Even when some multiple use yields (e.g. grazing, recreation, and forestry), are added together their combined yield is substantially less than the annual gross income per acre obtained from mineral industry activity.

MINING ENGINEER HIRED David D. Rabb has been appointed Associate Mining Engineer for the Arizona Bureau of Mines. He has received three degrees from the University of Arizona, including a B.S. in Mining Engineering', 1937 (with distinction); an M.S. in Metallurgy, 1939; and a Professional Degree in Mining Engineering, awarded in 1964. In 1939, he went to work for the Inspiration Consolidated Copper Company as a metallurgist and continued working there until he went into the U.S. Army in 1941. After World War II, he specialized in metallurgical research and plant design at the Battelle Memorial Institute in Columbus, Ohio. He was recalled to active duty in 1952 and, as a Lt. Colonel, served the U.S. Army Mr. David D. Rabb, has recently joined the staff of the Bureau as Associate M in ing Engineer. Page 3 School of Oceanography where he was a research associate involved in a study of global transport of air pollutants and particulate matter from continental sources. He earned the Ph.D. in 1970 at the University of Hawaii. Thesis research called for the design of sampling equipment, collection of samples and development of analytical procedures related to the study of marine atmosphere. AAL will also be involved with training environmental scientists and technicians; studying the interactions between atmospheric pollutants; and analyzing atmospheric pollutants, Freiser said. The 13-member board will be accompanied by 8 or 10 mining association representatives and personnel. Since the grant was made, a laboratory staff has been assembled, equipment selected and ordered and two-way communications with other investigators throughout the world have been established. On Oct. 15, a six-mernber mining association technical committee composed of representatives from across the country will visit the laboratory. AAL consultants are Drs. Michael F. Burke and George S. Wilson, both assistant professors in the analytical division of the UA Chemistry Dept. Freiser and Fernando are also faculty of the division. Ordnance Corps until released from active duty in 1957. For the past 14 years, he has been working for the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, University of California. His work assignments there included metallurgical studies and work associated with underground nuclear test operations. Rabb planned, supervised, and executed drilling and mining re-entry into underground nuclear explosion areas. Rabb is a member of Tau Beta Pi; American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers; American Institute of Chemists; and the American Ordnance Association. He is also a MUSEUM OF NORTHERN registered professional engineer in the ARIZONA states of California, Ohio, and Arizona.
