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

E. G. SPILSBURY, New York, N. Y.-I would like to ask Mr. Wemple what is the total loss in redistillation; not merely the weight of the lead removed, but also the loss clue to rehandling of a large amount of blue powder, and that clue to the final remelting in the tank furnace? LELAND E. WEMPLE.-The loss of zinc by redistillation, on the first operation, is approximately 5 per cent. This loss does not cover the lead

RICHARD ore mine of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Corp. is an underground magnetite operation located in northern New Jersey approximately four miles northeast of the town of Dover, and 40 miles west of New York City. The mine is situated on the southeastern flank of one of the many gneissic ridges having a northeast-southwest trend

J. S. UNGER,* Pittsburgh, Pa. (written discussion ?).-There is a common impression in the minds of many that forging or rolling apiece of steel not alone increases the strength but makes the steel more dense, or causes it to become heavier. I believe it is the author's aim in the paper to show that cast steel is almost as dense as forged steel. The average results obtained by him show very little difference in density, being

By authority of the Secretary of War, and in response to frequent requests, the following suggested list of reading is issued by the War Department for the information of civilian engineers desiring to inform themselves on military subjects: These references have been selected, first, with a view to giving to engineers unfamiliar with the art of war a general survey of that sub-

Air Leakage in underground mines is the most common cause of inefficient distribution of ventilating air. Depending upon various factors, more than one half of the fresh air entering a mine short-circuits to the return airways before reaching the working faces. Consequently, large leakages create an additional demand for increased intake air, which substantially affects the efficiency of a mine system. This paper deals with the identification of the physical variables of air leakages and offers an overview of the methods of measuring leakage.

This presentation will examine the role commercial banks will be expected to assume in financing international minerals projects, including a discussion of various financing techniques such as project loans, production loans, and production payments. A discussion of the necessity for completion guarantees, finalized sales contracts, reserve evaluations, management contracts, and marketing undertakings in conjunction with financing availability are also included.

The principal washing problems in preparing coal for the synthetic fuel industry may be stated as: (1) ash removal for the Bergius process; and (2) sulphur removal for the Fischer-Tropsch process. A study is made of the effect of ash on oil losses during the elimination of the nonliquefiable portions of the coal in the hydrogenation process. The oil loss increases with ash content and results in increased consumption of coal, hydrogen, and power.

At the planning stage for this plant it was scheduled that the plant operate at a low energy consumption. After start up in 1973 it was established that outcome was even better than the forecast. In view of the 1977 ore market it was decided to operate the plant at half capacity. This initiated efforts to reoptimize the process in order to hold back expected increase in energy consumption. The result from this work proves that a detailed study and tuning of the process can not only avoid expected increase, but also reduce specific energy consumption.

Brushy Creek mine is located near the center of a linear, 40 mile long belt of mineralization that extends south from St. Joe Minerals Corp.'s Viburnum division. The mine area includes a segment of 5.4 miles long of this new mining region along which eight mines are presently operating. The geology of the area is relatively simple; the rock formations have not been disturbed through folding or extensive faulting.
