Operation Characteristics Of The Series System For Electrolytic Refining Of Copper, John T. O'Donnell May 1949

Operation Characteristics Of The Series System For Electrolytic Refining Of Copper, John T. O'Donnell

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In the copper electrolytic refining operation, two main objectives are desired: the first is the production of a metal of desired chemical composition and physical characteristics, and the second is the recovery of the valuable by-products.


Daibase Sill Comanche County, Oklahoma, Jean A. Hardesty May 1949

Daibase Sill Comanche County, Oklahoma, Jean A. Hardesty

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The mechanics of intrusion and the processes involved are becoming of more and more interest to con­temporary geologists, because most of our mineral deposits are associated with igneous intrusions, and unknown-outcropping deposits are thought to be a thing of the past. If, by studying these pro­cesses, we could understand why some igneous masses are barren, while others of similar composition carry economic mineral deposits, geological prospecting for hidden mineral concentration would see a new era.


The Livingston Formation Of The South Boulder Area, Nelson A. Jones May 1949

The Livingston Formation Of The South Boulder Area, Nelson A. Jones

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The Livingston formation is a thick succession of late Cretaceous lava flows, tuffs, and bedded water-laid volcanic detritus 200 miles long and 100 miles wide lying along the eastern margin of the Rocky Mountains in western Montana from Augusta to Yellowstone Park. It differs markedly within short distances in lithologic character and sequences, and the total thickness may exceed one mile in some places.


Comparative Studies Of Oklahoma And Missouri Granites With Special Attention To The Heavy Minerals Of The Oklahoma Granites, Russell B. Maurer May 1949

Comparative Studies Of Oklahoma And Missouri Granites With Special Attention To The Heavy Minerals Of The Oklahoma Granites, Russell B. Maurer

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

When examined petrographically the granites of Oklahoma show a marked similarity to the granites of South­eastern Missouri. The same heavy accessory mineral suites are present in the granites of both regions and include: fluorite, zircon, apatite, titanite and epidote. This similarity was further shown by the actual correlation of the heavy mineral suites by types, these types being, based on the heavy mineral distributions of the Missouri Granites.


Benefication Of An Oxidized Lead Ore From The Franklin Mine Lewis And Clark County, Jack D. Mclenegan May 1949

Benefication Of An Oxidized Lead Ore From The Franklin Mine Lewis And Clark County, Jack D. Mclenegan

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

This thesis is concerned with the beneficiation of an oxidized lead ore. Emphasis was placed upon concentration by flotation rather than by gravity methods, although some investigation was made with the Wilfley shaking table. The concentration of lead minerals received most consideration in the problem, but wherever possible attempts were made to increase the silver and gold concentration along with the lead.


An Isopach Map And Discussion Of Triassic Strata In Southern Montana And Wyoming, Robert G. Thompson May 1949

An Isopach Map And Discussion Of Triassic Strata In Southern Montana And Wyoming, Robert G. Thompson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Oil and gas have been found in the Triassic strata of Wyoming. Although the Triassic has not as yet proven to be a large producing horizon it is very probable that ad­ditional oil will be found in Triassic strata in the future, and it is one of the goals at which oil well drillers aim their tools.


Foraminifera From The Colorado Shale Of North-Central Montana, Higbee G. Williams, David P. Wilson May 1949

Foraminifera From The Colorado Shale Of North-Central Montana, Higbee G. Williams, David P. Wilson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The use of foraminifera in the determination of geologic age, and in the correlation of strata, is one of the most important techniques in oil field stratigraphic studies. The petroleum industry in many regions relies on these microscopic life forms to determine the positions of oil-bearing horizons and to determine the tops of beds. In northern Montana the Colorado group of strata, a series of about 2,000 feet of dense, dark similar shales, is known to contain foraminifers.


A Study Of The Street Plan Of Logan, Utah, Paul Walter Gottschalk May 1949

A Study Of The Street Plan Of Logan, Utah, Paul Walter Gottschalk

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

It is the purpose of this thesis to make a study of the street plan for the City of Logan, Utah, to attempt to analyze its desirable and undesirable features as they affect the community, and to prepare a solution to eliminate, insofar as possible, the undesirable features and preserving the desirable.


Design Of Shallow Wells For Drainage By Pumping, Lewiston Area, Utah, Gregory L. Pearson May 1949

Design Of Shallow Wells For Drainage By Pumping, Lewiston Area, Utah, Gregory L. Pearson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

After approximately 25 years of using open drains in the Lewiston Area, Utah, the water table has not changed appreciably from what it was in 1921 when Hart and Adams (4) conducted their drainage investigations. It is still only about three feet below the ground surface. This is not effective drainage, meeting neither of the two primary drainage requirements of an arid or semi-arid agricultural region, namely; preventing an accumulation of excessive water within the depth of soil required for optimum growth of plant root systems, and maintaining the water table at a depth below the ground surface greater than …

Investigation Of Field And Laboratory Methods For Evaluating Subgrade Support In The Design Of Highway Flexible Pavements, Robert F. Baker, William B. Drake Mar 1949

Investigation Of Field And Laboratory Methods For Evaluating Subgrade Support In The Design Of Highway Flexible Pavements, Robert F. Baker, William B. Drake

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Four different methods of evaluating subgrade support under flexible pavements were studied: (1) Field CBR; (2) North Dakota Cone; (3) Bearing Plates; and (4) Laboratory CBR.

Approximately 435 miles of flexible pavements in Kentucky were represented. The roads were selected so as to give a wide range in conditions of traffic, soil areas, and design. A total of 185 locations were investigated, and 338 cone tests, 291 field CBR's, and 117 series of plate tests were conducted. There were 178 subgrade samples for which the laboratory CBR test was conducted. Undisturbed samples for future triaxial tests were obtained at 21 …

An Examination Of Equipment For Preventing Segregation In Storage Of Coarse Aggregates, S. T. Collier Feb 1949

An Examination Of Equipment For Preventing Segregation In Storage Of Coarse Aggregates, S. T. Collier

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This is a report of an investigation of a device developed for the purpose of reducing to a minimum the segregation of coarse aggregates during delivery from chutes or conveyors to bins and other storage or transportation facilities.

Producers and consumers are always confronted, more or less, with segregation of materials, but methods toward its elimination have been moderately successful at best. As a matter of fact, the most successful of those methods have been those that required placement and distribution of loads in bins, stockpiles, barges, and the like, rather than the use of mechanical devices for prevention of …
