What Comes Back, and What It Costs to Get

What comes off the southern hulls is a short list and each item has a destination that has not changed in a generation. Nitrates and sulphur from the southern districts go to the powder mills. Rare mineral salts and compounds from the black country go to works that will not describe what they do with them. Small parcels of gems go to the cutting trade. Pigments, gums and unusual ores go to assayers, dyers and alchemical houses. Hardwoods and true jungle dyes come chiefly from the greener southern fringe, not from the barren continental heart.

The rest of this chapter is kept for Enhanced members of the Hall, who may read every chapter of the seven volumes.
