In "Mine Drainage, Southeast Missouri Lead District," Trans. AIME, (1943) 153, 74-81, the general water conditions in the lead mines of Southeast Missouri were described. Some comments developed from the experience of time and some further

MOST of the current high temperature materials are precipitation-hardened alloys. These alloys are usually soft when quenched from a solution heat-treatment temperature, but become harder

The use of point load test data by the authors to estimate rock mass cohesion is a very ingenious approach. It must be emphasized that this estimate is indeed only an estimate since the point load strength index employed to predict the uniaxial compressive strength (and subsequently predict the cohesion) is likewise only an estimate.

THE following calculation of heat requirement covers the working of the furnace from January 25th to February 14th, inclusive. A short time previous to the first date the furnace had been working rather badly, so that 300 lbs. of ore and 500 lbs. of limestone were taken off. Within the time mentioned the quality of the iron passed

The treatment of unaltered western phosphate ores by both wet and dry methods is discussed. The objective of the beneficiation is to produce salable Phosphate rock ( 31% P205), with an economic recovery of P205.

The important investigations of Dr. G. F. Becker at Steamboat Springs, Nev., in 1885, aided by the analytical work of W. H. Melville, established the fact that sulphides were being deposited at the surface by hot ascending waters.' Steamboat Springs is situated near the eastern base of the escarpment of the Sierra Nevada, six miles distant from the Comstock lode.

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.

I HEREWITH send to the Institute a sample of Pancake coal. It is rather early yet to make any estimate of the future value of the discovery; but it is certainly the most promising vein of coal yet discovered in the State of Nevada, and, I believe, the first true coal found west of the Rocky Mountains, or perhaps west of the Missouri River, unless some of the Utah coals belong to the coal measures of the Carboniferous age. The Pancake vein certainly belongs

INTRODUCTION The mineral sample is the fundamental unit upon which the mineral appraisal is built. Values derived from the sample are the most important quantitative measurements made in the total evaluation process. The sample value

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.

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

The Cleveland (0.) gas pool described by Frank R. Van Horn,' is the northern extremity of the great "Clinton" sand gas development in Ohio. Numerous gas pools have been developed in this formation, which are now more or less connected, link by link, forming an almost continuous gas pool, starting at Cleveland, and running thence southward through Cuyahoga, Medina, Wayne, Ashland, Richland, Knox, Licking,

THIS paper describes the use of the magnetometer, under geological direction, in exploration of the Sudbury nickel district. The writer's experience at Falconbridge has led him to the belief that only through detailed work, and by careful correlation of both geological and geophysical results, can geophysical prospecting methods be applied successfully to mining exploration problems. It is hoped that the basic technique described in the paper will be found to have general application.

As the operation of light railroads is important to the mining industry, the following statistics of the Arizona Southeastern Railroad may be of interest. When the traffic of the Bisbee copper-mines reached 20,000 tons per year the necessity of better transportation than that afforded by eighteen- and twenty-horse and mule teams became imperative on the score of both cheapness and convenience. Before deciding on the construction of a railroad, the Copper Queen Company made a thorough experiment in transportation
