A Study Of Metallic Eutectics, Robert P. Corbett

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

All of the metals have definite melting points. When a metal is heated above the melting point, it exists as a liquid. Now if the melt is allowed to cool, it will solidify when a temperature corresponding to the melting point is reached.

However, if one metal is added to another metal, both of which are mutually soluble in the liquid state, a certain effect can be noted. The melt will not solid­ify when the melting point of the pure metal is reached, but will freeze at a lower temperature.

Areal Geology Of The Post-Paleozoic Surface Of The Northwest Plains, William M. Broderick

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Probably most of the area included in this report has been ex­amined to some extent by oil geologists, and most, if not all, of the important domes have been discovered and surveyed thoroughly. In parts of the area, the bedrock is covered by glacial drift or alluvium materi­al, but it is reasonable to believe that no new domal structure will be found. This means that surface examination alone will be insufficient in locating new oil fields, so future prospecting will be dependent, to a great extent, on studies of sub-surface stratigraphy.

A Study Of The Concentration Of A Copper-Zinc Ore., Kenneth L. M. Dodd

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The ore under investigation in this thesis is a copper-zinc ore which came from the state of New Mexico. The exact location is unobtainable. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the most effective means of concentration of the valuable min­erals present in the ore.

The Testing And Concentration Of A Low Grade Copper-Nickel Ore., Laurence T. Eck

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the possi­bility of concentrating a low grade copper-nickel ore, to determine the most effective method of concentration, and to attempt to draw some conclusions to determine whether or not the concentrates produced would be of sufficient high grade to make the recovery of nickel and copper a profit­able enterprise.

The Electrolytic Recovery Of Copper And Zinc From Scrap Brass With Special Reference To Lead-Bearing Brass., Frederick A. Hames

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Several methods have been investigated, with some success, for treating scrap brass to recover copper and zinc, either as pure metals or as salts of the metals. One of the more promising of these methods is electrolysis in sulfate solution for the recovery of pure copper and zinc.

Electrolysis Of Molten Mixtures Of Galena And Lead Chloride., Donald Q. Cole

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Electrolysis of molten mixtures of lead chloride and galena was carried out under various conditions of temperature, time, composition, and current densities; without a diaphram, and with various diaphrams. Continuous runs, with necessary additions of lead sulfide and lead chloride to maintain a melt of the proper composition, were attempted on a small scale.

A Study Of The Effect Of Third Metals On The Wetting Properties Of Solders, William L. O'Brien

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Solders are not new alloys, since they were known in late Roman times when they were mentioned by Pliny. These solders differed very little from our modern ones. Tertiarium, consisting of one part of tin to two parts of lead, is known today as plumbers solder; and argentarium, consisting of equal parts of lend and tin, is still extensively used for many purposes.

Geology And Ore Deposits Of The Clinton Mining District, James F. Piquette

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

This report includes the results of geological investigation of the Clinton Mining District and the Hidden Treasure Mine.The Clinton Mining District is an unorganized mining dis­trict situated in the Garnet Range two and one-half miles northeast of the town of Clinton, Montana, which is on the Northern Pacific Railway and the Chicago_, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad seventeen miles east of the city of Missoula.

The district is in the same range of mountains as the Gar­net Mining District and the drainage from the district covered is to the south into the Hell Gate or Clarks Fork of …

The Testing And Concentration Of A Tungsten Ore, Turdat S. Simone

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

At the present time the principal uses for tungsten lie in the manufacture of ferro-alloys and tungsten steels. Due to it’s hardening and strengthening characteristics it holds an important position among steel hardening metals. The great rush for it’s production during the World War years clearly points to it’s importance in the manufacture of armament.

Report On The Ermont Mine Sec. 35, T. 6 S., R. 11 W., Beaverhead County, Montana, Chester Harkins Steele

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

An examination of the Ermont Mine was requested by the owners, Messrs. J. R. Bowles and R. B. Caswell, to determine the amount and grade of ore developed, the advisability of constructing a mill at the present time, and to recommend future development work.

The Age-Hardening Of Magnesium With Aluminum And Zinc, K. Deatley Loughridge

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Magnesium is one of the most active elements and forms oxides, nitrides, and carbides, but not hydrides. Due to its activity, low melting point, low strength when unalloyed, and the difficulty with which it is worked, magnesium has not been and is not at present well developed.

A Study Of Eutectics Of Certain Fused Salts, William D. Trethewey

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Considerable work has been done investigating the freezing point curves of fused salts, but little has been written describing the appearance of their eutectic structures when observed under the microscope.

Report On Pole Canyon Area And Area Three Miles Southeast Of Jefferson Island, Ted Newcombe

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The primary purpose of the trip was to acquaint the students with some of the problems that occur in the field, and also how to make geologic maps of sections, outcrops, faults, and other geologic features of the earths surface.

The Geology Of The Limespur-Sappington Area, Frank W. Archibald

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The area to be surveyed was divided up into sections add each crew of three or four members was assigned one of these sections. The first two days were spent in studying and mapping the geologic section in the South Boulder Canyon where we obtained practice in alidade surveying, brunton, pacing, and auto traverse.

John Deere Model D, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

All tractors tested at the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory were certified by their manufacturers as being stock model machines, conforming to specifications filed with the application for test. No special or high-test fuels were used except as recommended by the manufacturer as necessary.

All results within the official tractor test report were actually attained in tests and are without correction or allowances for friction, temperature, altitude, etc. The results were initially accomplished with the tractor in charge of skilled operators employed by the University.

Unless otherwise noted, each tractor was apparently in good condition at the end of the testing …

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Mercury has been known since ancient times. In fact, one mine, the "Almaden" in Spain, has been worked continuously since Roman times. It has been used during all this time for the recovery of free gold from gold concentrates, and from black sand and galena in concentrates from placer work.
