Application of continuous filtration to precipitate dewatering requires not only careful equipment selection, choice of appropriate media, but also close control of precipitation technique itself.

Current theories of fracture maintain that brittle materials contain flaws or regions of weakness at which fracture originates. Whether a particular flaw grows depends upon the stress distribution in its vicinity and upon the presence of other stress relieving mechanisms capable of absorbing the applied energy. Under load, therefore, certain of these flaws will be activated, and the resulting fragments will have a size distribution determined by the spatial distribution of active flaws. Gaudin and Meloy,1 assuming a random occurrence of flaws, have derived the size distribution of fragments as

The history of iron ore milling in Chile can be divided into two periods: the first, which lasted about 40 years, ended in 1952 and the second continues today. During the first period, Bethlehem Chile Iron Mines Co. was the sole shipper and El Tofo, the only mine. That situation was forever altered in 1952 when several small independent companies began to sell ore. The success of these companies triggered programs of exploration which can only be described as a "boom" during the past five years.

IN several alloys of iron, copper, and lithium as well as in some pure metals, martensite formed on cooling reverts to the parent phase upon heating to a temperature below the equilibrium temperature at which the parent phase becomes stable.' These martensitic transformations, therefore, are thermally reversible, although appreciable hysteresis may be involved. The martensitic reaction has long been

The use and effectiveness of sealants in under-ground mines is a recognized and well accepted practice by many people in the mining industry. Their use however in many cases is to correct, or attempt to correct, problems that might have been avoided with sealant use in the early stages of development, and continued thereafter.

In his paper on "The Accumulation of Amalgam on Copper Plates,"f Mr. R. T. Baylies records the fact that at the Drumlummon mill, at Marysville, Montana, a series of tests proved that silver, instead of showing a strong affinity with the amalgamated surface of the copper plates, gave evidence of a persistent tendency to escape amalgamation; the fineness of the amalgam, as measured in gold, being highest nearest to the battery, and giving place to a constantly-increasing proportion

Nothing has disturbed the copper- lead-zinc producers in recent years more than smelter tolerances set by some states. What hurt most, copper spokesmen told the Government, was the Government's own erroneous estimates of smelter pollution controls. Government charts indicated that 23 firms smelting copper, lead and zinc may need to invest about $108 million by fiscal 1976 to control stack emissions. The copper industry's independent study, however, indicates that the required controls could cost as much as $550 million to install and $200 million a year to operate.

WHEREAS it is generally assumed that the highest temperature at which temper brittle-ness takes place is about 625°C, 1,2,3 Jaffe, Buffum, and coworkers have referred in several recent papers45,6,7 to the occurrence of temper brittleness in an SAE 3140 steel at 650" and 675°C. Their re- sults show that a considerable increase in transition

This contribution illustrates the application of the theory of period doubling to the description of the formation of microcracks in rocks. The fundamental mathematics is described and a method of prediction is proposed. The invariance (universal constants) of a generic microfracturing (damage) process is described. Finally, the method is presented as a deterministic method of predicting the failure of an engineering material while keeping track of the amount of damage that has occured at any point.

ACCORDING to the data of Maier and Ralston1 zinc vapor and carbon monoxide under the conditions in which they are present in a zinc condenser should, from a thermodynamic point of view, react to form zinc oxide and carbon, Zn (gas) + CO = ZnO (solid) + C. Calculations based on these results show that the gas mixture which is reducing to zinc oxide at the tempera-ture of the retort is oxidizing to zinc at the tempera-ture of the condenser. A series of experiments at the Pacific Experiment

High-grade cobalt concentrates were produced from the complex Blackbird ore with very good recovery in continuous pilot-plant operations in which a low-grade bulk cobaltite-pyrite flotation concentrate was roasted in a multiple-hearth furnace to oxidize the pyrite selectively. The cobaltite was floated from the resulting calcine.
