LITERATURE OP INDIAN DEPOSITS. 
11 
Manual of the Geology of India, published in 1887, gave a summary of 
what was then known about the Indian manganese minerals. To this 
work I shall refer as Mallet's Mineralogy. After this, two important papers 
entitled ' The Manganese-iron and Manganese- ores of Jabalpur ' l 
and ' The Manganiferous Iron and Manganese ores of Jabalpur '2, 
respectively, were written by P. N. Bose, then of the Geological Survey 
of India. The former paper deals with the economic results of an 
examination of the deposits round Gosalpur and Sihora in the Jabalpur 
district, Central Provinces, and the second with their geological occurrence 
and origin. My own work has been summarized in Dr. Holland's 
Review of Mineral Production and in his General Reports on the work of 
the Geological Survey of IndiaS ; whilst I have so far published the 
following papers relative to the Indian manganese-ore deposits : — 
1. Analyses of Manganese ores.^ 
2. ' A new form of blue Amphibole from Central India.'* 
3. ' An unusual occurrence of Common Salt.'* 
4. ' Notes on the Petrology and Manganese-Ore Deposits of the Sausar 
Tahsil, Chhindwara district, Central Provinces. '7 
5. ' On Manganite from the Sandur Hills. '8 
6. ' On the Association of Gibbsite with Manganese-ore from Talevadi, Bel- 
gaum district, and on Gibbsite from Bhekowli, Satara district. '9 
7. ' Manganese in India. ' 
Of these, the last-named paper was published in the Transactions of the 
Mining and Geological Institute of India, Vol. I, pp. 69-131 (discussion 
pp. 221-233). Besides various woodcuts and photographs of manganese 
mines it contains three maps. It is at present out of print, but is being 
reprinted and will probably be available again before this Memoir. 
Those who require only a brief outline accotmt of Indian manganese-ore 
deposits, I would refer to the paper mentioned rather than to the pre- 
sent Memoir.
