Oil Shales In Montana, Richard N. Miller
Oil Shales In Montana, Richard N. Miller
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Montana has long been known to have very large resources of coal and oil, and undetermined amounts of oil shale. The reserves of coal and oil have been proven, in part, and have been produced commercially, but not much is known about the extent and apparent value of the oil shales. Under present .conditions, and according to standards set by the United States Bureau of Mines, the shales are not of commercial value. They are, however, a potentially valuable mineral resource, and portions of them will possibly be utilized, although not in the near future.

The Sedimentary Petrography Of The Oil And Gas Producing Horizons In Montana, Patrick J. Donahue
The Sedimentary Petrography Of The Oil And Gas Producing Horizons In Montana, Patrick J. Donahue
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Montana is an excellent oil province, as oil and gas are produced from a wider range of beds in the geologic section than in any other district in the United States. (1,864) Commercial fields have been developed in Ordovician, Devonian, Mississippian, Pennsylvanian, Jurassic, Lower Cretaceous, and Upper Cretaceous. It is believed that by describing the physical characteristics of the producing horizons, and by placing this information in one compact volume, a better understanding of oil and gas occurrence in Montana may be gained.

Flotation Of Huebnerite, Henry Albright
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The development of suitable beneficiation processes for treating domestic low-grade tungsten ores is a problem now facing the mineral industry. While we are now consuming more tungsten than normally because of the defense program, we are no longer able to import ores from the world's principal source, China. The problem then, is to increase our domestic production so as to acquire a greater degree of self-sufficiency.

The Birdie Mine Tungsten Deposit Butte Mining District, Silverbow County, Montana, Bernard A. Fahm
The Birdie Mine Tungsten Deposit Butte Mining District, Silverbow County, Montana, Bernard A. Fahm
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The importance of tungsten has encouraged the search for minerals of this metal, and consequently new deposits have been discovered, and known deposits have been re-examined. Western Montana has rather widespread deposits if low-grade types are also considered. Many deposits were known long ago, but abandoned because the use of tungsten was still in its beginning stage and therefore little attention was given to this type of mineral.

The Effect Of Ferric Iron Upon The Current Efficiency And The Deposition Of Copper In The Electrowinning Of Copper From Copper Sulphate Solutions, James L. Owings
The Effect Of Ferric Iron Upon The Current Efficiency And The Deposition Of Copper In The Electrowinning Of Copper From Copper Sulphate Solutions, James L. Owings
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In the hydrometallurgy of copper, probably the most widely used method for the precipitation of copper is by electrolysis using insoluble anodes. The process is similar in many respects to the electrolytic refining of copper; one of the main differences is the use of insoluble anodes in electrowinning as compared to the use of impure copper anodes in electrorefining. Impurities, however, are common to both processes. The nature of these impurities differ and the problem of purifying the electrolyte is also different.
The Immersion Coating Of Indium Upon Magnesium From Sulphate Solutions Containing Flourides, John J. Harrington

An Attempted Determination Of The Approximate Chemical Composition Of The Livingston Volcanics By The Fused Bead Technique, Robert D. Geach
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Many fine-grained igneous rocks, basaltic and felsitic in character, are difficult to classify. In numerous cases, it is impossible to classify these types of rocks by quick methods of identification. It was hoped at the beginning of this study that refractive indices of glasses formed by quick artificial fusion of samples from selected suites of igneous rocks would show a close correlation in chemical composition.
Dispersing Agents In The Pipette Method Of Soil Analysis, Eugene W. Price
Dispersing Agents In The Pipette Method Of Soil Analysis, Eugene W. Price
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
For many years the study of sediments has been a major problem in the field of geology. Especially is this true of the branch of sedimentology known as grain-size distribution. Throughout the years many classical experiments have been performed and procedures evolved from them, all with the purpose of a better and easier determination of the grain-size distribution of fine sediments, particularly the clays.

Microfauna Of The Colorado Shale In The Sunburst Dome Area, Montana, Merle W. Emmert
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
It has been hoped that a micropaleontological study of the shales of the Upper Cretaceous Colorado Group in northern Montana would reveal certain faunal zones which would serve as markers in an otherwise drab, undifferentiated, 1800 feet of grey, fissile shale. This paper presents the results of a study of the microfauna in certain samples from this shale in the Sunburst Dome area north of Shelby, Montana.
The Elkhorn Mine Of Jefferson County, Montana, David D. Walker
The Elkhorn Mine Of Jefferson County, Montana, David D. Walker
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In 1901, after yielding metals valued in excess of five million dollars, it was considered worked out. Since that time the mine has passed through the hands of several owners, none of whom have failed to realize a profit from it. Although at no time since its zenith did it ever regain its once great production, it did provide a livelihood for those who worked it. Now with the American Smelting and Refining Company interested in it, perhaps it will once again become an important producer.
Sulphidizing Of Cerussite, Emil A. Kovacevich
Sulphidizing Of Cerussite, Emil A. Kovacevich
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The oxide minerals, such as cerussite, are not as amenable to flotation as the sulphide minerals. Sulphidization is the usual means used today to increase the recovery of an oxide flotation; however, sulphidization under the most advantageous conditions does not yield very satisfactory recoveries.
Faunal Studies Of The Lower Jefferson Limestones, James L. Eymann
Faunal Studies Of The Lower Jefferson Limestones, James L. Eymann
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The exact geologic age of the Jefferson limestone in Montana has not been definitely determined, other than it is probably of upper, but possibly in part of middle Devonian age. Although not of immediate or apparent economic importance, the determination of the exact age of the Jefferson limestone may be of much value in connection with the discoveries of large quantities of oil in Devonian strata in the northern Great Plains and, in particular, with the extensive deep drilling in northeastern Montana which is anticipated during the summer of 1951.

A Mineralogical Investigation Of Some Montana Hydrobiotites, John W. Baker
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Vermiculite is one of the most recent important nonmetallic minerals to be exploited for use in the industrial world. For this reason, the fund of knowledge relating to this mineral is rather limited. This paper represents the results of laboratory studies that were undertaken to contribute data to this fund of knowledge.
Differential Thermal Analysis Of Some Carbonate Minerals, Paul L. Vandeveer
Differential Thermal Analysis Of Some Carbonate Minerals, Paul L. Vandeveer
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Thermal analysis is a relatively new method of determining the general composition of certain mineral substances. As is demonstrated by much of the literature previously written, clays and carbonates are especially adaptable to this method. The full importance of the method is not as yet realized, but it is rapidly approaching that point.
The Gallium-Indium Constitutional Diagram, Richard E. Gaffney
The Gallium-Indium Constitutional Diagram, Richard E. Gaffney
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Because of the discrepancy as to whether there is solid solubility in the gallium-indium system, and the fact that no alloys with less than 1% indium were ever investigated; the possibility of solid solubility in either or both ends of the diagram was not overlooked. According to Hume-Rothery, two alloys with the same relative positions on the Periodic Chart should have about the same alloying habits.
