The one million ounce Newrnont Gold loan has focussed attention on gold's new role as a financing vehicle. This paper explains the background of the new role for gold, and details various gold denominated products now available to the mining industry. The discussion highlights the importance of gold-based products, and how they should be used in developing business strategy for gold mining companies. [ ]

The first session of the 91st term of Congress became so completely snarled up in economics and politics that no one knows how things will go in 1970 including the White House. Everything from mineral depletion allowances to tax deferments kept the Republican President and the Democratic Congress from settling their differences. But as these reconcilements approach definition, a new battleground develops around the President's authority to make trade and tariff adjustments.

The total production of crude oil in Canada showed only a small improvement in 1936 over 1935, but developments of great importance took place in Alberta on the west flank of the Turner Valley field in the foothills southwest of Calgary. These have led to renewed activity in drilling such as has not been experienced for many years, and undoubtedly this will result in a very considerable increase in the oil production during 1937.

Anderson: Will, I have known you for only the past 30 years of your extraordinary mining career, and have often wondered just how it got started. Wright: I suppose you might say it was largely a matter of heritage. My father, who in 1886 was one of the founders of the Michigan College of Mines, was Michigan State Geologist until his un- timely death in 1888.

Since World War II, U. S. chemical companies have loosed a flood of synthetic organic insecticides. These synthetics fall into two broad categories. DDT is the best known of the chlorinated hydro- carbons and Parathion is the most famous (or infamous) of the organic phosphate nerve gas type. Insecticide poisons are not applied at full strength but as dilute sprays or dusts. This permits a broader and more efficient distribution of the active killer.

FACED with processing an increasing volume of raw material through its existing plant, early in 1955 Calaveras Cement Co. of California considered incorporating liquid cyclones in its raw mill grinding circuits. One of many problems was the prospect of handling larger volumes of finished slurry through existing pipelines. Fixed capacities of the mechanical classifiers also placed limits on plant expansion.

We have devised a multivariate statistical model useful to interpret data from exploration geochemistry and also pertinent for the analysis of data from petrology, paleontology, and other geological fields. The model is applied to several simulated cases in order to compare anomaly recognition by inspection and by quadratic regression.

CERTAIN titanium alloys when quenched to retain the 0 phase at room temperature show extensive transformation of 0 to martensitic a during deformation. Alloys of this type are usually characterized by low tensile yield strength, a large spread between yield strength and ultimate strength, and high uniform elongation. A previous investigation of this phenomenon concluded that the principal contribution of the martensitic transformation was to increase the amount of deformation prior to fail-

Three. meetings for the presentation and discussion of papers were held in 1914, as follows: The 107th Meeting, including the Annual Business Meeting, in New York, Feb. 16 to 19; the 108th Meeting, Aug. 10 to 14, in Salt Lake City, and the 109th Meeting, Oct. 8 to 10, in Pittsburgh, Pa., under the auspices of Iron and Steel Committee, Committee on Coal and Coke, Committee on Petroleum and Gas, Committee on Non-Metallic Minerals. Local Sections ' Three new local sections were established during the year, namely; / Pennsylvania Anthracite Section, Chicago Section, and Utah Section.

AS the available remaining properties of iron ore reserves on the Mesabi Range are opened up for mining, the various properties located under lake beds are brought nearer an active status. The actual physical problems involved in stripping these properties do not act as a deterrent so much as the legal and political problems that are encountered.
