A Comparison Of The Silver Losses Due To Cupellation Using Different Kinds Of Cupels, Martin Harmon Thornberry Jan 1912

A Comparison Of The Silver Losses Due To Cupellation Using Different Kinds Of Cupels, Martin Harmon Thornberry

Bachelors Theses

"In this Thesis my object has been to ascertain the silver losses in cupellation with different kinds of cupel material, thereby determining the effeciency sic of the materials in the four kinds of cupels used. When I began the work I though the losses would be about equal in all cupels, but was surprised to find such a great difference. I refer the reader to the curves to see what really happened"--page i.


Efficiency Of The Missouri School Of Mines Power Plant And Cost Of Operation, Cairy C. Conover, John Richardson Kenney, Louie Lincoln Coover Jan 1912

Efficiency Of The Missouri School Of Mines Power Plant And Cost Of Operation, Cairy C. Conover, John Richardson Kenney, Louie Lincoln Coover

Bachelors Theses

"These tests were made for the purpose of getting the efficiency of the electric power plant as it was being run and the cost of operating it. Tests were first made on the boilers separately. The load at the time of the test was too heavy for one boiler and too light for tow, part of the steam being used for heating the buildings and for the air-compressor. This made it so that no combined test of the boilers and generating couple could be made until the warm weather came and the laboratories using compressed air were closed, which was …

Coal Washing, Mark S. Sheffer, Thomas Andrew Stroup Jan 1912

Coal Washing, Mark S. Sheffer, Thomas Andrew Stroup

Bachelors Theses

"The rapid growth of the coal washing industry in the United States during the past few years is characteristic of the general tendency toward more economical and efficient utilization of the natural resources, the washing of coal being a process of enrichment of one of the most necessary and widely used raw products. This industry is of great importance to the men engaged in mining of coal as well as to the community at large, and since it makes possible the use of originally poor coals, it conserves one of the natural resources absolutely essential for the progress of the …

A Process For The Separation Of Barite And Sphalerite, Cairy C. Conover, Edwin Robinson Morris Jan 1912

A Process For The Separation Of Barite And Sphalerite, Cairy C. Conover, Edwin Robinson Morris

Bachelors Theses

"The present price of zinc has stimulated a greater interest in Sphalerite Barite separations than has been manifested for some time. A great many processes have been worked on and have failed for many reasons, the main one being that the physical characteristics of the ore varied so much. The process that is successful must be independent of these variations. The following process is one that depends on a chemical phenomenon and is adapted to any sphalerite-barite separation. This series of experiments was performed by the authors at the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, Rolla, Mo. and was embodied …

Roasting Pyrite For Magnetism With Minimum Sulphur Volatilization, Dale Irwin Hayes, Clark Watson Wright Jan 1912

Roasting Pyrite For Magnetism With Minimum Sulphur Volatilization, Dale Irwin Hayes, Clark Watson Wright

Bachelors Theses

"In Wisconsin and other zinc mining districts the blende is frequently found associated with pyrite and marcasite. In the Wisconsin district, especially, the marcasite content of the mine-run ore is high being frequently equal to and in many cases greater than the sphalerite content. At time the marcasite and sphalerite together constitute as much as 25 or 30% of the min-run ore. The characteristic milling treatment of this ore is; first, hand-picking, and then over grizzlies, tromells, rougher and cleaner jigs. Owing to the fact that marcasite and sphalerite differ but slightly in specific gravity the jig concentrate obtained is …


Some Assay Problems, James Howard Chase Jan 1912

Checker Board Drainage Due To Eroded Dikes, Julian Adolph Hielscher

Bachelors Theses

"The conclusions here drawn are the results of observations made during the past ten summers spent in this region while camping, fishing, and hunting; at first, with the native game wardens and fire rangers; later on independently or in company with some of the many tourists who annually visit this delightful region. In this manner it has been possible to cross and re-cross this territory in almost every direction. The highways into this wilderness are the streams and lakes and the only method of travel is by canoe, though short excursions can be made over land by following the paths …

A Study Of The Precipitation Of Iron Di-Sulphide And Its Relation To Certain Types Of Deposits, Vachel Harry Mcnutt Jan 1912

A Study Of The Precipitation Of Iron Di-Sulphide And Its Relation To Certain Types Of Deposits, Vachel Harry Mcnutt

Masters Theses

"Very few of the interesting points bearing upon the formation of iron di-sulphide will be treated in this paper. The laboratory tests made are considered to have been sufficiently thorough to substantiate the ideas set forth so that exhaustive tests were not necessary. While the field evidence was collected largely in the Joplin district of Missouri, the conclusions are sufficiently generalized to be applicable to any district in which pyrite and marcasite have been derived from cold solutions"--page 2.


Fluorspar Mining In Kentucky, Walter Coffran Richards Jan 1911

Fluorspar Mining In Kentucky, Walter Coffran Richards

Professional Degree Theses

"The mining of fluorite, or fluorspar in Western Kentucky is one of the chief mineral industries of that State. As the number of mines and prospects is very great, a thorough treatise on the geology, mines, and methods of this district would make a large volume. This thesis will deal, however, with only a small part of the district, in which the mine operated by the author is located. Before going into detail, it might be well to mention a few points relative to the fluorspar industry in general. To the average person, fluorspar seems to be unknown. In fact, …


Underground Records, Robert Hardy Bedford Jan 1911

Underground Records, Robert Hardy Bedford

Professional Degree Theses

"It may save confusion to now state that "Underground Records" is used in sense of information regarding labor, supplies, and output of the underground proper, in distinction from "Costs" - a term here used for results of the sum total of all records after they have passed through the hands of the book keeping-accounting staff. The essentials of underground records are more or less carefully collected by all mining companies of any importance, but are too often, before they have come under the eyes of the mine management in intelligible or suggestive form, obscured by the addition of a "witches …


Method Of Obtaining And Preserving Data On Churn Drill Holes, Ira Lee Wright Jan 1911

Method Of Obtaining And Preserving Data On Churn Drill Holes, Ira Lee Wright

Professional Degree Theses

"In prospecting for copper by means of churn drills it is absolutely essential that accurate methods of sampling be employed if any dependence is to be put upon the results. Of equal importance is the recording and preservation of data regarding each hole after results are obtained. This applies to such information as location and elevation of holes, depth, water level, geology etc as well as to the assays of the samples. Future underground development will be guided by information obtained from the drill holes and any incompleteness in the records will cause uncertainty in the development of the mine. …

Ratio Of The Thermal And Electrical Conductivities For Gas Carbon, Oscar Alan Randolph Jan 1911

Ratio Of The Thermal And Electrical Conductivities For Gas Carbon, Oscar Alan Randolph

Bachelors Theses

"The method of F. Kohlrausch for the determination of the ratio of the heat conductivity upside down gamma , to the electrical conductivity k of a substance is of practical value as well as of theoretical interest. Of practical value because there may be obtained from it - with much great ease than by direct methods - the heat conductivity which has immediate applications, not only to the design and construction of furnaces, but to various other matters of such import; of theoretical interest to the physicist, because of the Wiedmann-Franz and its consequent relation to the electron theory; to …
