520			_a"Asbestos, Its Production and Use" by Robert H. Jones is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the properties, production processes, and various applications of asbestos, particularly focusing on the asbestos mines in Canada and Italy. The text aims to provide authentic information on this mineral, which was gaining significant commercial interest during this time. The opening of the publication introduces the topic of asbestos, describing its unique properties and historical uses. Jones notes how asbestos became increasingly recognized for its value in industrial applications and details his journey of compiling information, which originally stemmed from letters written to a friend in London. He discusses the mining practices, geographical distribution, and gradations of asbestos, comparing the Canadian and Italian varieties while highlighting the growing demand and future potential of this remarkable mineral.
