One of the most interesting fields in North America was discovered, early in 1922, near the towns of Sunburst and Kevin, Toole County, Mont. This field produces oil from the Jurassic beds, which heretofore have been of but little importance as oil producers, and promses to be the

THE Russellton preparation plant of Republic Steel Corp., located north of Pittsburgh, Pa., prepares 395x0-in. Thick-Freeport coal by means of a 13-ft 6-in. diam Chance cone and 16 No. 7 Deister tables. The plant feed ranges between 370 and 410 tons per hr, of which approximately 31 pct is 1/4xO-in. size, and the plant reject ranges between 14 and 16 pct of the feed.

The existence of copper-ores in the Permian measures of Texas has long been known, and these ores have been, from time to time, the object of geological researches and mining

i\- number of investigations have established that tungsten monocarbide (WC) forms throughout a wide range of temperatures (800° to 2200°C), but the di-tungsten carbide (W2C) forms only at the high end of this temperature range.1"7 In addition the decomposition of WC into WzC and C at elevated temperatures has been observed.8"10

An effort has been made to evaluate the individual influence of various factors in steel making and rolling operations upon the surface quality of semi-finished steel products. The thoughts expressed are not entirely theoretical, but rather are based upon several years critical observation of mill yields and rejec-tions and are supported by actual data wherever this has been possible.

Two approaches to automated operation in metallurgical processes involve the conventional analog control or, more recently, digital control. The expanding use of digital controls applied to process automation is a comparatively new development. Several current technical reports describe digital control systems in concentrator grinding control, 1, 2, flotation, 3 and smelter operations. 4,5 The principle factors influencing trends to digital control are:

WHEN Bridgman1 determined the volume-pressure relationships of bismuth to 100 kg Cm-2, he found two small volume discontinuities at 45 and 64 kg em-2. Probably every investigator in high pressures has determined the electrical resistivity of bismuth in this pressure range. Until Zeitlin and Brayman2 reported discontinuities in the resistance of bismuth at these pressures, no one had found resistance discontinuities

Some uranium minerals are paramagnetic and hence are amenable to concentration by high gradient magnetic separation (HGMS). This paper describes effects of the HGMS parameters-pulp velocity, field strength, matrix loading, and magnetic field gradient-on the product recovery and grade. Unsatisfactory separation of uranium minerals by HGMS is related to ore-specific properties, such as lack of liberation, fine dissemination of uranium minerals, uniform distribution of magnetic minerals throughout the ore matrix, and interference of fine-sized slimes. Experimental techniques to identify and resolve some of these problems are outlined.

Vague references to tin-deposits in Mexico are scattered throughout technical literature, and that country has been looked to as a likely source of a part of the world's supply of till at no very distant date; but thus far nothing but occasional small lots have come forward, so that the notion has arisen that these mines are either mythical or unworkable. So far as I am aware, there has not yet been published any description of the tin-deposits of Mexico except a few brief references; and this paper, based on a study of them made in 1892, is therefore offered.

The occurrence of siderite in beds of considerable thickness in the clay formations of Martha's Vineyard, Mass., may have some economical importance, and is at least interesting in a scientific point of view.

This paper aims to characterise the forms of slope instability incident in surface coal mines in Britain. These are related to observed controlling factors, with particular reference being given to slope geometry and structure. The work is based on specific data collection programmes considering actual stable and unstable mine slopes. Reference is made to field examples.

The mother lode, or mineralized belt, at Angels, in Calaveras county, California, is 3 miles wide. At least, a region of that width has been, and is being, prospected which has shown considerable mineralization. The lode proper divides into three lodes, or groups of veins, at this point. On all of these branches, mines have been operated with more or less success.
