The use of fire in prehistoric and ancient mining-firesetting
Le rôle du feu, utilisé principalement pendant des millénaires pour extraire les roches dures avant l'introduction de la poudre noire, est décrit et ses effets naturels sont examinés. Les données archéologiques et historiques sont utilisées pour voir leur ancienneté et la manière dont le feu a servi dans différentes situations. Des exemples préhistoriques provenant d'Europe, du Moyen- Orient et d'Extrême-Orient viennent appuyer les données peu no…

The Industrial Landscape of Rio Tinto, Huelva, Spain
Rio Tinto has the largest deposits of pyrite and copper pyrite and associated minerals in Europe. It was exploited by the pre-Roman Iberians for silver and copper, and later by the Romans. The greatest change to the landscape came with open-pit mining or quarrying by the British Rio Tinto Company in the late nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century for pyrite for sulphur and copper. Even this will be obliterated by current m…

Ancient lead and zinc mining in Rajasthan, India
Lead and zinc mines in Rajasthan, India, were examined, in relation to, especially, the early use of zinc as a metal. Carbon dates of circa 2000 years before present established Zawar as the world's oldest zinc mines. Large‐scale mining for lead at Rajpura‐Dariba goes back to circa 3000 years before present. Major features found are described, emphasising the considerable scale of operations, and methods used
