    Freeze-sampling method of collecting drainage sediments for gold exploration

    By J. S. Coats, G. E. Patts, N. Hughes

    Conventional sampling methods are known to suffer from the variable loss of fine gold by elutriation. Freeze sampling yields representative and quantitative data that, when combined with information o

    Effect of pore diffusion on reacitvity of lump coke

    By G. M. Zhao

    The gasification of lump coke with CO2 was studied in a fixed-bed reactor. The effective diffusivity of the gas was evaluated from measurements of the reactivity of the lump coke, produced by BHP Stee

    Determination of optimum conditions for dissolution of ulexite in sulphuric acid solutions

    By S Colak, M Tunc, C Celik, M. M. Kocakerim

    The most important parameters affecting the solubility of ulexite (sodium calcium borate) in H2SO4 were found to be reaction temperature and solid:liquid ratio, in that order. Dissolution increased w

    Kinetics of oxidation of MoO2 to MoO3 by oxygen at elevated temperatures

    By E Oktay, I Yusufoglu, C Kahruman

    Powder and spherical pellets of MoO2 were oxidised under controlled conditions in the temperature range 674-791 K at oxygen partial pressures of 8.1-30.4 kPa. Weight increase during the reaction was d

    Catalytic effects in CaO-enhanced reduction of copper sulphide: Cu2S-CaO-C system

    By M. Moinpour, Y. K. Rao

    The catalysed direct reduction of copper sulphide with carbon and lime was investigated in the range 850-1000 degrees C using Cu2S-CaO-C and Cu2S-4CaO-4C reaction mixtures. The effects of the catalyti

    Leaching of Dominican gold ores in iodide-catalysed thiocyanate solutions

    By S. P. Ball, A. J. Monhemius

    In a laboratory study under acidic oxidising conditions, the thiocyanate system gave results at least as good as cyanide and considerably better than thiourea, with modest consumption of SCN (less tha

    A future in coal: viable or not?

    By G. Kill

    Although other energy commodities have developed successful futures contracts, long-term contracts still dominate the coal market. To establish whether coal markets will develop in the same way, coal
