H. [Hermann] Wedding, About the Freiberg smelting industry; Procedures of the Freiberg smelteries. Copy from a notebook by H. Th. [Hieronymus Theodor] Richter; H. [Hermann] Wedding, various notes
This manuscript is a collection of notes, which were compiled by Hermann Wedding (1834-1908), later professor of ferrous metallurgy at the Bergakademie Berlin (mining academy), during his visits to the smelteries in Freiberg (Saxony) in 1856/57. The notes were taken while he was a student at the Freiberg mining academy and include his own observations of the procedures at the various silver and lead smelteries around Freiberg. The notes also contain copies of relevant scientific publications about metallurgical procedures that were used in Freiberg.
