Specifically, the current size frequency distribution of Silverstreams is plotting to the right of the consolidated graph of the deposit ... The PK5 kimberlite body size frequency distribution plotted for samples in this tender is similar to that plotted for samples in the previous tender,... (Canada Newswire)
Bioinformatics technology developed at Argonne provides new insight into microbial activities Mar 15, 2008
The researchers analyzed the frequency distribution of more than 14 million microbial and viral sequences from almost 90 different ecological communities, called metagenomes. By doing so, they hoped to produce a biological profile for the samples taken from diverse environments ranging from underground mines to sea and fresh water. (EurekAlert!)

A histograph is a bar graph of a frequency distribution, in this case based on grades. The move would force university admissions departments to look at Masuk graduates' high school career as a whole, rather than making decisions based on one number, such as class rank. (Monroe Courier, CT)
Star diamond project: Phase 3 Cantuar diamond results Jun 27, 2007
Senior Vice President Exploration and Development, George Read, states: "The 49.50 carat stone is a fragment of a considerably larger stone and the crystal shape suggests that less than 50 percent of the original stone has been recovered. There are multiple breakage surfaces on this stone and the freshest breakage, probably incurred in the processing plant, only accounts for a small loss of carat weight. Fragments comprising 3 carats that are most likely broken from the 49.50 carat stone were... (Canada Newswire)
