Excerpt:
It was decided, as an interim measure, to use the facilities of the Internet to establish a full list of mining historians and potential delegates to the next conference and improve opportunities for continuing communication between researchers. The task was taken-up by Dr Roger Burt of the Department of Economic & Social History, University of Exeter. The mining historian's list appears as People in the MHN homepage.
Annotation:
This site offers those interested in the history of mining a number of potentially useful resources. Bibliographies are compiled on mining history, organized by geography and topic. There are also links to mining historical societies, databases, the mining history email list, and other related sites. Finally an alphabetized index of mining historians with contact information is available.
