The geological setting, morphology and physical properties of massive sulfide deposits must be taken into account when designing the underwater systems being currently constructed for mining of this type of marine minerals. Based on more than 20 years experience of hydrothermal mineralization studies in the northern equatorial part of the Mid Atlantic Ridge (MAR) we have provided the following conclusions:

World-wide hikes in the oil price and the prospect of future scar cities of liquid and gaseous fuels have given enhanced status to the South African coal industry. It is thus understandable that the colloquium held at Wit bank on 3rd and 4th October, 1979, and organized jointly by the South African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and the South African Coal Processing Society should have attracted more than 400 delegates.

A series of salicylaldoxime derivatives with alkyl group substitution in the main chain and the side chain were synthesized and evaluated for the flotation of malachite, cerussite and smithsonite. The effect of chain length and the position of the substituent group on the selectivity of separation amongst oxidized copper, lead and zinc minerals are discussed in this paper.

Every construction project has site specific problems that need to be dealt with. These problems may be created by the geology, location, weather, time constraints, etc. Once these problems have been solved their solution often can be transferred to other similar construction sites. The Crazy Horse Memorial project is no exception.

A Foreign Policy To Protect Our Resources AGENCIES are being established in Washington to marshall raw materials and industry to build the machines of war. For the third time in less than a generation we are digging into nature's treasure trove for metals and fuels indispensable for war but equally indispensable to the peace of future generations of Americans.

H. M. HOWE, Bedford Hills, N. Y.-We may clear the matter very easily, at least to a very great extent, if we look at these islands of ferrite that occur in steel castings as simply corresponding to the ferrite ghosts in steel forgings, representing the differentiation that takes place in the solidification off the molten mass. In that solidification you have dendritic crystals forming and in between those dendrites you have con-

As the awareness and concerns on subsidence issues increase, there are clear, challenging and credible community expectations for responsible mining, public safety, optimal resource recovery and effective land use and environmental management, coinciding with a changing and strengthening regulatory environment being implemented by the NSW Government. This paper discusses a number of areas where cultural changes in the mining industry will assist with improved subsidence management to meet the enhanced standard.

Heavy ANFO products made by mixing ANFO (or AN prills) with a relatively small amount of emulsion (typically 15-30 percent) have become very popular in recent years. They are less expensive than straight, sensitized emulsion and maintain the good shooting characteristics of ANFO but have higher bulk strengths. Their use, however, is generally limited to larger diameter, dry boreholes. Smaller diameter, wet-hole quarries have not been able to widely utilize this low cost bulk product.
