Leaching As A Method Of Mining Uranium, Rob L. Kane
Leaching As A Method Of Mining Uranium, Rob L. Kane
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
This paper presents a new method of recovering uranium ores from the earth. By sinking drill holes into ore bearing beds, aqueous leach solutions can be circulated through the ores. Solutions of sulfuric acid, potassium carbonate and many other available reagents will put the ions of uranium and vanadium into the liquid leach. The pregnant solutions are then pumped to the surface so a recovery of the valuable portion of the ore can be made.
Shaft Sinking Investigation, Harold Foss
Shaft Sinking Investigation, Harold Foss
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
This paper, investigating shaft mucking, has been prepared as a partial requirement for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Mining Engineering. In the following material I have attempted to collect and compile all available information on mechanical shaft mucking, to compare and contrast the different methods and to trace their development through to the latest innovation. This development of the investigation is purposely being used to lead to a new method which will be discussed hypothetically as a conclusion to the paper.
An Investigation Of A Dustless System Of Dry Drilling, Norman J. Hardt
An Investigation Of A Dustless System Of Dry Drilling, Norman J. Hardt
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
For many years the problem of removing dust particles while drilling dry has confronted the mining and construction industries. In areas where water is not available, rock drilling is still being done under hazardous dust conditions. It was in an attempt to find a partial solution to this problem that the material contained in this report was compounded.
Application Of The Rotary Principle To Underground Mucking, Walter J. Smit
Application Of The Rotary Principle To Underground Mucking, Walter J. Smit
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Since the beginning of man's utilization of rocks and minerals, he has felt a need for an efficient mover of these materials. Thus, he turned from the sole use of his hands to the development of the shovel, and through the other hand tools-- the hoes, and the fork, and the rake-- he finally came to the manufacture of the heavy, more efficient, large-scale rock movers-- the muckers, and the scrapers, and duckbill loaders.
