  The Potential for Beneficial Reuse of Coal Fly Ash in Southwest Virginia Mining Environments
Ash from bituminous coals of the eastern U.S. is generally higher in Fe, K and S, and lower in Mg and Ca, than that from western sub-bituminous and lignitic coals.
The greatest potential use for fly ash in mining environments is as either a bulk-blended liming agent in acid-forming coal refuse piles or as a surficial soil amendment for rocky and acidic mine soils.
Application of fly ash as a soil amendment should be limited to a maximum loading rate of 10% or approximately 100 tons per acre, unless specific measures are taken to limit salt and B phytotoxicity such as pre-washing the ash or allowing the ash treated soil to leach before revegetation.

 Global Volcanism Program | Volcanic Activity Reports | SI / USGS Weekly Volcanic Activity Report
Ash fell around the villages of Salili and Beong and the lava avalanche traveled to the E and W. The volcano remained at Alert Level 2 (on a scale of 1-4).
Ash fell to the N of the volcano.
Ash was deposited on the volcano's W slope, including in the villages of Lehi, Mini, Kinali, and Hiung.

Long-term small-to-moderate ash eruptions beginning in that year were later accompanied by lava-dome growth and pyroclastic flows that forced evacuation of the southern half of the island and ultimately destroyed the capital city of Plymouth, causing major social and economic disruption.
New pyroclastic-flow deposits were emplaced towards the E, down Tar River as far as the old coastline, and to the S in the White River Valley as far as 50 m short of the coast on the new pyroclastic delta.
On 8 December a low-level plume of ash (~1.8 km a.s.l.) was visible extending ~140 km to the W of the volcano.

A large ash cloud from the event was blown to the northwest by strong winds.
Ash from this event also fell on the western side of the island in the areas of Cork Hill, Old Towne, Olveston, Salem and the Belham Valley.
Plumes of ash from this eruption have reached heights of 40,000 ft (12,000 m) and dropped ash on the islands of Nevis and Antigua, which are over 25 miles (40 km) away.

 Mount St. Helens in 1980, by the USGS
This report describes some of the effects caused by ash deposition in rivers east of the volcano, and the effects of massive debris-avalanche and mudflow deposits in rivers draining to the west and south.
The high nitrogen concentrations cannot be as easily correlated to the ash as were the high sulfate and chloride concentrations because the ash was not analyzed for organic nitrogen.
The compositional variations in the Cowlitz River at Castle Rock were similar to those observed in the Toutle River; however, the overall effect was reduced because of dilution by flow from the upper Cowlitz.

The fly ash and soil beneath it, which is drying on the ground, is being dug up by the company today with excavating equipment and dumped on plant property.
Removal of the drying fly ash, several feet thick in places, is both a race against time and a sensitive operation as the disturbed ash is carried downwind.
Coal fly ash must be deposited in a specially constructed lined wet basin and it does not seem that PPL has an acceptable basin of sufficient size to safely hold the ash being cleaned up and the ash being produced by the operating coal burning units," said Carluccio.

 Arctic: Extending the late holocene White River ash distribution, Northwestern Canada   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The White River ash layer is one of the more northerly of the Holocene tephras present in western Canada, and was first noted by Schwatka in 1883 (Schwatka, 1898).
Data were compiled from published accounts of the ash in the Mackenzie Valley, from unpublished sources, and from field surveys to revise the distribution of the eastern lobe of the White River ash (Fig.
The ash in peatlands at the easternmost sites is less than 5 mm thick and highly discontinuous, suggesting that the true eastern margin may be approached.

Recovery of valuable products from fly ash may help offset in-mine disposal costs, and represents a component of an overall scheme of fly ash processing where fly ash is regarded as a potential resource rather than a waste.
The compositions of the ashes were typical of class F fly ashes, with the major components of both fly ashes being silica and alumina.
The other major difference between the ashes that was pertinent to this project was the loss on ignition (LOI) which is an indicator of the unburned carbon in the fly ash.

 Ash Avenue Bridge - Tempe, Arizona   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Although Roosevelt Dam was completed in 1911, flooding of the Salt River was still a fairly common experience, and periodic repairs (1916, 1920,and 1925) were necessary to maintain safe conditions on the bridge.
In 1928 the Arizona Highway Department recommended the construction of a new river crossing and in 1931, when the new structure (HPS-226, Mill Avenue Bridge) was complete, the 1911 bridge was closed to all but pedestrian traffic.
The Ash Avenue Bridge was demolished in 1991 because it would have cost too much to repair the structural damage that it had suffered.

 Ice Cores Disagree On Origin Of White River Ash Deposit   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Researchers have dated the two White River Ash deposits to two eruptions in the last two millennia - one in approximately 803 A.D. and the other in around 63 A.D — that were thought to come from the same volcano.
If so, those blasts would have deposited layers of volcanic ash at the top of the mountain, including on the ice present at the time.
Thompson believes both the stones at the crater rim and the pebble layers are remnants of those ice sheets.

 Ice Cores Disagree On Origin Of White River Ash Deposit   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Ohio State University scientists had expected to find a thick layer of volcanic tephra - evidence of a massive historic eruption - near the bottom of core they drilled between Mount Bona and Mount Churchill, both ancient volcanoes, in southeast Alaska’s St.
“Without a visible ash layer in the core, we don’t believe that Mount Churchill could have been the source for that deposit.” explained Lonnie Thompson, professor of geological sciences and researcher with the Byrd Polar Research Center.
The researcher’s conviction lies with the analysis of six cores they recovered in 2003 from an ice field in a saddle between the two peaks.
