Treatment Of Joplin Tailings, Preston King Horner Jan 1906

Treatment Of Joplin Tailings, Preston King Horner

Bachelors Theses

"In the Joplin region are enormous piles of tailings, that for waste material, run very high in blende. This is due mainly to the temporary character of the mills which are built with more regard to low first cost than to receiving a high percentage of extraction. As a result we have some piles of tailings containing from 200,000 to 300,000 tons of materials that will average from about 2 to 3% zinc, and all crushed so as to pass through about #2 mesh"--Page 1.

The Manufacture Of Coal Gas In St. Louis, Albert Dyke Wilson Jan 1905

The Manufacture Of Coal Gas In St. Louis, Albert Dyke Wilson

Professional Degree Theses

"Coal gas is made by heating Bituminous Coal in closed fire-clay retorts, for four or five hours, at a bright red heat. An exhauster pulls the gas from the retort as fast as it is generated in order to prevent, as much as possible, the breaking up of the hydrocarbons into carbon and hydrogen by the hot molls of the retort"--page 2.


The Reaction Velocity Of Ethylene And Iodine, Herbert Arno Roesler Jan 1905

The Reaction Velocity Of Ethylene And Iodine, Herbert Arno Roesler

Professional Degree Theses

"The constituents of coal or enriched water gas which give it value as a light producer are known collectively as "illuminants". They consist essentially of ethylene and propylene and in the analysis are determined by means of fuming sulphuric acid. This method of determination is very unsatisfactory as it is impossible to ascertain the relative percentages of the two gases, only the total being found. A series of experiments were made, for the purpose of finding a reagent that could be used for separating the members of the illuminating group and while thus engaged, a solution of iodine in potassium …

Analysis And Metallurgical Treatment Of Copper Ores From Ajo Basin, Arizona, Harry Carleton Chamberlain Jan 1905

Analysis And Metallurgical Treatment Of Copper Ores From Ajo Basin, Arizona, Harry Carleton Chamberlain

Bachelors Theses

"The purpose in mind, in writing this thesis, is to select the most economical method of treating the ores found in the Ajo Basin. The ore on the surface, and to a depth of thirty to forty feet, is almost exclusively carbonates in a silicious six gangue. Immediately underlying the carbonate ore comes the sulphide ore in its natural state, lying below any action of the elements, and is in various forms. The sulphide has been found in every shaft to its lowest depth"--page 1.

The Lignite Coal Of North Dakota, Clyde Mckeever Laizure, James Knight Christopher Jan 1905

The Lignite Coal Of North Dakota, Clyde Mckeever Laizure, James Knight Christopher

Bachelors Theses

"Owing to the great abundance of coal, both anthracite and bituminous, in the United States, no state need suffer for the lack of it, but to those states like North Dakota, situated in the great plains region and at great distances from such coal supplies, the price of these coals makes them almost luxuries. In the last few years however, the development of the lignite coal within the state of North Dakota has shown an abundance of fuel for many years to come, which, though at one time considered "A poor excuse for poor wood," now competes successfully with any …

An Investigation Of The Chemical And Metallurgical Treatment Of A Cobalt And Nickel Ore, James Watts Caples Jan 1905

An Investigation Of The Chemical And Metallurgical Treatment Of A Cobalt And Nickel Ore, James Watts Caples

Bachelors Theses

"The ore, coming from a district located one hundred and fifteen miles from the nearest railroad point, in a mountainous country, barren of coal, and where freight rates were enormous; demanded a method of treatment not now in general use upon this class of ores, and one that would require as little freight haulage either way, as possible. With these object in view, the following work was done, after reading all the data obtainable upon the subject as found in the school library"--Introductory, page 1.

Bachelors Theses

"In view of the growing importance of the cyanide process and in that it seems destined to take an important place in the metallurgical treatment of gold and silver ores, the following tests have been taken as a thesis: It was intended at the onset to deal with varied ores and corroborate or establish any relation existing between such cyanicides as Cu, Bi, Sb, Mn, As, Fe, S and Te and the amount of cyanide consumed. This object however, was not fully realized owing to the fact that a large amount of work was done on ores No's. 1, 2, …

The Absorption Of Matte By Sodium Carbonate, And The Effect On The Fire-Assay, Leo J. Foster, John Thomas Keenan Jan 1904

The Absorption Of Matte By Sodium Carbonate, And The Effect On The Fire-Assay, Leo J. Foster, John Thomas Keenan

Bachelors Theses

"It has been observed in practical and experimental work, that there is a variation in the fire assay values of some sulphide ores and mattes by the metallic iron method due to the proportions of the reagents used. This is shown in a particular manner in the use of sodium carbonate. there is also a corresponding variation in the amount of matte separating out in the assay by this method. It is a well known fact that mattes absorb both gold and silver and this has always been regarded as one objection to the assay of the ores of those …


Notes On Phelps County Ores, John Morgan Price, Evan Edmund Price Jan 1904

Notes On Phelps County Ores, John Morgan Price, Evan Edmund Price

Bachelors Theses

"In conclusion, summing up the evidence both field and theoretic, there are very good reasons for believing that the deposits which have been worked and are not being worked are not the only deposits of magnitude in the county but by intelligent prospecting along lines already suggested other large and valuable deposits will be found. From the manner of the ores concentration it is not to be expected that every deposit will have a surface outcrop neither is it probable that every depression will be found to contain an ore deposit but when these phenomena occur, together with other evidences …

The Design Of A Water Supply System For The Missouri School Of Mines, Lewis Alfred Delano, John Turner Rice Jan 1904

The Design Of A Water Supply System For The Missouri School Of Mines, Lewis Alfred Delano, John Turner Rice

Bachelors Theses

"The supply of water for use in the School of Mines has long been a subject of study and discussion. The school is located in the north end of Rolla, being on the highest part of the Ozark uplift and having an elevation of 1140 ft. above the sea This makes it very difficult for a reservoir of sufficient capacity to be located for the water supply of the city of Rolla. Therefore the city has no water work and it becomes necessary for the School of Mines to furnish its own water"--page 1.

Studies In Ore Deposition, Cyrus Edward Minor Jan 1904

Studies In Ore Deposition, Cyrus Edward Minor

Bachelors Theses

"The artificial preparation of natural occuring sic minerals is a matter of great interest and importance in the study of the conditions and processes involved in the deposition of ores. In a large number of instances, no difficulty is experienced in the laboratory manufacture, e.g. of calcite, arragonite, dolomite, strontianite, gypsum and other similar minerals may be obtained by crystallization out of molten masses, e.g. graphite, diamond, corrundum sic , etc.: still other cases in which special processes have been employed, have led to the production of compounds in the form in which they occur naturally. the facts so accumulated …
