The effect of the cooling condition of ferro nickel slag melts on retained glass and crystalline phases (enstatite, forsterite, cristobalite) has been discussed.Commercial ferro nickel slags were classified into two groups; one (slag A, B, C) was located the composition of the olivine (forsterite) primary phase field and the other (slag D)was the eutectic field between pyroxene (enstatite) and olivine in the FeO-MgO-SiO2system.The critical cooling rates for glass forming determined directly from the CCT diagrams were in the range of 120 to 20°C/sec and those were dependent on the content of SiO2as a network former. Forsterite, enstatite, and ristobalite crystallized from all of the ferro nickel slags in that order with decreasing the continuous cooling rate. The first crystalline phase at isothermal heat treatment from the slag A, B, C was forsterite, while those of the slag D were forsterite and enstatite. Enstatite and cristobalite gradually crystallized with the holding time at this treatment.In addition, the possibility of alkali-aggregate reaction were evaluated by the chemical test, ASTMC289 for the as-received and the heat-treated slags.

Endless rope railways have heretofore been widely utilized for haulage of ore or broken stone in many mines but the method was considered suitable only for short distances of about 1 kilometer or less.The writer, at the Okutama Limestone Quarry under his management, has installed an endlessrope- traction railroad of five-kilometer length for efficient haulage of large quantities of crushed limestone. This system was adopted in order to avoid the huge construction costs that would have been entailed had normal railroad been constructed over the craggy mountainous topography of the projected route.Construction costs were about half that of a regular narrow gauge railway, while after several years of operation it has been found that the running expenses come to less than half those of a railway line.(Improvement Features)A completely automatic cable clip was devised, permitting a rope speed more than double that of ordinary endless rope railway.In designing and selecting the route, deflections were possibly avoided and curve radii were kept at more than 200m. Grade is downward throughout the entire line and at the point of change of grade vertical curve of large radius were used, thus permitting extremely smooth coursing and rotation of rope for efficient high-speed operation with surprisingly low consumption of power.

Lithium is widely used in industry products such as pottery or glass additives, glass flux for continuous casting of steel, grease, medicine, battery. In particular, since lithium ion batteries, which are secondary batteries, have high energy density and high voltage, recent applications have expanded as batteries for electronic devices such as laptop computers, as automotive batteries for electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles. Therefore, demand for lithium is rapidly increasing. However, in the recovery of lithium from a salt lake, brine containing many impurities such as sulfate and magnesium ions are not effectively utilized because solar evaporation cannot be used. We developed the λ-MnO2 adsorbent in order to selectively recover lithium from such brine. In this study, we investigated the adsorption characteristics such as adsorption capacity, adsorption rate and selectivity of lithium by batch mixing and column test using simulated brine. The adsorbent prepared by hydrometallurgical process had higher adsorption capacity and rate of lithium than the adsorbent prepared by pyrometallurgical process.

An experiment to break or weaken rocks by micro wave was performed. The output power of the micro wave has 20-80kW with 915MHz, which was applied in order to generate thermal stress in some kinds of rocks and concrete owing to temperature increase in the rocks according to the principle of “Dielectric Heating”en, the followings were obtained within this experiment.1) The temperature increase is approximately in proportion to the output power.2) The temperature increase is approximately in inverse proportion to the distance between aperture face of electric/magnetic horn and rock surface.3) The temperature increase becomes higher as aperture area of micro wave horn is smaller in constant output power.4) Main factor to crush the rock specimen by heating is to generate the thermal stress by rock heating.5) The rock with hither water content tends to have higher temperature increase in same rock tvne.6) The penetration depth of applied micro wave depends on dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the material.

The Earth is the miraculous body, where its planetary conditions fit the conditions for life and the Sun's mercy gives rise to the prosperity of life. The eat-eaten connection of life is known as food chain, and almost all of the food chains on Earth start from photosynthesis, and photosynthesis depends in turn on the radiation from the Sun. In this sense, most of the Earth's organisms are Sun-eaters ultimately. However, recent studies proposed the significance of the lives independent of photosynthesis such as the ones in deep-sea and deep subsurface. Findings of the life in the dark facilitate the recognition of Earth-eaters, and the idea that deep subsurface of the Earth (and possibly other planetary bodies) serves as the cradle and nursery for life.The idea of deep subsurface life is not necessarily new, however, it is since 1980's that the idea has been scientifically hypothesized and tested. By now, the existence of deep subsurface biosphere is scientifically recognized, and current interests are placed on: the abundance (biomass), diversity, biological limit (potentials), involvement in biogeochemical cyclings, and association with the origin(s) of life. Even astrobiological curiosity relates the ubiquity of "life in the dark" in deep subsurface to the presumed presence of extraterrestial life. This communication provides the geo-biological background of the deep subsurface biosphere and reviews some important topics from recent studies.

There has been a rapid increase of interest to unconventional methods of fracturing rocks.Particularly, mechanics of thermal fracture, either by the application of direct heat or electrothermal conversion, are most favourable for practice.In this paper, the authors reported their experiments to measure the strength changes of rocks heated to high temperatures and the thermal fracture.From the experiments, several fracturing mechanisms of rocks heated to high temperatures were found. Which are;a) Thermal elastic stresses induced in rock.b) Transformation of crystal form of the constituting minerals of rock.c) Decomposition of the constituting minerals.d) Melting.e) Thermal expansion of the constituting minerals.f) Others.Neverthless these mechanisms are all affecting to thermal fracturing of rock, one of them is a dominant factor to fracture a particular kind of rock by heat, for example b) to granite and c) to limestone.

The separation and purification methods of precious metals from the scrap containing precious metals are introduced in this review. The solid waste containing precious metals first is dissolved by the solution comprising oxidation agents and ligands, such as aqua regia, Cl2 + HCl and NaCN + O2. The separation of precious metals in the leached solution or wasted solution is carried out by using various methods like classic precipitation, cementation, ion exchange resin, activated carbon adsorption and solvent extraction. It depends on the concentration and combination of precious metals what kind of separation method is applied. Generally, adsorption and ion exchange methods are applicable to the dilute solution, while precipitation, cementation and solvent extraction are used for the concentrated solution. In the recovery of the precious metals in automobile catalyst, the collection of the platinum group metals in Cu or Fe metal melted by a plasma melting method is performed as one of the recovery techniques by the pyro-metallurgy.The fundamental of separation and purification methods, and some commercial plant examples are described for recycling of precious metals.

It is well known that rocks are more or less deteriorated by sudden cooling after being heated. Furthermore, by repeating the cycle of heating-cooling, rocks might be expected to be weakened more severely.In this paper, measuring the changes of the physical and mechanical properties of rocks including apparent specific gravity, P-wave velocity, Young's modulus and uniaxial compressive strength, the thermal fatigue process of rocks is characterized for four kinds of rocks, namely, OGINO tuff, EMOCHI welded tuff, AKIYOSHI marble and INADA granite. The cylindrical specimens are suddenly submerged into water after being heated and the cycle is automatically repeated in the testing machine.The maximum temperature and the maximum cycles in the experiment are 600°C and 54, respectively.The main results obtained are as follows:(1) The main failure mechanism is different between the crystalline rock and the sedimentary rock. The failure of the former takes place by the thermal interaction between minerals and that of the latter by the transient thermal stresses. As the result, crystalline rocks collapse to be particles or powders and sedimentary rocks are fractured initiating regular thermal cracks (Fig.6).(2) The strengths of the rocks except welded tuff decrease remarkably within 5 cycles if the temperature is sufficiently high and the cooling time is larger enough (Fig.3).(3) The strengths of the rocks except marble decrease as the cooling time increases. However, the additional effect is very small if the cooling time is larger than that needed for the specimens to be perfectly cooled (Fig.4).(4) The cycles at which the specimens collapse exponentially increase as the temperature decreases (Fig.5).
