Excerpt from The Mineral Industry of the British Empire and Foreign Countries: War Period, Platinum and Allied Metals, (1913-1919) The following digest of statistical and technical information relative to the production and consumption of Zinc will constitute a part of the Annual Volume on the Mineral Resources of the British Empire and Foreign Countries constituting the Annual Mineral Conspectus of the Bureau. Although nominally covering only the period of seven years ending 31st December, 1919, the digest will be found to contain more recent statistical and other information relative to production and consumption in the more important countries concerned. In this, first year of publication, an effort has been made to fill in, as far as possible, the hiatus due to the war in the publications relating to mining and metallurgical statistics. Labour, health and safety statistics have been omitted owing to the difficulty involved in procuring reliable information for the war period, but in future issues such statistics as are available will be included in respect of each year. Resort will also be had to graphical representation of statistics of production, consumption and prices. The quantities of platinum and allied metals are expressed in troy ounces, the weights of platiniferous ores, mattes, etc., in short tons of 2,000 lb., and values in pounds, shillings and pence at par rates of exchange.
