Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines on the measuring of temperature and pressure in oil and gas wells. Descriptions of the instrumentation developed and used for these measurements are presented. This report includes tables, graphs, and illustrations.

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines on the issues of disposal of crude oil and natural gas brine. Disposal methods are studied and presented. This report includes tables, maps, and illustrations.

From Introduction: "The work reported in this paper is part of a program of laboratory studies of inflammability of coal dusts started before the Bureau of Mines became a separate organization in 1910."

From Introduction: "It is the purpose of this present work (1) to apply the previously compiled entropy values and specific-heat equations to vapor-pressure and other pertinent data in obtaining heat and free energy of vaporization equations for inorganic substances valid up to the normal boiling or sublimation points (760 mm pressure), (2) to supplement wherever possible the data on heats and entropies of transformations and fusions, (3) to supplement wherever possible the data on heats and entropies of gases, and (4) to supply tables of vapor pressures for inorganic substances at various temperatures up to and including the boiling or sublimation point."

From Introduction: "This publication proposes to assemble existing thermodynamic data for carbonates and to correlate so far as possible the results of decomposition-pressure determinations with the calorimetrically determined heats of formation and entropy values on the one hand and with solubility and standard electrode-potential data on the other."

From Introduction Purpose and Scope of Report: "In the belief that the quickest and cheapest method of obtaining effective ventilation of metal mines with regard to air conditions that promote efficiency, health, and safety is through more general application of the engineering factors involved rather than by trial and error and this method of attacking ventilation problems will be facilitated by a simple, concise statement of these factors and the methods of using them, an attempt is made in this bulletin to present the subject of metal-mine ventilation to mine operators in a practical way."

From Object and Scope of Bulletin: "The purpose of this paper to combine in a single volume discussions of the winning of lead and zinc ores from the mines and of the milling of the ores with descriptions of practices at typical properties in the United States."

Report published by the U.S. Bureau of Mines which is a compilation of accidents in quarries located in the United States with data regarding the number and kinds of accidents as well as information about the mining operations (e.g., number of men employed, kinds of quarries, amount of work performed, etc.).

Report compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Mines including statistics on fatal and non-fatal accidents in coal mines located in the United States as well as data regarding the various operations (e.g., number of miners employed and average production). The information is organized into tables for comparison and the text draws some overall conclusions in the summary.

From Introduction: "The primary purpose of this bulletin is to describe the metallurgical treatment and properties of the alloys as developed in research at the laboratories of the Bureau of Mines at Rolla, Mo., and to present a substantial amount of unpublished data."

From Introduction: "The present paper collects and discusses thermodynamic data relating to metal carbides and nitrides, with the view of obtaining usable heat and free energy of formation relationships."

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing different methods of sand and gravel excavation. These methods include hydraulic, clam-shell, ladder, and dipper dredging. This report includes tables, and illustrations.
