Excerpt from On Coal at Home and Abroad: With Relation to Consumption, Cost, Demand, and Supply and Other Inquiries of Present Interest; Being Three Articles Contributed to the Edinburgh Review In like manner we may pursue our enquiry into the consumption of coal for the reduction of all of the metallic ores raised by us or sent here. Keeping to the year 1869, and adverting to lead, it was estimated that in smelting and desilverising the tons of lead ore then raised, about tons of coal were burnt, and that for the ten preceding years the average annual con sumption of coal for such work of all kinds must have been tons. If the lead ore imported by us in 1869 be added, the estimate of coal consumed must be raised to tons. Of zinc, it may be added, that if we include the large imports of that metal, our zinc smelters used, for the whole reduction of the zinc in the same year, as much as tons of coal.
