The Viability of the Catastrophism Theory in Dinosaur Extinction
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page consideration of the theory of catastrophism in relation to the dinosaur extinction which occurred during the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods. Weighs the geologic evidence of such an event against the environmental effects which would have occurred to contend that such an event would have had much further effects than on the dinosaurs alone. If catastrophism resulted in the extinction of the dinosaurs it would have resulted in widespread extinction of other species as well. Concludes that this fact discounts the validity of catastrophism and suggests that gradual environmental changes and the effects of competition with other animals led to this extinction. Bibliography
lists 10 sources.

The Volcanoes of Hawaii
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page report discusses Hawaii’s
volcanoes and their geological features, age, and historical
patterns. The various stages of development of the volcanoes
also reflect the development of the Hawaiian islands. While there
is rarely great destruction or loss of life related to Hawaii’s
active volcanoes, it should be noted that Kilauea’s continuous
state of eruptions have, since 1983, resulted in 1.3 cubic
kilometers of rock, more than the volume created in the 1980
blast at Mount St. Helens. Obviously, the volcanoes of Hawaii
still have an impressive impact. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

The Zinc Industry in New Brunswick, Canada
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing the zinc industry in New Brunswick, Canada. Tutorial language is inserted throughout in square brackets to aid in writing process for customer. The zinc industry in New Brunswick, Canada is the largest in the world by volume and is part of the larger mining and mineral production industry which contributes over $790 million annually to the province. The Brunswick mine, near Bathurst, is owned and operated by Noranda and is the largest producer of zinc and lead concentrate. Despite the fact that a mine’s average life span is approximately 10 years, Noranda and the province have dedicated funding for additional exploration in addition to Noranda constantly improving their production processes to increase their zinc yield (currently at 32% of the total Canadian reserves). This investment and dedication of the province as well as the private corporation of Noranda should continue to keep New Brunswick as a major producer in the zinc industry with an initial estimation of an increase in revenue expected at 6% for the year 2003 alone.
