Victorian Mining Bibliography
The Victorian Mining Bibliography (VMB) is an index to information held mainly at Information@DPI relating to Victorian mines. It is indexed by location, mine name / company name or subject. VMB references are mainly from historical Victorian Mines Dept. / Geological Survey of Victoria reports.
Other sources include:
- Australian Mining Standard
- Chemical, Engineering and Mining Review
- Colonial Mining Journal
- Dickers Mining Record
- Parliamentary Papers
- Royal Society of Victoria Proceedings and Transactions
- Transactions of the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy
Records also include Victorian groundwater, some general geological references and some fossil references.
VMB articles are available for viewing and copying at Information@DPI.
If you are located in another Australian state or territory it may be possible to obtain a copy of some VMB items from your state mining department.
Alternatively, you may request material using the Interlibrary Loan system through any Australian library.
