This paper aims to characterise the forms of slope instability incident in surface coal mines in Britain. These are related to observed controlling factors, with particular reference being given to slope geometry and structure. The work is based on specific data collection programmes considering actual stable and unstable mine slopes. Reference is made to field examples.

AMONG the many interesting objects to be seen at the Vienna Exhibition last summer, the model of the system of underground transportation by a continually moving chain, adopted at the Hasard collieries, at Micheroux, near Liége, Belgium, was one of the most attractive, and full of valuable suggestion to mining engineers. These collieries are under the superintendence of the celebrated

The paper gives a general solution of ventilation net- works where densities play an important role and fans operating at different densities from branch densities are considered. Both the physics and computing techniques needed to deal with these networks are discussed.

Professor Lane makes an interesting contribution to the study of cholride waters, in saying that calcium chloride waters occur not only in the greenstones of Lake Superior copper mines, but also in the interbedded felsitic conglomerated and…

D. W. OHERN, Oklahoma, Okla. (communication to the Secretary*). -The author states: "A shale layer buried beneath 2,000 or 3,000 ft. of strata, in some instances, will upon folding become thicker in the synclines and thinner on top of the anticlines." In any series of folded strata there is a level of no strain. Provided the strata do not slip on each other, there would be above this level a thickening of strata in the synclines and a thinning on the anticlines, as the author states, while the converse would obtain below this level. In order that the author's

QUANTITATIVE appraisal of the chances of finding various tonnages and grades of ore clarifies any exploratory development proposal. Ways are discussed of appraising chances in conformance with probability principles, and graphs are suggested to show tonnages, grades and the corresponding judged expectancies.

Rich Hill is situated in the famous car-wheel iron region of Southwestern Virginia, and although it contains many iron ores, this paper will be devoted chiefly to its car-wheel ore. Geologically, Rich Hill is somewhat difficult to describe, as the strata of the region are seriously folded and contorted. It lies at the base of one of the primordial spurs of the Blue Ridge, the ore appearing as a sedimentary deposit on the limestone No. 2, sometimes showing an imperfect stratification, but generally being an

Geological investigation and research have contributed greatly in making industrial minerals the basis of an important industry in the state. North Carolina contains a wide variety of industrial minerals and rock. Mica, feldspar, kaolin, halloysite, talc, pyrophyllite, sillimanite, and spodumene are used to illustrate the progress being made.
