MINERAL RESOURCES.
EMPIRE POTENTIALITIES. WORK OF RESEARCH BUREAU. London, Jan. 1. Sir Richard Redmayne, interviewed with reference to the work of the Imperial Mineral Resources Bureau, of which he is chairman, pointed out that an immense amount of valuable work had been done throughout the Empire since tlt,e composition of the bureau was completed in July, 1918. The bureau is engaged in an extensive statistical classification of the Empire's mineral resources through the medium of sixteen technical committees, comprising some of the best known mining and metallurgical experts in the Empire. With the view of establishing a still closer connection with the bureau, it is suggested that all parts of the Empire should appoint a qualified representative to act as corresponding member Sir Richard Redmayne mentioned as an unqualified success the experiment adopted in South Africa and India of sending a technical representative to the United Kingdom to keep in close touch with the bureau- The experiment, he said, had been of reciprocal advantage.
