Bachelors Theses
"The work of the chemist and assayer at a pan amalgamation mill is cheifly sic routine work. The work of one day differs, generally, very little from the work of an other day. But occasionally some contingency arises which taxes his ability to the utmost"--page 2.
Contact Plane Concentration, John A. Rogers, George Walter Dean
Contact Plane Concentration, John A. Rogers, George Walter Dean
Bachelors Theses
"Contact plane concentration depends upon the principle that a thin sheet or film of water flowing over a plane surface may be so adjusted that its quantity and velocity are just sufficient to bear away the lighter particles of gangue, leaving behind only the heavier particles of the mineral to be concentrated, adhering by friction to the plane, the concentrates being removed by any convenient method. Thus we see it is best adapted to the concentration of minerals having widely differing specific gravities but may be used for the concentration of all ores and minerals with any specific gravity whatsoever"--page …
Hydraulic Separation, Albert Edwin Eardley, John Simpson Cameron
Hydraulic Separation, Albert Edwin Eardley, John Simpson Cameron
Bachelors Theses
"Before beginning a discussion of the various experiments performed with the hydraulic separators in the Laboratory of the S. of M., a brief statement as to the principle upon which their working depends, and their functions in the dressing of ores should be given. The crude ore when first delivered from the mine is usually not of sufficient richness to be economically handled by the smelters; it therefore becomes necessary to eliminate as far as possible that part of the ore which is of no material value, and among the various forms of apparatus now in use for this purpose …

At present the only fire protection the business part of town has, is derived from one large cistern placed on the principal street, while the protection for the residence portion, is derived …
