SUMMARY:WMMI Speakers’ Bureau Lecture with Daniel Kile
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Ore Microscopy\nEver since ore minerals have been mined\, there has been a need to identify them and discern their chemistry and associations. This information is essential to the mining industry to assess the value of the ore\, and to determine the most efficient means of concentrating the mineral of economic interest. This lecture will highlight some of the important observations and corresponding properties that can be evaluated with an ore microscope\, and give an overview of the basic equipment required to do so.\nThe reflected light/ore microscope used for ore microscopy was developed in the 1920s. In contrast to a transmitted light microscope that is used to examine rock thin sections\, an ore microscope utilizes vertically incident light to examine the metallic\, opaque minerals that are of economic importance. Optical properties of reflectance\, bireflectance\, and anisotropism\, as well as physical properties of cleavage\, twinning\, internal reflections\, and hardness\, as can be observed in an ore microscope\, will be summarized in this lecture\, in addition to a discussion and demonstration of some of the required equipment.\nDespite the advent of X-ray diffraction and microbeam techniques to determine quantitative chemistry\, the utility of the ore microscope has not been rendered obsolete. Interpretation of replacement and weathering processes\, textures\, and intergrowths can significantly affect the outcome of ore beneficiation – and only visual observation with polarized–reflected light can provide that information.\nThis will be a one-to-two hour lecture\, and will assume a basic knowledge of mineralogy. \nLecture Outline:\nThe ore microscope: Construction\, light path\nReflected light: Incident/bright field vs. oblique/dark field illumination\nPolarized light: Plane and crossed polars\nOre mounts & ore leveling press\nBasic Properties: Color\, reflectance\, hardness\nOptical Properties: Observations in plane polarized light (bireflectance\, cleavage); observations in partly crossed polarized light (anisotropism\, twinning\, internal reflections)\nGeneral Observations: Weathering/alteration\, replacement\, exsolution\, deformation\nMineral groups: Native elements\, sulfides\, sulfosalts\, oxides\, arsenides\nResources for ore mineral identification:  Texts\, charts    \nAuthor Biography\nDaniel Kile was formerly a Research Geochemist with the U.S. Geological Survey\, and currently is Scientist Emeritus with that organization\, as well as Adjunct Faculty at the Hooke College of Applied Sciences (Westmont\, Illinois)\, where he teaches Optical Crystallography. He has taught Ore Microscopy at both the Colorado School of Mines and at the Hooke College of Applied Sciences\, and was previously Adjunct Faculty at the Colorado School of Mines where he taught a semester class in Optical Mineralogy. He has written nearly 150 articles and abstracts in the fields of mineralogy and environmental sciences\, published in professional journals and magazines\, and has been a guest lecturer at numerous earth sciences organizations over the past 40 years.  \nOnly $5 per person! Free to Museum Members.\nPlease RSVP to 719-488-0880 or email rsvp@wmmi.org

SUMMARY:Exhibit Lecture by Mindy S. Vogel
DESCRIPTION:On April 13\, Mindy S. Vogel\, a Forest Service geologist\, will present a lecture entitled “Rock\, Paper\, Forest Service: A Summary of Mining and Permitting on Forest Service Lands.” This lecture is in pairing with the Western Museum of Mining & Industry’s new exhibit\, “Minerals You Use Every Day from the National Forests.” Light refreshments will be offered. The museum requests that those interested in attending please contact the museum to reserve a spot. Please call 719-488-0880 or respond by e-mail at rsvp@wmmi.org. \nThis exhibit consists of an interactive component from the National Museum of Forest Service History and a selection of minerals from WMMI’s collection. Whether we realize it or not\, modern civilization is heavily dependent on minerals for everything from computers and electricity to toothpaste and makeup. This exhibit highlights this importance and demonstrates how America’s national forests help supply the country’s mineral needs. This exhibit will be open through June 3.

SUMMARY:“A Tale of Two Husteds” lecture by Jack Anthony
DESCRIPTION:The Palmer Lake Historical Society and the Western Museum of Mining & Industry are pleased to announce the second presentation of “A Tale of Two Husteds” by Jack Anthony!\nAbout six miles south of Palmer Lake\, East Husted and West Husted sprang up as railroad “tank towns” for the Denver & Rio Grande and the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe railroads. The two Husted depots midway between Colorado Springs and Palmer Lake became a place to pick up passengers and shipments of agricultural products. Both were thriving communities until the early 1920s. Then\, development of the United States Air Force Academy in the mid-1950s caused the remaining buildings to be either moved or demolished. Only the Reynolds Ranch House remains\, still in its original location east of Interstate 25 on the property of the Western Museum of Mining & Industry on Colorado Springs’ north side.\nJack Anthony is a graduate of the Air Force Academy. For almost 40 years\, he has served in various military\, intelligence\, and NASA roles as an engineer\, educator\, leader\, and operator. Jack successfully spear-headed the effort to have the Palmer Lake Star included on the State Register of Historic Properties. His presentation includes both sides and a short video.
