PETROGRAPHIC EXAMINATION OF CONCRETE AGGREGATE, AGGREGATE BENEFICIATION INVESTIGATIONS, SAN LUIS DAM, CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT, CALIFORNIA,

Abstract

Concrete aggregates from Panoche Creek deposit (N 1/2 Section 15, T 15 S, R 12 E, MDM) were processed for beneficiation in the Structural and Concrete Branch by the methods of heavy liquid separation, by autogenous abrasion, and by heavy media separation using the laboratory cone separator. The sampls were petrographically examined to evaluate the degree of beneficiation attained by the various methods. This report is a summary of the results of the petrographic evaluation of the beneficiated samples. (Author)
