- The account reports a concession covering about 529.6 km² across Trepça, Rogozna and Slatina Sokolica.
Field notes
The account places company formation in a three-city operating arrangement: registration in London, general management in Zveçan, and a business office in Belgrade. It reports roughly 2,400 workers, 60 engineers, and 50 administrative staff at the start, with capital rising from nearly £300,000 toward £1 million. The archive also separates company-era photographs from a section on the colony and mines as they appear today.
