  • Science and the Changing Environment in India 1780-1920: A Guide to Sources in the India Office Records by Richard Axelby and Savithri Preetha Nair 2009. For a review of this book see Research guides reading list. The guide is arranged in eleven chapters including one in respect of geology. Section A is "Mineral Resources" and the introduction to this reads: "Of the minerals which detail the discovery and extraction of the mineral resources of India, those on coal and iron are arranged geographically. There follows lists of sources for other minerals and metals, including copper, diamonds and precious stones, gold, lead, limestone, oil, stone, shale and slate, tin , silver, saltpetre, borax and antimony. Further reports on the mineral resources of India are in the series of publications of the Geological Survey of India. " This chapter is eleven pages long and covers a lot of references.
