William Teague

William Teague died in November, 1912, aged 65 years; within a few weeks of his election as an Associate of the Institution.

He joined the Institution so as to be able to take part in the meetings and discussions, and to keep in touch with current mining methods, especially as regards mine ventilation in which he was greatly interested. His mining experience dated back as far as 1862, and the earlier part of it was almost entirely confined to Cornwall, where he managed such well-known mines as Tincroft, Carn Brea and Wheal Kitty. In 1890 he went to South Africa, where he practised for some years as a consulting engineer. In recent years he resided in Cornwall and continued to follow his profession as a consulting mining engineer.

As previously stated, Mr. Teague was elected an Associate of the Institution in 1912.
