In Sweden in 1870-Y5 about 80 to 150 tons of nickel were produced annually, in 1880-85 about 40 to 80, while of re- cent years the annual output has fallen to from 10 to 30 Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Natural History Society of Montreal.
