'Much information is afforded regarding gold reefs of every formation, and this is supplemented by a number of sketches which intelligently illustrate the subject, and instructions are given showing the novice how to "pan," or "sink a shaft," and do many elementary things in his research for valuable minerals. The various goldfields of Africa are described - not only the banket reefs of the Rand, but those in less known districts, and there are many maps, plans, and drawings illustrating the different sections and formations of the gold belts.' - Mendelssohn Vol.I, page 804
