Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive insight into the world of gold mining and the various risks involved, with specific focus on non-dividend-paying gold mining companies in the British colonies and other regions. Gold mining has often had an unsavory reputation due to harsh working con…ditions and the rash actions of those looking to make money quickly. However, the author suggests this industry has played an integral role in the economic growth of nations such as Britain and America. By examining data from over 2900 companies between the years 1880 and 1900, the author identifies three main causes of failure for gold mining companies: misrepresentation of the value of properties, over-capitalization and want of working capital, and mismanagement and ignorance of mining. These findings provide valuable insight for those considering investing in gold mining and shed light on the complexities of this industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
