"In gathering material for KAIAS & COCOPANS, Anthony Hocking made a special effort to research the widely varied mining methods that have been used in Northern Cape mines. He visited nearly all the sites he refers to, not only the mines and quarries still in operation but also workings that were abandoned long ago, and he interviewed many scores of Northern Cape mining men, both past and present. The result is a fascinating record of an industry that makes a major contribution to South Africa's prosperity and through its exports wields influence in many parts of the world."
