About this title

Synopsis

Commentaries On The Mining Ordinances Of Spain: Dedicated To His Catholic Majesty, Charles III by Francisco Xavier de Gamboa is a scholarly English translation of a major Spanish legal treatise on the mining laws of New Spain (Mexico). Originally published in 1830, this two-volume work surveys the extensive framework governing mining operations, including boundary determination, boundary alterations, and the division and ownership of veins; internal communications between different mines; pits, adits and contraminas for drainage; possessory and petitory suits; the civil and criminal jurisdictions relevant to mining; the duties and prerogatives of viceroys, justices, and crown officers; and the administration of the royal mint. It presents a systematized compilation of ordinances, their commentary, and practical considerations for upholding public interest, revenue, and imperial governance in the mining districts of the Spanish Americas. The translation includes a historical context, notes on terminology, and illustrative examples drawn from the mining districts of New Spain and Peru, along with biographical details of the author and translator.
