THE officers of the Mining Department have exerted themselves zealously during the year in collecting information respecting the labors of the miners and the results of their efforts. Many valuable facts connected with the modes of occurrence of gold and other metals and minerals have been gathered ; and some of the Wardens and Mining Surveyors, and gentlemen altogether unconnected with the Mining· Department, have contributed highly interesting geological maps and sections, exhibiting better than could be done by verbal descriptions many of the obscurer phenomena of veins and auriferous and stanniferous deposits. These in due time will be published. GOLD. According to the returns furnished by the Honorable the Commissioner of Gold exp .. rlcd. Trade and Customs, the quantities of gold exported during the years I867, I868, and I 869, are as follow:- ozs. dwts. 1,433,687 6 1,657,498 o 1869 1,34o,838 8 It would appear, therefore, that as eompared with I 868 there is a decrease of 3I6,659 ozs. I2 dwts., and as compared with I867 a decrease of 92,848 ozs. I8 dwts. Up to the 3 Ist December I 867 there was an export duty on gold, and persons exporting gold without paying the duty and, of course, recording the quantity exported at the Customs, were liable to heavy penalties; and whether under the present system all the quantities of gold exported are duly recorded is a question which need not be discussed here; but another estimate may be formed of the produce of our goldfields by contrasting the Customs returns with the figures furnished by the Mining Surveyors and Mining Registrars, whose information is derived from the books of the bank managers and gold buyers on the several goldfields. Their returns for the three years are as follow :- ozs. dwts. 1867 1,788,o59 o Gold purdm:-:.cd. 1868 1,684,919 12 J869 1,544>757 8 As the Victorian goldfields on the west approach very closely the borders of South Australia, and on the north-east and east are separated from New South Wales but by a narrow stream and a line not yet marked in any way, it may safely be presumed that neither the quantities recorded as exported nor as purchased represent accu­ rately the quantities actually raised by our miners ; but for all purposes the quantity exported during the year will, as in past years, be used for comparison in the tables appended to this Report. The mean number of miners employed in I 869 was 67,5 8 8, more by 4,407 Num~>cr ui than the mean number employed in I 868. The number employed in the last quarter ;:;~~".::~. ·~~·­ of the year I869 was 63,787, less by 87I than the number employed in the last quarter of r 86 8. 8 'Chinese miners. As regards the Chinese there is little change.

The work was performed by the Office of Contract Archeology, University of New Mexico (OCA/UNM) as a follow-up project to the Class III OCA survey of the 40-acre parcel of CNM-owned land. That survey documented six archeological sites and 12 Isolated Occurrences. Four of the sites, including LA 158640, and LA 158641, were recommended as eligible for the nomination to the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion “d” of 36 CFR 60.4.

  • Yosemite Environmental Education Center
    National Park Service Yosemite National Park U.S. Department of the Interior Yosemite Environmental Education Center Final Environmental Impact Statement January 2010 Yosemite Environmental Education Center Final Environmental Impact Statement Yosemite National Park Lead Agency: National Park Service ABSTRACT The Yosemite Institute (YI), a National Park Service (NPS) non- profit park partner, has provided environmental education programs in Yosemite National Park since 1971. In 1973, YI began using the old CCC/NPS Blister Rust camp at Crane Flat for overnight programs and operations. YI also leads programs out of Curry Village in Yosemite Valley, and rotates students in and out of the two park areas throughout their week- long stay. Most of the Crane Flat campus structures and utilities are approaching 70 years old, are energy inefficient, and are increasingly difficult to retrofit to achieve modern standards for health, safety, and accessibility. Crane Flat campus currently provides overnight lodging for 76 students per night, while the remainder is housed in commercial lodging in Curry Village (now in adjacent Boystown) at a significantly higher cost. To address these issues, and provide a more suitable educational facility, YI and NPS are considering options to redevelop the existing campus or construct a new campus at a different location. This Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) presents and analyzes three alternatives the agency is considering for public input and review, according to the National Environmental Policy Act (1969, as amended): Alternative 1—No- Action ; Alternative 2—Redevelop Crane Flat Campus; and Alternative 3 (Preferred)— Construct a new campus at Henness Ridge, and restore Crane Flat to natural conditions.

When a herd of buffalo was sighted the men ride out. The ogihtcitau ukima rides ahead holding up his gun. When he drops it, the riders begin the chase. The horses were so trained that when they saw the buffalo it was very hard to hold them. Sometimes a man just couldn't hold his horse and would be carried on past the leader. Everybody saw that it was not his fault that he couldn't control the horse. But when the ogihtcitau get home they yell and shout. They punish the chief of the man who lost control, not the man himself. If the chief were a good, kind chief (this was seldom done), he would fill a pipe and go out leading his best horse and holding good cloth.

  • The Northwestern Amazon Malocas: Craft Now and Then

Through methods of seasonal reconstruction based on lightweight enclosures made mainly from palms, vernacular housing, or malocas, in the region have proven efficient from environmental, human comfort, and cultural perspectives. Intricately woven palms, layered to shape roofs and walls, form enclosures that repel water, insulate heat, and reflect light while embodying specific projections of the body in space as the basis of unique cosmological perspectives of spatial organization. The palm-weave is the very root of the construction ethos of Northwestern Amazon housing. In the last few decades, these complex woven enclosures have been progressively replaced with industrial panels made of materials such as galvanized steel or cement, simply because of their low economic cost and availability. The loss of the palm-weave in roof-walls is not a mere replacement but a supplantation of material culture and has profound environmental, human comfort, and social implications. In a context where resilience has been shaped cognitively and physically through a plant-based material culture of adaptability, what is the extent of a potential craft disruption? The supplantation of the palm-weave technical practice implies a loss of social engagement in a craft that has defined an understanding of belonging and inhabitation.

    Rafael Antonio Cunha rchitecture and Perrone structure: reading and Maria Augusta Justi a Pisani dissection of the oca Rafael Schimidt building at ibirapuera park pós- 1 Abstract This article establishes associations between the structure and the architecture designs of the Oca building, through graphic sources surveys unknown until the investigation beginning. The research started from a survey on some structures designed by the engineer José Carlos de Figueiredo Ferraz (1918-1994), whose part of the collection was destroyed by fire. Many of his significant structural design works are known, as the buildings MASP, FAUUSP USP’s Faculty of History and Geography, and SESC Pompéia. The Oca building, designed in the early 1950s by Oscar Niemeyer and his team, with structural calculations done by engineer José Carlos de Figueiredo Ferraz, the shell of the building was the first designed by the architect and became a widely used in his later works. This research rescued part of the design drawings, which made it possible to relate architecture and structure. The method used several parallel and hybrid phases: a search for iconographic material and documents in public and private archives, which represent a dissection of the structure of this case study. The text is constructed by an introduction about the Oca Project in Ibirapuera Park, its development, observations about its possible etymologies, its form and relations with the structure. The results shown reveal the advances in the Brazilian architecture and engineering manifested in the 1950s. Keywords Architectural design. Structural design. Oscar Niemeyer.
