Fluorite Near Silver Bow, Montana

The wartime demand for fluorspar has caused renewed interest in fluorite deposits. Near Silver Bow, Montana, a deposit of massive, coarsely crystalline fluorspar, which has not been described in the literature, has attracted the atten­tion of the United States Geological Survey.

Geology and Mines of the Upper Blackfoot Valley, Montana

The purchase and continued operation of the Mike Horse mine in the Heddleston district, by the American Smelting and Re­fining Company, gives the Blackfoot Valley a renewed promise of a prosperous future in its role as a mining district. In the past, large amounts of placer gold were recovered from the gulches of the area, however, because of the transporta­tion facilities, only the upper portions of a few lodes were exploited by the early miners.

Roasting and Leaching of Montana Chromite

The United States, although the leading consumer of chromite, depends almost entirely on imports for its supply. Domestic production of chromite is limited, because high-grade imported ore is plentiful and inexpensive in normal times. There are several large deposits of chromite in the United States, representing millions of tons of low grade ore. These deposits form a strategic reserve that must be used in time of national emergency.

Concentration of Manganese Dioxide from Philipsburg, Montana

Imports of manganese ore probably supply a major proportion of the needs of the United States. Domestic production is reported to be higher than pre-war levels, but does not equal that of the peak production year of 1943. In 1946, the Anaconda Copper Mining Company ac­counted for 90 percent of the total shipments of mangan­ese nodules, and this company is the largest producer of domestic metallurgical ore in the United States.

Separation of Cadmium from Zinc in the Purification Step of the Leaching Cycle

The purpose of this investigation is to determine the effect of the factors listed previously by conducting a series of tests that will indicate the ex­tent to which the purification is influenced by time, temperature, zinc oust size, zinc dust quantity, iron concentration, two stage precipitation, and aeration.

A Mineral Dressing Study of the Benefication of Philipsburg Manganese Carbonate Ore

The beneficiation of rhodochrosite ore to the extent that it is suitable for nodulizing and subsequent use in the steel industry is intriguing. Such ores from certain mines is relatively easy to beneficiate, but the rhodo-chrosite ore from several deposits of the Philipsburg district has never been successfully up-graded by any of the several known beneficiating methods.

This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Bacon's new map of the Witwatersrand goldfields in the districts of Pretoria and Heidelberg, Transvaal, S. A. R. : shewing the main and other reefs, with the farms, gold mining company's claims and concessions : from information in the Surveyor-General's Department. It was published by G. W. Bacon & Co. in 1895. Scale [ca. 1:88,992].The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM Zone 35S, meters, WGS 1984) projected coordinate system. All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as drainage, roads, railroads, cities and other human settlements, administrative boundaries, farms, homesteads, main reefs, other reefs, probable connections, and mills. Includes also notes and inset: "Enlarged map of the farms Lanlaagte, Turffontein, Dornfontein & Elandsfontein, shewing the boundaries of the principal deep level gold mining coys. on the Witwatersrand goldfields" and a geological profile of the area north of Magaliesberg to the south of Witwatersrange.This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features. The selection represents a range of originators, ground condition dates, scales, and map purposes.

Capital, trabalho, saúde e meio ambiente: uma relação destrutiva analisada em uma indústria de pelotização

O presente trabalho visa analisar as condições do processo de trabalho de uma empresa mineradora, de capital multinacional, em usinas de pelotização, instaladas em Anchieta/ES. Pretende, também, examinar os determinantes desse processo e as conseqüências para a saúde dos trabalhadores, levando em consideração sua exposição aos riscos, relacionadas à destruição do meio ambiente. Os procedimentos metodológicos adotados na pesquisa consistiram basicamente de estudo bibliográfico, análise documental e aplicação de questionários aos trabalhadores da empresa residentes nesse município. O estudo parte da relação existente entre capital, trabalho e saúde do trabalhador, tendo como marco histórico a revolução industrial. Destacam-se nesse resgate os diferentes momentos do sistema produtivo capitalista, fazendo um paralelo com os sistemas de saúde em relação ao trabalhador. Verificamos que, com a expansão dos estudos sobre trabalho e saúde do trabalhador, as discussões não ficaram restritas ao chão da fábrica, passando a articular o mundo da produção e o ambiente de trabalho, introduzindo o debate sobre a deterioração das condições ambientais em escala planetária no atual estágio de desenvolvimento do capitalismo. O campo de análise em que os aspectos pontuados são examinados é a cidade de Anchieta/ES, onde se localiza a empresa pesquisada. O processo de operação das usinas de pelotização nessa localidade transformou o pequeno lugarejo praiano, que vivia apenas da pesca, da agricultura familiar e do turismo tradicional, no litoral sul do Espírito Santo, em sede de um possível conglomerado de empresas e indústrias ligadas ao minério, à siderurgia, ao petróleo e gás. Como resultantes dos efeitos desse processo de produção, nas condições de vida dos trabalhadores, observa-se que as alterações produzidas pela empresa influenciam destrutivamente as duas principais fontes de produção da sua riqueza: a natureza, configurada no meio-ambiente local e nacional, e a força de trabalho nela alocada que fica submetida a todos os fatores de risco a sua saúde.
