It is not made in the sense that brass is made or other metals; The principal countries that supply tin are the East Indies. the Islandsotv Banca.

There are also mines in Saxony. Bohemia. Rnssil. Spain, Portugal and Japan. but the to- tal output of these countries is insig- nificant. The presence of tin deposits In California. Texas.
