ft., and is comprised of jaspers, amethysts and chalcedonies, rose zircons, anatase, almandine garnets, white topazes, sphenes, native silver, &c. The diamonds are small, the largest found being 5 carats. The form is usually dodecahedron with well curved faces. The surrounding formation is schists and quartzites. No carbonates or boart is found. FAMOUS BRAZILIAN DIAMONDS. Two diamonds produced by Brazil have become historic under the names of the Estrella do Sul and the Diamond of Dresden, both of which are now owned by an Indian prince. Both were found in the alluvial workings of the River Bagagem. The Estrella do Sul, discovered in 1853, weighed in the rough 255 carats and 125 carats cut, and the Dresden Diamond weighed carats uncut and 63J carats cut. In 1910 a third gem was discovered, weighing 175 carats, which has been named the Estrella de Minas. Dr. Derby, writing in the American Journal of Science (September, 1910), advances the theory that these three diamonds were of the same original form, i.e., that of a combination of curved faces, constituting a dome rising from a plane surface. The River Abaete produced a stone of 161J carats in 1797, and another, later, of 48 carats. In 1906 a stone of some 600 carats was encountered in the River Verissimo, in Southern Goyaz, not very far from Bagagem, but was destroyed by being tested on an anvil with a sledgehammer. A splendid brilliant, dating from colonial times, near to ruby red in colour, and weighing 2f carats. sold in...

Download or read book A British Enterprise in Brazil written by Marshall C. Eakin and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-12 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marshall Eakin presents what may be the most detailed study ever written about the operations of a foreign business in Latin America and the first scholarly, book-length study of any foreign business enterprise in Brazil. Between 1830 and 1970 the British-owned St. John d’el Rey Mining Company, Ltd. constructed a diverse business conglomerate around Minas Gerais, South America’s largest gold mine, in Nova Lima. Until the 1950s the company was the largest industrial firm and the largest taxpayer in Brazil’s most populous state. Utilizing company and local archives, Eakin shows that the company was surprisingly ineffective in translating economic success into political influence in Brazil. The most impressive impact of the British operation was at the local level, transforming a small, agrarian community into a sizable industrial city. Virtually a company town, Nova Lima experienced a small-scale industrial revolution as the community made the transition from the largest industrial slave complex in Brazil to a working-class city torn by labor strife and violence between communists and their opponents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE INDUSTRY THAT FORGED THE MODERN WORLD Throughout history metals and raw materials have underpinned human activity. So it is that the industry responsible for extracting these materials from the ground - mining - has been ever present throughout the history of civilisation, from the ancient world of the Egyptians and Romans, to the industrial revolution and the British Empire, and through to the present day, with mining firms well represented on the world's most important stock indexes including the FTSE100. This book traces the history of mining from those early moments when man first started using tools to the present day where metals continue to underpin economic activity in the post industrial age. In doing so, the history of mining methods, important events, technological developments, the important firms and the sparkling personalities that built the industry are examined in detail. At every stage, as the history of mining is traced from 40,000BC to the present day, the level of detail increases in accordance with the greater social and industrial developments that have played out as time has progressed. This means that a particular focus is given to the period since the industrial revolution and especially the 20th century. A look is also taken into the future in an effort to chart the direction this great industry might take in years to come. Many books have been written about mining; the majority have focused on a particular metal, geographical area, mining event or mining personality, but 'The History of Mining' has a broader scope and covers all of these essential and fascinating areas in one definitive volume.
