CHAPTER Xn.
ASPHALTIC SANDS AND LIMESTONES.
Kentucky. — Sands are found in Carter and Boyd Counties in the northeastern part of Kentucky and in the counties of Brecken- ridge, Grayson, Edmonson, Warren, and Logan in the western part of the State. The geological relations of these sands and the manner of their occurrence is described in great detail by Eldridge.i In the present place it will only be necessary to show the nature of the sands and that of the bitumen with which they are impreg- nat
...ed in order to determine their availability for paving purposes.
In a general way it may be said that the sands are all com- posed of loose grains which fall to pieces on the extraction of the bitumen and are in no case sandstone. The bitumen impregna- ting the sand is not a solid one, but consists of a maltha which pulls out to a long thread at ordinary temperature or, in rare instances, after extraction has a penetration as low as 60^. The bitumen from the Green River sand which was extracted with carbon disulphide had the following characteristics: BITUMEN EXTRACTED FROM BITUMINOUS SAND FROM THE GREEN RIVER DEPOSIT, KENTUCKY.
