50. lappuse - ... any deposits of oil shale belonging to the United States and the surface of so much of the public lands containing such deposits, or land adjacent thereto, as may be required for the extraction and reduction of the leased minerals, under such rules and regulations, not inconsistent with such sections, as he may prescribe.
51. lappuse - Wyoming," approved August 1, 1912 (Thirty-seventh Statutes at Large, page 1346), shall be subject to disposition only in the form and manner provided in this Act, except as to valid claims existent at date of the passage of this Act and thereafter maintained in compliance with the laws under which initiated? which claims may be perfected under such laws, including discovery.
150. lappuse - It is just at this juncture that we have made a discovery that has disclosed what is undoubtedly one of our greatest mineral resources — one that should supply the needs of the war, and that for generations to come will enable the United States to maintain its supremacy over the rest of the world as a producer of crude oil and gasoline and incidentally of ammonia as a highly valuable by-product. We have discovered that we possess mountain ranges of rock that will yield billions of barrels of oil.
18. lappuse - The explanation for this lies in the fact that crude oil is not the only product of value that may be obtained. The ammonium sulphate is also valuable. If this is obtained in large quantity, as in the case of shales now being treated, the total result in crude oil, plus ammonium sulphate, may be economically profitable. The following series of products are secured from the Scotch shales : 1. Permanent gases used for fuel under retorts.
50. lappuse - ... extraction and reduction of the leased minerals, under such rules and regulations, not inconsistent with this Act, as he may prescribe ; that no lease hereunder shall exceed five thousand one hundred and twenty acres of land, to be described by the legal subdivisions of the public-land surveys, or if unsurveyed, to be surveyed by the United States, at the expense of the applicant, in accordance with regulations to be prescribed by the Secretary of the Interior.
51. lappuse - That the deposits of coal, phosphate, sodium, oil, oil shale, and gas, herein referred to, in lands valuable for such minerals, including lands and deposits described in the joint resolution entitled " Joint resolution authorizing the Secretary of the Interior to permit the continuation of coal mining operations on certain lands in Wyoming...
51. lappuse - ... year, at the rate of 50 cents per acre per annum, for the lands included in the lease, the rental paid for any one year to be credited against the royalties accruing for that year; such royalties to be subject to readjustment at the end of each...
51. lappuse - Secretary may, in his discretion, waive the payment of any royalty and rental during the first five years of any lease : Provided, That any person having a valid claim to such minerals under existing laws on January 1, 1919, shall, upon the relinquishment of such claim, be entitled to a lease under the provisions of this section for such area of the land relinquished as shall not exceed the maximum area authorized by this section to be leased to an individual or corporation: Provided, however, That...
94. lappuse - The average amount of ammonium sulphate produced from the shale by steam distillation was about two and one-half times the amount obtained from the same samples by dry distillation, thus providing a factor for the conversion of the figure for ammonium sulphate by dry distillation to ammonium sulphate which may be obtained with steam distillation (the method practiced in the oil-shale industry of Scotland and France). In the six samples tested an average of 37.8 per cent of the nitrogen in the shale...
50. lappuse - For the privilege of mining, extracting, and disposing of the oil or other minerals covered by a lease under this section...
