That possession that the law annexes to the legal title or ownership of property, when there is a right to the immediate actual possession of such property, but no actual possession.
Industry:Mining
That power developed with all auxiliary equipment (such as pump and fans) attached; it is consequently lower than flywheel horsepower.
Industry:Mining
That pressure for a given temperature at which the vapor and the liquid can exist in stable equilibrium.
Industry:Mining
That quantity of heat evolved when two liquids that do not react together are mixed. It is calculated from the temperature change and the specific heat of the mixture, and expressed in gram-calories per gram of mixture.
Industry:Mining
That resulting directly or indirectly from the permanent physical changes caused by vitrification.
Industry:Mining
That section of a rigid side-framed conveyor that is (1) adjustable in length, (2) immediately adjacent to the tail section, and (3) so designed that it forms a continuous framing and cover for the return belt when the tail section is pulled back to tension the belt.

That spoil created from the initial excavation of a pit or pits which is placed upon the surface of adjacent lands. The term does not include spoil from subsequent excavations, which is placed in previously excavated pits.
Industry:Mining
That stage in the cooling of a magma during which the residual fluid is strongly enriched in water and other volatiles. The exact limits of the stage are variously defined by different authors, in terms of phase assemblage, temperature, composition, and/or vapor pressure; most definitions consider it as the last stage of igneous activity, coming at a later time, and hence at a lower temperature, than the pegmatitic stage.
Industry:Mining
That stage in the cooling of a magma during which the solid and gaseous phases are in equilibrium.
Industry:Mining
