Thomas Knyvett Richmond

“ His well-known work on the ‘Metallurgy of Iron’ was published in 1868, and reached its sixth and last edition in 1890. Of his two text-books on mineralogy, ‘Systematic Mineralogy’ came out in 1881 and ‘Descriptive Mineralogy’ in 1884. Lastly, in 1887 he collaborated with J. A. Phillips in revising and enlarging the latter's ‘Elements of Metallurgy,’ which was originally published in 1874 (3rd edit. 1891) .
In his later years Bauerman devoted himself mainly to teaching. In 1874 he first acted as an examiner of the science and art department. ”

“ In 1853 he went to the Bergakademie at Freiburg in Saxony to complete his studies, and on his return to England in 1855 he was appointed an assistant geologist to the Geological Survey of the United Kingdom. In 1858 he went to Canada as geologist to the North American boundary commission, and after the completion of its labours in 1863 he was intermittently engaged for many years in searching for mineral deposits and surveying mining properties in various parts of the world, chiefly by private persons or by companies, but also by the Indian and Egyptian governments (1867–9) . ”
