Abstract
The period since World War II has been a very troubled one, but one of great economic and industrial expansion throughout the world. One consequence has been an exponential growth in the use of metals and other mineral-derived raw materials, and that growth has raised the question of whether the mineral requirements of industry can be met in future years.
