Flotation Of A Complex Sulphide Ore Containing Tetrahedrite, James C. O'Dea, Lorimer W. Hoar Jun 1943

Flotation Of A Complex Sulphide Ore Containing Tetrahedrite, James C. O'Dea, Lorimer W. Hoar

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The ore investigated in this thesis is a zinc-copper-lead ore. Microscopic analysis of this complex sulphide ore showed it to contain pyrite, sphalerite, arsenopyrite, galena, chalcopyrite, tetrahedrite, and covellite, with quartz as the gangue constituent.


The Electrodeposition Of Chromium From Trivalent Salt Solutions, Bahri Ersoz May 1943

The Electrodeposition Of Chromium From Trivalent Salt Solutions, Bahri Ersoz

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The enormous number of previous experiments and researches for the improvement of the commercial chromic acid bath, did not succeed even in the partial elimination of any one of the disadvantages of chromic acid bath. This led the author to believe that the poor performance is an inherent quality of the chromic acid bath, and is due to the fact that the deposition occurs from the higher state of oxidation.


Bright Electroplating Of Copper In The Acid Bath, Elwood K. Jensen May 1943

Bright Electroplating Of Copper In The Acid Bath, Elwood K. Jensen

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Plating of various objects with mirror-like surfaces of chromium, nickel, and other metals has expanded considerably during the past decade, and now ranks as an important enterprise, particularly with respect to the automotive industry.


The Effect Of Boron On The Hardenability Of Steel, William J. Foy May 1943

The Effect Of Boron On The Hardenability Of Steel, William J. Foy

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Many attempts have been made to improve iron and steel and their alloys by the addition of boron. The re­sults obtained were not encouraging for the reason that the amount of boron used, generally from 0.2 to 2.0 per cent is altogether too high. This percentage of boron ren­ders the product hard and brittle and of late the experiments with boron in this connection have been practically abandoned.


An Attempt To Increase The Permeability And Porosity Of The Cut Bank Oil Sand By Treatment With Various Reagents, Donald H. Johnson May 1943

An Attempt To Increase The Permeability And Porosity Of The Cut Bank Oil Sand By Treatment With Various Reagents, Donald H. Johnson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this investigation was to attempt to find some means of increasing the effective porosity and permeabil­ity of the producing sands of the Cut Bank Oil Field, with the hope that thereby the ultimate recovery of petroleum from this field may be increased. Although the percentage increase in production thus effected would undoubtedly be small, it would represent a substantial volume of petroleum in view of the great quantity of oil and gas present in this field.


Geology And Occurence Of Graphite At The Crystal Graphite Mine Near Dillon, Montana, Charles K.W. Hum Hum May 1943

Geology And Occurence Of Graphite At The Crystal Graphite Mine Near Dillon, Montana, Charles K.W. Hum Hum

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The problem to be considered embraces the mineralogy and the mode of formation of a very pure and vein-like deposit of crystalline graphite. This deposit is of more than ordinary interest because in its geological relations and in the character of its graphite it shows many similarities to the famous deposits of Ceylon.


Electrolytic Deposition Of Iron, Irving M. Kenoffel May 1943

Electrolytic Deposition Of Iron, Irving M. Kenoffel

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In this thesis the purpose was to obtain a good iron deposit from a relatively simple bath. The deposit was to be of good nature and low in Carbon content. Also included is a summary of the uses to which electrolytic iron can be put as well as a summary of work done by other researchers in depositing iron electrolytically.


Spectrographic Analysis Of Montana Limestones, Clifford A. Barkell Apr 1943

Spectrographic Analysis Of Montana Limestones, Clifford A. Barkell

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Spectrographic analysis of limestones as a possible method of correlation of geologic formations is an altogether new line of investigation. As far as known the only previous work consists of a few analyses made by Fred Lines in his bachelor thesis work at Montana School of mines in the spring of 1942.


Concentration By Flotation Of A Complex Galena - Sphalerite - Chalcopyrite Ore From The Nine Mile District Near Missoula, Montana, Truxton J. Fisher, John L. Tokich Apr 1943

Concentration By Flotation Of A Complex Galena - Sphalerite - Chalcopyrite Ore From The Nine Mile District Near Missoula, Montana, Truxton J. Fisher, John L. Tokich

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

At the present time ore bodies being mined are becoming more and more complex in mineral association, thus presenting a more difficult problem in their concentration. Lead-zinc sulphide ores are among the more common ores which present such difficulties.


Permeability And Porosity Studies Of The Cut Bank Oil Sand, Wesley Edward Davis Apr 1943

Permeability And Porosity Studies Of The Cut Bank Oil Sand, Wesley Edward Davis

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In studying the Cut Bank field and its numerous wells, it is found that dry holes are surrounded by producing wells, and also that the field as a whole is very irregular; water, oil, and gas zones in many cases following no definite pattern. In some instances, this phenomenon may be due to the lensing and thinning of the producing sands, but it is evident that this is not the only factor. There­fore, the controlling factors must be porosity and permeability.


Coal In Montana, Clifford A. Barkell Apr 1943

Coal In Montana, Clifford A. Barkell

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Coal was first mined in Montana in the year 1880. For the last thirty years the mining of coal in this state has been very important-with few people realizing its value. In the mineral industry, the value of the annual production of coal is exceeded by none of the non-metallics, and only by gold, silver, and copper in the metallics. At the present time the coal production of Montana is valued at about 41000,000.00 annually.
