    MINERALS SORTED BY NAME Here is an alphabetical list of minerals discussed on this site. More information on and photographs of these minerals in Kentucky is available in the book “Rocks and Minerals of Kentucky” (Anderson, 1994). APATITE Crystal system: hexagonal. Fracture: conchoidal. Color: red, brown, white. Hardness: 5.0. Luster: opaque or semitransparent. Specific gravity: 3.1. Apatite, also called cellophane, occurs in peridotites in eastern and western Kentucky. A microcrystalline variety of collophane found in northern Woodford County is dark reddish brown, porous, and occurs in phosphatic beds, lenses, and nodules in the Tanglewood Member of the Lexington Limestone. Some fossils in the Tanglewood Member are coated with phosphate. Beds are generally very thin, but occasionally several feet thick. The Woodford County phosphate beds were mined during the early 1900s near Wallace, Ky. BARITE Crystal system: orthorhombic. Cleavage: often in groups of platy or tabular crystals. Color: usually white, but may be light shades of blue, brown, yellow, or red. Hardness: 3.0 to 3.5. Streak: white. Luster: vitreous to pearly. Specific gravity: 4.5. Tenacity: brittle. Uses: in heavy muds in oil-well drilling, to increase brilliance in the glass-making industry, as filler for paper, cosmetics, textiles, linoleum, rubber goods, paints. Barite generally occurs in a white massive variety (often appearing earthy when weathered), although some clear to bluish, bladed barite crystals have been observed in several vein deposits in central Kentucky, and commonly occurs as a solid solution series with celestite where barium and strontium can substitute for each other. Various nodular zones have been observed in Silurian–Devonian rocks in east-central Kentucky.

  • Gypsum and Carbon Amendment's
    GYPSUM AND CARBON AMENDMENT’S INFLUENCE ON SOIL PROPERTIES, GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, GROWTH AND NUTRIENT UPTAKE OF RYEGRASS (Lolium perenne) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Maninder Kaur Walia, M.S. Environment and Natural Resources Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Warren A. Dick, Advisor Rattan Lal Brian K. Slater Frederick C. Michel,Jr. Copyrighted by Maninder Kaur Walia 2015 Abstract Gypsum is a source of calcium and sulfur that improves the physical and chemical properties of the soil. With the benefits associated with gypsum use and the increased availability of synthetic gypsum, its application to soil in Ohio and the Midwest is increasing. Several studies have focused on the effect of gypsum on soil properties. However, little is known about how gypsum affects C stocks in soils. In this study, in addition to gypsum, we also treated the soil with glucose to create a high level of CO2 in the soil profile, and contrasted that with the more slowly released C from plant residues. The overall goal of this dissertation research was to evaluate the effect of plant residues, glucose and gypsum on the growth and nutrient uptake of ryegrass, chemical properties (including total and inorganic C stock) and physical properties of two contrasting soils in Ohio (Wooster silt loam and Hoytville clay loam). Specific objectives of this research were to quantify the effect of (1) gypsum and plant residues on greenhouse gas emissions, (2) gypsum and C amendments on quality of leachate water, (3) gypsum and C amendments addition on C fractions in soils, (4) gypsum, plant residues and glucose addition on soil fertility, growth and nutrients concentrations of ryegrass and (5) gypsum, glucose and plant residues on selected soil physical properties and aggregate-associated C and N.

Townsend May 2003 URL: http:llwww.recyclingtoday,com/arficles/article.asp?lD=4759&CafiD=&SubCatlD= Gypsum drywall is a major component of modern buildings, yet it is often one of the least likely components of debris frem building construction, demolition or renovation to be recycled. Gypsum drywall typically makes up 5 percent to 25 percent of the weight of debris from building-related C&D activities, A typical rule of thumb for drywall generation from construction activities is one pound of drywall per cubic foot of construction. The amount of post-consumer drywall generated in Florida C&D debris in 2000 was estimated at nearly 500,000 tons. Most of this was disposed in unlined landfills. Recovery and recycling is always desired in place of lend- filling when feasible, but several environmentel factors (odor, groundwater contamination) create added incentive for recycling d~JwalL While several gypsum drywall recycling operations exist in North America at the current time, in many areas (Florida for example) drywa!l recycling is relatively nonexistent. This paper describe~ some of the issues facing the C&D debris industry and summarizes the current state of gypsum drywall recycling in North America. DRYWALL BASICS Gypsum drywall, often referred to as gypsum wallbeard or sheet rock, replaced gypsum piaster as the major interior wall surface because of its ease of installation and its fire resistant properties. Gypsum drywal! consists of approximately 90 percent gypsum and 10 percent paper facing and backing. Gypsum is a mineral composed of calcium sulfate (CaSOL and water (H20).

  • Rings, Kings, Saints and Toads Protective and Healing Functions of Late Medieval Amulet Rings in England
    Rings, Kings, Saints and Toads Protective and Healing Functions of Late Medieval Amulet Rings in England In 1441, Margaret Paston was expecting her first child. Anxiously, she wrote to her husband John in London: ‘I pray that you will wear the ring with the image of Saint Margaret that I sent you for a remembrance until you come home.’1 In asking her husband to wear a ring emblazoned with the patron saint of childbirth to support her in her time of need (e.g. Fig. 1), Margaret Paston was engaging with a culture of healing and devotion in late medieval England that was centred around the amuletic use of rings. (Fig. 1, a St Margaret ring which bears similarities to the Paston Ring, 15thc, British Museum, AF.910) This use of rings was part of a wider practice of employing jewellery as amulets in medicine. Pendants, brooches, bracelets, diadems, belts and hair pins were emblazoned with holy figures, sacred inscriptions and precious stones, all of which conveyed the wearer’s wealth and piety, but also afforded a variety of protective functions through expressing their devotion. Illness or misfortune was often linked to punishment and sin in the middle ages and adorning the body with holy words and images was considered an effective method of devotional healing. These accessories could provide a range of protections, such as shielding against plague, dampening fevers, staunching blood or even protecting from occult practices. However, to consider these amulets as simply products of folk beliefs and superstitions is to underestimate their position in late medieval medicine and devotion.

    WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 2018 LADY ELI RETIRED, TO BE BREEDERS= CUP EYES FUTURE HOST SITES, POSSIBLE NEW RACE by Perry Lefko BRED TO WAR FRONT The Board of the Breeders' Cup World Championships will meet later this month to talk about tracks that could potentially host the event from 2019-22 and also discuss the possibility of adding another race. Fred Hertrich III, voted in as the Breeders' Cup Chairman last September, told the TDN that six tracks have expressed tentative interest in hosting the event after this year's Breeders' Cup World Championships at Churchill Downs, November 2-3. All six have been sent letters of tentative interest. Hertrich said when the Breeders' Cup Ltd. hears back from the tracks, it will send out contracts outlining all the details, dates and demands to be considered and see how many respond.
