The metallic element Nickel, discovered by Cronstedt the mineralogist, in the year 1751, as a peculiar metal in kupfer-nickel, remained for a long time comparatively unknown in its true charac-

The fact that the loss of silver in the slag of the smeltingprocess increases with the amount of silica in the furnacecharge, was probably the ground of a general opinion that the silver is present in the slag as a silicate. Dr. Iles, in his inter-

Spurred by a variety of factors, coal flotation is making headway among the preparation plants of West Germany. Mr. Sallmann provides a general view of flotation practices being employed in his country, with special emphasis on the many-sided problems that confront German coal preparation engineers.

Pyrometasomalic mineralization occurs within meta-morphosed Paleozoic carbonates intruded by Laramide granodiorites. Two types of alteration developed shams in the district. The dominant type is post-magmatic which developed an early hydrous endoskarn phase, and intermediate anhydrous exoskarn phase, and a late hydrous phase affecting both sham types. A rare, second type is magmatic in age, lacks the hydrous phases, and developed a mineralogically-zoned endoskarn. Garnet exoskarns lacking associated plutonic rocks are stratigraphically controlled and contain an early anhydrous phase, an intermediate hydroxyl-bearing phase, and a late hydrous phase associated with base metal deposition.

One of the limitations of the 3-dimensional Lerchs-Grossmann pit optimisation algorithm has been the difficulty in calculating an optimum pit with variable wall slopes. The difficulties have been related to establishing various wall slopes without changing the sizes of the blocks used in the normal computation, but still retaining an optimum solution.

The Howe Memorial Lecture, in memory of Henry Marion Howe, Past President of the Institute, was authorized in April, 1923, as an annual address to be delivered by invitation under the auspices of the Institute by an individual of recognized and out- standing attainment in the science and practice of iron and steel metallurgy or metallography, chosen by the Board of Directors upon recommendation of the Iron and Steel Division. The follow- ing were the Howe lectures and lecturers for the years indicated: 1924 What is Steel? By Albert Sauveur. 1926 Austenite and Austenitic Steels. By John A. Mathews.

The outstanding development in Colorado in 1938 was the completion of the discovery well of the Wilson Crcek structure in Rio Blarlco County, on the western slope in the northwest corner of Colorado. Last year the Transactions (volume 127) carried an account of the discovery of oil in the Morrison sand in the Wilson Creek structure, in the joint test by The Texas Company and The California Company. This important

THE enormous production of pig-iron, together with the many difficult and interesting problems with which its manufacture is fraught, has secured to this industry the exclusive attention of scientists with reference to the chemistry of iron, while some of the minor departments of its metallurgy have suffered neglect. Particularly is
