 There are several methods employed in
 abama field at the present time for the reduction of the ore and It's separs- ton. Most of the processes are compare lively new and have not yet been per fected. In the reduction of the ore the processes which bring about a gradual reduction in the size of the ore and give the least rubbing of the ore give the best results by yielding a higher percentage of No. 1 flake and less dust A gradual reduction by the use of several sets of rolls is coming mbore into favor.
 At the present time most of the mills are employing the wet process of separa- ton by Notation and all but one of these are using water without oil. The dry method of separation has proven success full for certain parts of the field and will doubtless be more used as an auxiliary in the mills using the wet process as time goes on. The electrostatic process for the separation of mica and graphite has also proven locally successful, and with certain changes in the character of the machine to adapt it to local differ ences of ore could probably be used suc- cessfully. It is difficult to tell which

The zone of weathering in the graphite

 of from 80 to 100 feet In most places 90
 to 60 feet iss the common depth of wealth. ering, and below this the rock becomes

 be found on the higher ridges. The open structure of the rock, the mineral con- tent and topographic situation arc all governing factors which must be taken into consideration.
 At the present stake of the milling in- dustry only the weathered or partly weathered rock is run through the mill, since it is more easily crushed and yields larger flake on account of tho less ate triton attendant upon its reduction. Taking the graphite ore from the open pits is comparatively simple and mex pensive process Occasional shots are necessary to loosen the rock, but pick and l shovel, quarry bar and siedge are largely employed in getting out the rock and re-
 ducing it to sizes suitable for the crush CTS It is of great advantage to open
 the quarry in such places as to avoid ax- cessive stripping and the condition of an overhanging wall.

By WILLIAM F. PRoUTf Geological Survey of Alabama

The crystalline or flake graphite depos- it's of Alabama are best developed in a comparatively narrow belt extending in general nportheast-southwest affection through portions of Clay, Coosa and chll- ton counties, (see accompanying sketch map.
 There are two we'll marked divisions of this belt The one to the northeast ex- tends from the extreme northeast corner of Clas county for about 27 miles i'll a southwesterly direction past Delta. Pyri- ton, Ashland, to line drawn from Coleta to NIillersville. This area widens toward the southwest.
 Between Millerville and Goodwater the flake graphite seems to be largely ab- sent
 The second well defined belt of flake graphite begins at about Goodwater, in NCoosa county and extends at first to the northwest, thence in a westerly direction, gradually changing to the normal south west direction through Coosa county be- tween Weogufka and Hanover, past Dol lar and Coosa river some five miles, into Chiffon county. The graphite rocks probably extend considerably further in
  pletely concealed by the unconsolidated sands and clays of the cretaceous forma- tion.
 The length of this southwest division from Goodwater to little north of Yer bena and Mountain Creek, where it be- comes lost under the later sediments is approximately 33 miles. The area thus has a total length of outcrop, exclusive of the 10-mile strip between Millerville and fxond rrqfpr of ahOIt 60 miles The area has a maximum width, in both divisions, of about four miles. ~
 AREAS EAST OF BELT
 The area thus defined includes prac- tically all of the known important flake graphite deposits. Occurrences in other areas to the east of this belt have been noted, but they seem to be local devel- opments and, as rule, rather low in graphite.
 The rock in which the flake graphite beds occur is mica schist, generally con- sidered of pre-Cambrian age, for the most part highly metamorphosed and much in- truded by both acid and basic igneous rocks, which are for the most part in long dikes, nearly parallel with the trend of the graphite ore bodies but in some eases cutting them at small angles. Some of the pegmatite dikes have excellent com mercial mica and kaolin. Bordering this mica schiSt on the west, for the entire length of the area, occurs green colored sckist, originally a basic igneous rock and designated by the Alabama geological survey the Hillabee schist The graphite area is seldom more than three miles distant from this metamorphosed basic igneous mass, and locally is in contact with it. The gap in the graphite area between Millerville and Goodwater is in
