12 MANGANESE DEPOSITS OF INDIA : INTRODUCTION. [ PaRT I: 
It was my original intention to render this Memoir more complete 
and generally useful by including in it a brief 
Literature of foreign . r . i <• • i • , e 
manganese-ore deposits, accoimt 01 tne loreign deposits ot manganese-ore . 
On going into the question, however, I found the 
literature about this mineral to be so voluminous and the deposits so 
numerous, that to do justice to the subject it would be necessary to 
increase the size of this work much beyond its present dimensions. Conse- 
quently I have decided to omit any account of the foreign deposits except 
for comparative references in the text. Instead, however, I will give a 
short bibliography, which makes no pretension to completeness, but gives 
some of the more important papers dealing with this mineral. By looking 
up these references, especially those deaUng with the subject in a general 
way, it will be possible for anyone to obtain access to practically all 
the available literature. 
By far the best general account of the manganese-ore deposits of the 
world is contained in A. W. Stelzner and A. Bergeat's ' Die Erzlager- 
statten the first of the references classified under ' general ' below. In 
this work the deposits are classified according to their origin and mode 
of occurrence, whilst copious references are given to the literature of the 
subject.
