Excerpt from Notes and Formulae for Mining Students I AM frequently asked by students to advise them as to the course of study they should pursue in order to pass the Colliery Managers' examination; or, more generally, to enable them to become properly qualified mining engineers. So far as the certificate is concerned, I have always found (premising, of course, a thorough knowledge of reading, writing, and arithmetic), that an intimate acquaintance with all the details of a colliery, both above and below ground, is of much more importance than book learning. The student should, however, have the Mines Act, General and Special Rules at his fingers' ends, and such a knowledge of the theory of the gases and ventilation as may be obtained from Atkinson's? Book. But, of the man who aspires to a high place amongst the mining engineers of the next gene ration, something more than this is required. Every year the necessity of a thorough grounding in certain depart ments of science is becoming more apparent, and I have no hesitation in saying that the successful English mining engineer of the future will have to be (as his continental rival long has been), not only a good practical man. But a man of science as well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
