Amazing State Limestone Sparks New Research Paths
Scientists from the U S Geological Survey examine 17 000 to 40 000 year old ice age pig relatives found in Fulton County Kentucky. The fossils may reveal glacial history and prehistoric mammal knowledge while limestone research in West Virginia explores its use to curb coal pollution with a 67000 dollar federal grant and Byrd support.

Limestone used to curb air pollution eyed in West Virginia study
Science bureau provides 17000 dollars for the research project with 50000 from the Health Education and Welfare department. The study examines using limestone as a pollution control agent in coal plants and to neutralize industrial wastes before entering streams. It outlines processes for absorbing sulfur oxides, fly ash handling, and potential markets for limestone modified by the program.
