Paper coal in Indiana
G.K. Guennel, R.C. Neavel
1959, Science (129) 1671-1672
The foliated, papery texture of the upper third of an 18-inch coal seam in a strip mine near Rockville, Indiana, is attributable to matted plant cuticle. The cuticles of pinnules, pinnae, and rachides resemble Sphenopteris bradfordii Arnold and thus differ from the lycopsid stem cuticles of the Russian paper coal....

Ion exchange in clays and other minerals
Dorothy Carroll
1959, GSA Bulletin (70) 749-779
Ion exchange in clays and other minerals is dependent on the crystalline structure of the mineral and on the chemical composition of any solution in contact with the mineral. The structures of clay minerals and zeolites are briefly described to provide a background for the discussion of their ion-exchange reactions....

Compilation of data, preparation of illustrations, and writing of...
Field observations on effects of Alaska earthquake of 10 July 1958
D. Tocher, D. J. Miller
1959, Science (129) 394-395
The Alaska earthquake of 10 July 1958 was caused by movement on the Fairweather fault amounting to at least 21 1/2 feet horizontally and 3 1/2 feet vertically. Effects of strong shaking were evident over a large area in southeastern Alaska. In Lituya Bay an enormous wave, possibly resulting from...
The life-cycle of the digenetic trematode, Proctoeces maculatus (Looss, 1901) Odhner, 1911 (Syn. P. rubtenuis [Linton, 1907] Hanson, 1950), and description of Cerceria adranocerca n. sp

The genus Proctoeces was erected by Odhner ( 191 1) to contain Distonium maculatuni Looss, 1901, from Labrus merula and Crenilabrus spp. at Triest. Odhner had found the parasite in Blennius ocellaris at Naples. One adult specimen from Chrysophrys bifasciata and two immature specimens from lulis lunaris taken in the...

New occurrences of ferroselite (FeSe2)
R. G. Coleman
1959, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (16) 296-301
Iron selenide from the uranium-vanadium ores of the Colorado Plateau was under investigation when ferroselite was described as a new mineral in Russia by Bur'yanova and Komkov (1955). Association of ferroselite with selenian pyrite and marcasite within discrete areas of these uranium-vanadium deposits suggests an unusual environment of formation. Its association...
Determination of chlorine in silicate rocks
L. C. Peck, E. J. Tomasi
1959, Analytical Chemistry (31) 2024-2026
In a rapid accurate method for the determination of chlorine in silicate rocks, the rock powder is sintered with a sodium carbonate flux containing zinc oxide and magnesium carbonate. The sinter cake is leached with water, the resulting solution is filtered, and the filtrate is acidified with nitric acid. Chlorine...
