|From the abstract: ''"Several nonmetallic mineral-oriented companies have considered possible uses for the ash. These uses include: Abrasives, glass and ceramics, fillers, pozzolan, asphalt admixture, and fertilizer and insecticide carriers. Testing is in progress for a variety of these uses. To date, selling the ash as a souvenir of the eruption of Mount St. Helens has proven to be most profitable."''
