Cobalt mineralogy at the Iron Creek deposit, Idaho cobalt belt, USA: Implications for domestic critical mineral production

Testing a Blowing Snow Model Against Distributed Snow Measurements at Upper Sheep Creek, Idaho, USA

In this paper a physically-based snow transport model (SnowTran-3D) was used to simulate snow drifting over a 30 m grid, and was compared to detailed snow water equivalence (SWE) surveys on three dates within a small 0.25 km 2 subwatershed, Upper Sheep Creek. Two precipitation scenarios and two vegetation scenarios were used to carry out four snow transport model runs in order to: (1) evaluate ...

Iron metabolism in the cobalt-polycythemic rat.

Although the finding that cobalt can produce a polycythemia in the rat, is well known (l), the mechanism of the hematopoietic action is still obscure. Orten (2) measured the serum bilirubin concentration of normal and cobalt-polycythemic rats, from which he concluded that passive accumulation of red blood cells as a result of a diminished rate of destruction did not occur. Copp (3) found that i...

Upper Critical Field for Cobalt Oxide Superconductors

Motivated by the recent discovery of the cobalt oxide superconductors, we calculate the temperature dependence of the upper critical field on a triangular lattice. Using the lattice version of the Gor’kov equations we investigate how the applied magnetic field affects singlet and triplet types of superconductivity. We show that in a wide range of model parameters not only Zeeman coupling, but a...

Exposure to cobalt in the production of cobalt and cobalt compounds and its effect on the heart.

AIMS To investigate whether exposure to cobalt in cobalt plants has any measurable effect on the cardiovascular system. METHODS Occupational, cross sectional study, using a self administered questionnaire, blood pressure measurement, electrocardiography, and laboratory tests in which 203 male workers with at least one year of exposure to cobalt and 94 unexposed controls participated. Echocard...
