Each veinlet consists of quartz, in which copper pyrite, zincblcnde, galena and iron pyrite arc disseminated. The contents of the ore are 0.00438 per cent. gold, 0.0043 per cent. silver and 1.2.") per cent, copper. A winding engine is operated by a portable boiler, and a pulsometer is used for the underground drainage. The mine stuff is spalled and sorted into small ore, fine ore, and grain ore, the small ore being washed in water. The ore is directly smelted in three water jacket furnaces, three feet in diameter, together with iron oxide ore and limestone as fluxes. Both coke and charcoal are used as fuel. The blast is furnished by one No. 8 Root's blower. The power plant is made up of one 80 H.P. horizontal tubular boiler, and one 20 H.P. portable horizontal tubular boiler, one 80 H. P. engine, one 20 H.P. winding engine, one 125 H.P. vertical turbine for the blower, one 12 k.w. dynamo, and one 6 H.P. motor.

Coal Mining Communities and Gentrification in Japan
Author: Tai Wei LimPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811372209
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
This book offers a multidisciplinary analysis of approach in the field of energy studies of Japan, examining post-closure coal mining towns in Japan and their gentrification. It considers the impact of closures on the agricultural industry, the re-absorption of laid off coal miners into service and industrial sectors, and the gentrification of former coal mines into agricultural farms and communities. It also considers the historical process of gentrification in terms of origins, social history, continuity/discontinuity and cooperation/resistance. The historical background of coal mine closures analyses nostalgic recollection about mine closures and Sakubei's UNESCO drawings of life in the coal mines and other cultural materials related to coal energy and the mining industry in general in Japan.
Environmental History in the Making

Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
This book is the product of the 2nd World Conference on Environmental History, held in Guimarães, Portugal, in 2014. It gathers works by authors from the five continents, addressing concerns raised by past events so as to provide information to help manage the present and the future. It reveals how our cultural background and examples of past territorial intervention can help to combat political and cultural limitations through the common language of environmental benefits without disguising harmful past human interventions. Considering that political ideologies such as socialism and capitalism, as well as religion, fail to offer global paradigms for common ground, an environmentally positive discourse instead of an ecological determinism might serve as an umbrella common language to overcome blocking factors, real or invented, and avoid repeating ecological loss. Therefore, agency, environmental speech and historical research are urgently needed in order to sustain environmental paradigms and overcome political, cultural an economic interests in the public arena. This book intertwines reflections on our bonds with landscapes, processes of natural and scientific transfer across the globe, the changing of ecosystems, the way in which scientific knowledge has historically both accelerated destruction and allowed a better distribution of vital resources or as it, in today’s world, can offer alternatives that avoid harming those same vital natural resources: water, soil and air. In addition, it shows the relevance of cultural factors both in the taming of nature in favor of human comfort and in the role of the environment matters in the forging of cultural identities, which cannot be detached from technical intervention in the world. In short, the book firstly studies the past, approaching it as a data set of how the environment has shaped culture, secondly seeks to understand the present, and thirdly assesses future perspectives: what to keep, what to change, and what to dream anew, considering that conventional solutions have not sufficed to protect life on our planet.
