Description of the tin veins of Polgoolh mine, which were observed by author 

 or on which data were communicated to him, in 1791, by Capt. Phillips, director 

 of mine, data being gathered as the working of mine opened it up. 



398. . On the stratified deposits of tinstone, called tin-floors, and on 



the diffusion of tinstone through the mass of some primitive rocks. 



Trans. Roy. Geol. Soc. Cornwall, Vol. 2, 1822, Penzance, pp. 29-48. 



A description of the Cornwall tin deposits known as tin-floors is given, also 

 an account of the form of deposit known in Germany as " stockworks " and methods 

 used by Germans in working such deposits. 



399. . Observations on the alluvial strata at Forth, Sandrycock and 



Pentuan. 



Trans. Roy. Geol. Soc. Cornwall, Vol. 2, 1822, Penzance, pp. 285-289.
