Excerpt from Observations on Mineral Veins In complying with the request of some of my friends, to state through the medium of the Polytechnic Society's Report, my views relative to the formation of Mineral Veins, I am sensible, that the attempt to theorize on this subject, is somewhat premature, without a more thorough knowledge of facts, than I at present possess. I am, however, encouraged to hope, that an extensive circulation of the Report amongst the miners of Cornwall, may induce many of them to record the results of their experience and observations in our mines, and if so, one object of this communication, however defective it may be, will be accomplished. I propose, at the same time, to give a short account of some of the phenomena which are presented to us by our mineral veins, for the sake of those who are not conversant with the subject.
