From Preface: "It is the aim of this bulletin to point out in a general way the location of workable sandstone deposits in the United States, and to outline the most efficient and economical methods of quarrying and preparing the rock for structural and other purposes."

From Introduction: "This bulletin describes in some detail the more important work done by the Bureau of Mines during 1916 in efforts to increase safety and efficiency in the mineral industries. This bulletin gives descriptions of some noteworthy safety devices and discusses in fuller detail than the annual reports the relation of the bureau's work to the general problems of safety and efficiency in the mineral industries and the significance of the results that the bureau has been able to achieve."

From Introduction: "The year 1916 broke all previous records of mineral production in the Territory. As a consequence, there has been a noteworthy increase in the number of mines in active operation or under development, though the greater part of the increased output is the result of greater activity at mines already producing rather than of opening new mines.The Territorial inspector covered the districts from Fairbanks to Nome and the Federal Inspector covered those of southeastern and southwestern Alaska."

Technical report issued by the Bureau of Mines over the different uses of gypsum. The sources and uses of gypsum are presented and discussed. This report includes tables, photographs, and illustrations.

From Introduction: "A critical study of the wet Thiogen process for extracting sulphur from smoke of smelters is one of several investigations related to the general smelter-smoke problem that are being conducted under direction of the Bureau of Mines. Work on the Thiogen process was started again in January, 1916, in the laboratories of the new mining experiment station at Berkeley, Cal., and was continued during the spring of 2016 until a point was reached where it was felt that the essential parts of the process had been carefully covered, and that some definite statements concerning the technical features and possibilities of the process, as given in this report, were warranted."

From Introduction: "This report deals with a method of extracting gasoline from natural gas by absorbing the gasoline in oil and subsequently separating it from the oil by distillation."

Bulletin issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines: "This publication is devoted exclusively to a review and abstracts of decisions based on the laws governing the rights and duties of mine owners, operators, miners, and persons trafficking in all kinds of mining properties. It includes abstracts of current decisions of all the Federal and State courts of last resort on questions relating to the mining industries" (Bulletin 61, p. 9).

Report discussing technology for the production of salt in the United States and also the more important sources of salt in the United States.

From Introduction: "This condition is likely to be serious, as preparations have been made for opening the Matanuska, Bering River, and Neanna coal fields, and a number of permits granting the free use of 10-acre tracts in other fields throughout the Territory have been issued.The need of a comprehensive inspection law and experienced engineers to safeguard the opening of coal mines by operators who are not familiar with coal mining and are using inexperienced help is obvious."

From Introduction: "In this publication are considered the principles involved in increasing recovery and methods of extracting more oil from the oil-bearing formations than by usual ways of producing. These methods are: The use of gas or vacuum pumps. forcing compressed air or gas through the oil-bearing formations, displacing the oil by water, and better utilization of the natural pressures in the oil-bearing formations."

From Introduction: "The Bureau of Mines publishes this report in recognition of a distinct need for a simple treatise on accounting methods adapted to the peculiarities of the petroleum industry."

From Introduction: "This report describes the lead and zinc deposits and the mining methods employed in the sheet-ground area of the Joplin district, Missouri, and discusses the causes and the methods of abating rock dust in the mines, the chemical and physical characteristics of the dust, and the quantities present in mine air."

From Preface: "The information presented in this report is the outcome of a detailed investigation made at the blast-furnace plants of Pennsylvania during the year 1915 by the inspectors of the department of labor and industry of that State and by F.H. Wilcox, metallurgical engineer of the Bureau of Mines. It is hoped that this detailed review of the causes, circumstances, and prevention of accidents will be of assistance to the executive officials of the plants and to the employees by making clear the responsibility for accidents, by emphasizing the probability of repetition of many accidents unless care is taken, and by demonstrating the practicability of safeguards, thus resulting in a lessened number of injuries and fatalities."

From Introduction: "This bulletin, which is arranged in three parts, treats of the causes and prevention of blast-furnace breakouts, explosions, and slips."
