ment. Wage system. Mine accounting, including a set of reports
and financial statements of a month’s operation of a typical mine and
smelter. Home office accounts. Cost keeping. Ore sales and con-
tracts. Lectures, quiz. Mr. McCaffery.

ASSAYING. II; 3 cr. Lectures and laboratory practice covering the

ciples of physical metallurgy. The use of chemical statics as applied
to metallurgical processes and smelting operations. Development of
the principles of equilibrium in binary, ternary and quaternary sys-
tems. Lectures, quiz. Mr. Oesterle.
