The Construction Of A Ferromagnetic Torsion Balance, Elliott Willner

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The construction of the apparatus was performed entirely in the machine shops at the Montana School of Mines. The materials utilized in the construction were obtained through the courtesy of many sources: the A. C. M. Co., the Montana Power Co., and the Western Iron Works.

Possible Mineral Resources University Land Grant, Montana School Of Mines Lands, Eugene S. Perry

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The following evaluation of the mineral resources of the University Land-Grant lands has been made from an office study of geologic maps and published reports, and from a rather thorough knowledge of the geology of the state by the writer after 23 years of experience in the state.

Studies Of Antimony Occurrence With Special Relation To Its Effective Extraction, San Jose Antimony Mines, Wadley, San Luis Potosi, Mexico, J. C. Archibald Jr.

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The mines at San Jose which are within the Wadley unit are the largest antimony mines in Mexico. These mines produce more than half of the antimony produced by the company from its mining operations. Since the time of the author's connection with the company, a number of changes have been made in planning of development work, handling of labor, methods of mine development, cost improvement, and other problems inherent in the successful guidance of an operation.

The Effect Of Temper Carbon Nodule Number On The Physical Properties Of A Malleable Iron, William J. Ruprecht

Masters Theses

"It is known that the number of temper carbon nodules per unit volume of malleable iron has an effect on both the rate of anneal and on the resulting physical properties, but neither have been clearly worked out quantitatively. The purpose of this investigation is to ascertain the effect of temper carbon nodule number on certain of the physical properties of a commercial malleable iron.

Quantitative determinations of the effect of temper carbon nodule number would be essential from a theoretical viewpoint in working out the mechanism of graphtization, and would be useful in commercial practice in showing the most …

The Depression Of Quartz In Sulphide Flotation, William Mcminn Billinghurst

Masters Theses

"The flotation of sulphide minerals from siliceous and calcareous gangue minerals always gives a concentrate that is contaminated to a greater or lesser degree with the gangue minerals, even though the collectors used do not show any appreciable collecting properties for the gangue minerals when they are treated alone. In an effort to reduce the amount of undesirable gangue mineral floated with the concentrate it is the practice to add arbitrary amounts of various reagents such as quebracho, alkali hydroxides, carbonates, silicates, sulphides, phosphates, fluorides, and sulphuric acid which have been found to be advantageous. The mechanism of depression is …

The Reactions Of The Sodium-, Potassium-, And The Lithium Tungsten Bronzes In The Solid State, Keki Khodadad Irani

Masters Theses

"The first part of this dissertation has the intention of determining whether MoO₃ forms solid solutions with Na-W bronze corresponding to the formula NaWO_3(1-x) (MoO₃)_x and whether the so-called “sodium-molybdenum bronze” exists.

The next part is concerned with the solubility of K-W bronze in Li-W bronze at high temperatures, in a vacuum, and the last part or this work has the intention of studying the solubility of K-W bronze in Na-W bronze at different temperatures.

The interest in this work is of a purely scientific nature rather than of academic interest"--Introduction, page 1.

A Study Of Volatility And Desulfurization Of Titanium Disulfide, Sheng-Tai Shih

Masters Theses

"The application of high vacuum for the promotion of metallurgical reactions is a comparatively new development. During the war the need for high vacuum in producing magnesium by the Pidgeon Process and in certain phases of uranium purification led to the perfection of both equipment and technique for high vacuum operations. These developments helped open the way for the entirely new field of vacuum metallurgy.

The reduction of metal oxides in vacuum has been studied by Dr. Kroll and Dr. Schlechten. They have been able to reduce many metals from their oxides under reduced pressures using carbon as a reducing …

Investigation To Improve Recovery Of Copper And Gold From A Refractory Ore, Raymond Franklin Cathcart

Masters Theses

"Results of tests presented in this paper indicate that the Santa Maria del Oro ores might be processed by a method which should yield a gold recovery of 96 to 98 percent and a copper recovery of about 78 percent, both figures subject to an increase with further work and study of the problem.

In the method of processing outlined in Figure IX, the ores, mixed as under present operating procedure, would be crushed to minus 20-mesh and roasted with ten pounds of sodium chloride per ton of feed in a multiple-hearth, down-draft roaster at temperatures varying to a maximum …

Precise Lattice Parameter Determinations Of Diamond Silicon And Germanium By The Asymmetric Method, Esrefettin Zeki Aka

Doctoral Dissertations

"The construction of the apparatus for production of powder patterns at a definite temperature and the technique for evaluation of x-ray powder patterns by the asymmetric method are described in detail, and the mode of error elimination is discussed.

A new scanning device is designed for use in x-ray diffraction work.

A modified method is described for the determination of densities of solids, which eliminates some of the difficulties interfering with other similar methods thus far proposed. Formulae are derived for the calculation of density as well as for reduction of density at a desired temperature.

The following conclusion are …
