Insoluble Residues Of The Lower Mississippian Limestones Of The Madison Group, Fred G. Lines May 1942

Insoluble Residues Of The Lower Mississippian Limestones Of The Madison Group, Fred G. Lines

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The correlation of non-fossiliferous drill samples is one of the difficult problems that is en­countered in sub-surface stratigraphy. In order to truly correlate a formation, it must have some dis tinctive features and have an areal persistence of these features. These requirements are probably met best by limestone.

Chromite Deposits Near Red Lodge And Silver Star, Montana, Edmond F. Smigel Apr 1942

Chromite Deposits Near Red Lodge And Silver Star, Montana, Edmond F. Smigel

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The Red Lodge and Silver Star chromite deposits of Montana have stimulated much interest during periods of war. The Red Lodge deposit is 25 miles southwest of Red Lodge which is also the nearest railroad point. Several workings are scattered throughout the area, exposing lense-like ore bodies averaging 33% chrome oxide. Silver Star is a much smaller deposit 5 miles west of Silver Star, Montana, which is its nearest rail­road point. Lenses of chromite are exposed by pits and trench­es, which average approximately 36% chromic oxide.

Determination Of Alkalies In Portland Cement By The Dropping Mercury Electrode Method, William Joseph Smothers Jan 1942

Determination Of Alkalies In Portland Cement By The Dropping Mercury Electrode Method, William Joseph Smothers

Masters Theses

"In many industries whose product or products contain alkalies, the determination of the amount present is very essential from a control standpoint. This present investigation is concerned with a method for quantitative determination of sodium and potassium as accurately as by customary chemical methods and which will require less time in its operation. Portland cement is a product in which the amount of sodium and potassium present is of prime importance. This importance of the alkalies upon the behavior of concrete was first noticed in California where, after numerous tests, it was definitely shown that with certain aggregates there was …

A High Alumina Concentrate From Low-Grade Burley Clay, Leonard Stearns Jan 1942

A High Alumina Concentrate From Low-Grade Burley Clay, Leonard Stearns

Masters Theses

"The principal source of raw material for the production of high-alumina refractories are the diaspore clays of Missouri. These highly refractory clays contain a large percentage of the mineral, diaspore, a monohydrate of alumina whose theoretical chemical formula is Al₂O₃ʺH₂O. The clays as mined contain from 85 to 65 per cent alumina...Diaspore clays as now found fill sandstone-lined "sink holes" or depressions in the parts of the district underlain by rocks of the Pennsylvanian Age. They are rough open-textured clays, grey or buff in color usually, containing the mineral diaspore in the form of shot-like particles or "oolites." There are …

Some Investigations On Quantitative Measurement Of Amalgamation, Charles Moore Jun 1941

Some Investigations On Quantitative Measurement Of Amalgamation, Charles Moore

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Amalgamation is a process in which precious metals are collected by mercury. The exact way in which the mercury holds the other metals is not positively known. It is proba­ble that a series of intermetallic compounds form. Very little work has been done so far on the theory of amalgama­tion.

Some Chromite Deposits In Madison County, Montana, Russell H. W. Chadwick May 1941

Some Chromite Deposits In Madison County, Montana, Russell H. W. Chadwick

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Chromite occurs in Madison County, Montana, in two areas, one three miles southwest of Silver Star, the other five miles southeast of Sheridan. The ore bodies are small, lenticular masses surrounded by metamorphosed sedimentary rocks of the pre-Cambrian Cherry Creek series. The ore was deposited from the hydrothermal solutions which serpentinized the surrounding metamorphic host rocks.

The Extraction Of Chromate Salts From Montana Chromite, Server Tasdemiroglu May 1941

The Extraction Of Chromate Salts From Montana Chromite, Server Tasdemiroglu

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In this thesis I have tried to determine the suit­able temperature, time and the amount of soda ash and lime needed for the calcining process. The leaching and purification tests were studied experimentally. The earlier process for making chromate from chromite was not the same as is used today. There­fore I have found it useful to put into this thesis the newest method for making chromate salts and their important uses.

Gas Analysis By Absorption, Albert D. Mcmahon May 1941

Gas Analysis By Absorption, Albert D. Mcmahon

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

There is practically only one method of gas analysis. This was worked out many years ago by Bunsen, Hempel, and Winkler and consists in the successive absorption with different chemicals of the various constituents of the gas. The only improvement to this method is the oxidation and combustion of different components of a mixture followed by absorption.

Pegmatites In Southwestern Montana, Ora Rostad May 1941

Pegmatites In Southwestern Montana, Ora Rostad

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Little has been written on pegmatites in Montana except in conjunction with reports on mining districts. This subject was chosen as a senior thesis to see what facts could be ascertained re­garding pegmatites alone, and an attempt has been made by the writer to assemble all written material on pegmatites in southwestern Montana, and to study specimens from those that could be reached or from which specimens were available.
