These Indian furnaces are miniatures of those in Styria, described in the work of Jars, a French metallurgist, 1750. The ores there worked have a notable percentage of manganese, which affects the result, being seemingly favorable to the retention of a certain amount of carbon, but resisting the combination of the larger amount necessary to make castiron. Styria was not the only European country in which the simple furnace just described was used for smelting iron ore, for those of Sweden and Norway, 300 years ago, were of substantially the fusible mass of iron, such as was produced by the processes above referred to as carried on in ancient times in Elba, both anciently and more lately in India and Styria, and elsewhere. This clears up much of the difficulty in the reading of the ancient records, where iron always appears in a malleable form, the tools used by t
