At these localities the thorium occurs as a major constituent or in minor amounts as an impurity in one or more of the following 12 minerals: allanite, columbite, ellsworthite, eschynite, gummite, monazite, orangite, parisite, thorianite, thorite, xenotime, and zircon.  In addition other minerals, such as biotite and sphene, are radioactive and may contain thorium.  Several unidentified columbate minerals with uranium or thorium and uranium as major constituents have been recognized at some localities.  The distribution, by type of deposit, of the 57 thorium occurrences is as follows: lode - 3, lode and placer - 1, granitic rock - 3, granitic rock and related placer - 14, and placer - 26.  Of the four lode occurrences only the radioactive veins at Salmon Bay in southeastern Alaska and the contact metamorphic deposit in the Nixon Fork area of central Alaska warrant further consideration, although insufficient data are available to determine whether these two deposits have commercial possibilities.  The remaining occurrences of thorium-bearing minerals in Alaska are limited to placer deposits and disseminations of accessory minerals in granitic rocks.  In most of these occurrences the thorium-bearing minerals occur in only trace amounts and consequently warrent little further consideration. More data are needed to determine the possibilities of byproduct recovery of thorium-bearing minerals from several of the gold and tin placers.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/tem339","collaboration":"This reports concerns work done on behalf of the Division of Raw Materials of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission","usgsCitation":"Bates, R., and Wedow, H., 1952, Preliminary summary review of thorium-bearing mineral occurrences in Alaska: U.S. Geological Survey Trace Elements Memorandum 339, Report: 28 p.; 1 Plate: 19.61 x 15.26 inches, https://doi.org/10.3133/tem339.","productDescription":"Report: 28 p.; 1 Plate: 19.61 x 15.26 inches","numberOfPages":"30","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":277878,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/tem/0339/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":283103,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/tem/0339/report.pdf"},{"id":283104,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/tem/0339/plate-1.pdf"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ 172.45,51.21 ], [ 172.45,71.39 ], [ -129.99,71.39 ], [ -129.99,51.21 ], [ 172.45,51.21 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"523c1cf8e4b024b60d407375","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bates, Robert G.","contributorId":102867,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bates","given":"Robert G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484242,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wedow, Helmuth Jr.","contributorId":14374,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wedow","given":"Helmuth","suffix":"Jr.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484241,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Samples of the materials collected in the course of the Geological Survey’s investigations for uranium are excluded, but about 500 such samples were analyzed spectrographically for some or all of the same 20 elements sought in the samples that are the subject of this report. Most of the samples were tested only for their radioactivity, but a few were analyzed chemically for uranium. The radioactivity of many of the samples tested in the early screening was determined only qualitatively. Several samples were tested at one time, and if the count obtained did not exceed a predetermined minimum above background, the samples were not tested individually. If the count was more than this minimum, the samples were tested individually to identify the radioactive sample or samples and to obtain a quantitative value for the radioactivity. In general, the rough screening served as a basis for separating samples in which the radioactivity amount to less than 0.003 percent equivalent uranium from those in which it exceeded that amount.

The first method is based on the absorption and accumulation\nof uranium by plants from underlying uranium deposits. To demonstrate\nthis method, several hundred samples of Juniperus monosperma, Atriplex\nconfert ifolia, and Cowania mexicana were collected in the district and\nanalyzed for their uranium content. Plants containing significant\namounts of uranium are considered to indicate mineralized ground.\nThe second method of prospecting is based on the relation of\nselenium-indicator plants of the genera Astragalus and Stanleya to\nmineralized ground. Chemical analyses show that selenium is associated\nwith the uranium and vanadium in the ore deposits. Distribution maps\nof the selenium-indicator plants, Astragalus confertiflorus. A.\nPattersonii, A. Preussii var. arctus, and Stanleya pinnata, are included\nin this report.

Because of the needs of industry for many of these data during the 1951 field season, and in view of the unavoidable delays attendant on publication, the tabular data to be included in these Circulars are hereby placed on open file in simple reproduction form (prepared by Ozalid from photographic negatives) and without explanatory text so that immediate use may be made of the data.</p><p>The tables include data on sections in four states: Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, and Utah; and the tables for each of these states are bound together as individual reports. The tables include name and location of section measured, brief description of geologic setting, acknowledgments for field and analytical work, abstract data on the sections (bed number, rock name, sample number, and thickness), and analytical data on the samples. The analytical data include reports on P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> and acid insoluble for all samples and additional analyses, such as Al<sub>2</sub>0<sub>3</sub>, Fe<sub>7</sub>0<sub>3</sub>, loss on ignition, F, and V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, for selected samples. Spectrographic analyses for a large number of elements are included samples from selected localities, and special analyses have been made of a few samples.</p><p>These reports are placed on open file at the offices of the Geological Survey in Washington, D.

The purpose of the study was to obtain a general evaluation of ground-water recharge, discharge, and storage in the area now irrigated and in the adjacent areas where additional lands are to be irrigated.</p><p>Much of the area covered by this report consists of flat to gently sloping stream terraces and alluvial-bottoms along Nowood, Paintrock, and Medicine Lodge Creeks. The stream-terrace materials consist of fluviatile sand, clay, and gravel. The alluvium is very fine grained and in general has low permeability. The materials underlying the stream terraces and the bottomlands became progressively finer grained and less permeable downstream.</p><p>The bedrock formations underlying the area studied range from the Madison limestone of Mississippian age to the Fort Union formation of Paleocene age. Beds have been folded into several prominent structures which trend northwest-southeast across the area. Several of the formations exposed in the area serve as aquifers and yield water to domestic and stock wells. The most important bedrock aquifers are the Fort Union, Lance, Meeteetee, Mesaverde, Frontier, Cloverly and Morrison formations , the Tensleep sandstone, the Amsden formation, and the Madison limestone. More than 7,000 feet of strata are exposed in the area, the older beds being exposed on the western flank of the Big Horn Range near the eastern end of the area.</p><p>The quality of the water in the project ranges within wide limits. The concentration of dissolved solids in seven samples of ground water ranges from 279 parts per million for a water in the Tensleep sandstone to 4,590 parts per million for a water in the Morrison formation. The hardness as calcium carbonate (CaCO<sub>3</sub>) ranges from 13 to 1,680 parts per million. Limited data on the quality of water in Nowood and Paintrock Creeks indicate that these waters are suitable for irrigation. The water in Paintrock Creek near Tensleep is higher in mineral content and hardness than the water upstream at Hyattville as a result of return flow of the irrigation water that is applied to farm lands above Tensleep.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/cir96","usgsCitation":"Swenson, F.A., Bach, W.K., and Swenson, H.A., 1951, Ground-water resources of the Paintrock irrigation project, Wyoming, with a section on the quality of the water: U.S. Geological Survey Circular 96, Report: ii, 45 p.; Plate: 26.50 x 10.60 inches, https://doi.org/10.3133/cir96.","productDescription":"Report: ii, 45 p.; Plate: 26.50 x 10.60 inches","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":123573,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/circ/1951/0096/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":30391,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/circ/1951/0096/report.pdf","text":"Report","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"Report"},{"id":30390,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/circ/1951/0096/plate-1.pdf","text":"Plate 1","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"Plate 1"},{"id":403240,"rank":2,"type":{"id":36,"text":"NGMDB Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_23947.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}}],"country":"United States","state":"Wyoming","county":"Big Horn County","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -108.052,\n              44.188\n            ],\n            [\n              -107.497,\n              44.188\n            ],\n            [\n              -107.497,\n              44.312\n            ],\n            [\n              -108.052,\n              44.312\n            ],\n            [\n              -108.052,\n              44.188\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a96e4b07f02db65a852","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Swenson, Frank Albert","contributorId":71958,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Swenson","given":"Frank","email":"","middleInitial":"Albert","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":146751,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bach, W.

It is the fourth and last of this series of reports concerning the public water supplies of the State. It gives the available data for each of 142 communities, as follows: The population of the community; the name of the official from whom the information was obtained; the ownership of the waterworks, whether private or municipal; the source of supply, whether ground water or surface water; the amount of water consumed; the facilities for storage; the number of customers served; the character of the chemical and sanitary treatment of the water, if any; and the chemical analyses of the water. Where ground water is used the following also are given. Records of wells, including drillers' logs; character of the pumping equipment; and yield of the wells and water-level records where they are available. Of the 142 public supplies, 133 are obtained from ground water, 5 from surface water, and 4 from a combination of both. The total amount of water . used for public supply in the region averages about 78,000,000 gallons a day. Of this about 61,000,000 gallons a day is ground water and about 17,000,000 gallons a day is surface water. The ground-water resources of the region from which public water supplies are drawn are in rocks that range in age from Permian to Quaternary. The Ogallala formation of Tertiary age (Pliocene), which covers about 35,000 square miles of the High Plains in Texas, is the most important ground-water reservoir in the region. The formation furnishes water for 78 public supplies and for irrigating about 1,000,000 acres of land. The amount of water used for irrigating amounted to about 1,000,000 acre-feet in 1948. The Trinity and Fredericksburg groups of Lower Cretaceous age supply ground water in the western part of the Edwards Plateau, which constitutes an area of more than 22,000 square miles. These formations furnish small to large supplies to 20 municipalities. Sands of the Dockum group of Triassic refurnish meager to moderate supplies of water for 10 municipalities in areas east of the southern part of the High Plains and in the northern Pecos Valley in Texas. Local alluvial, bolson, or volcanic deposits furnish ground water in small to large amounts in scattered localities in the remainder of the region. The Permian rocks are of little importance as a source of ground water for public supply, owing to the highly mineralized water in them. The results of the chemical analyses of 206 samples of water obtained from the public supplies of the region are given in this report. The analyses are reported in parts per million and in equivalents per million for those ions entering into ionic balance. Of the samples analyzed 57 percent contained silica in excess of 20 parts per million; about 9 percent contained iron in excess of 0.3 part per million; 78 percent had hardness in excess of 200 parts per million; about 18 percent contained sulfate in excess of 250 parts per million; 10 percent contained chloride in excess of 250 parts per million; 3 percent contained nitrate in excess of 20 parts per million; 37 percent contained fluoride in excess of 2 parts per million; and 12 percent contained dissolved solids in excess of 1,000 parts per million.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Government Printing Office","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","doi":"10.3133/wsp1106","usgsCitation":"Broadhurst, W., Sundstrom, R., and Weaver, D.E., 1951, Public water supplies in western Texas: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1106, viii, 168 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1106.","productDescription":"viii, 168 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":583,"text":"Texas Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":25744,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1106/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":138103,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1106/report-thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e499ee4b07f02db5bc90a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Broadhurst, W.

These floods were characterized by an extremely late spring breakup of ice, by great flood peaks resulting from snow melt, and by two separate floods in the James River Valley in less than a month.</p>\n<p>The primary cause of the floods was the rapid melting of the season's great accumulation of snow, one of the deepest on record. In the period between the normal spring breakup time and the actual breakup of river ice, considerably more snow accumulated. Some of this was melted by a few warm days and the melt was stored as water behind snow barriers in upland watercourses. A sudden increase in temperature beginning April 13 and lasting until most of the snow had been converted into runoff resulted in rapid rise of flood waters.</p>\n<p>Tributary flood waters made the Missouri River from Mobridge to Yankton, S. Dak., rise to near the maximum recorded discharge. At Sioux City, Iowa, the 1950 flood peak-discharge exceeded any previously recorded by the Geological Survey.</p>\n<p>The center of the flooded area west of the Missouri River lay in the Cannonball River Basin which had the greatest water content of snow on the ground just before the ice broke up Floods north and south of this area were relatively less intense. Scattered records of the Cannonball River and a study of newspaper accounts and other information show that the flood of 1950 was greatest since the area was settled. Flooding of the James River at Jamestown was the greatest since 1897, and the floods of April and May 1950 were of nearly the same stage.</p>\n<p>Itemized flood damages were made by Federal and State agencies, and relief was sent to the area by the Department of the Army and the American National Red Cross.</p>\n<p>Data include records of stage and discharge at 54 gaging stations for the period of

The deposits chosen for drilling were two of the more promising talc deposits associated with ultramafic rocks of several that had been mapped earlier by the Geological Survey, but could not be evaluated accurately because critical data were lacking that could be obtained only by sub-surface exploration.</p><p>The Rousseau talc prospect is in Cambridge township, Lamoille County, Vermont. Surface rights are owned by L. and N. N. Porter; mineral rights are owned by Eastern Magnesia Talc Co. Three drill holes encountered no talc; the other five penetrated from 2 to 110 feet of talc ore. The deposit lies on the west limb of the Green Mountain anticlinorium. The country rock consists of quartz-chlorite-sericite schist and chlorite-albite schist. The schistosity strikes slightly west of north and dips 20° - 40° to the west. The talc deposit is roughly lenticular, and although generally concordant in detail with the schistosity of the country rock, is slightly cross-cutting in overall relationship. The entire deposit is composed of Tit (talc-carbonate rock) and steatite, out is presumably derived from ultramafic igneous rooks which were first serpentinized. The dimensions of the lens are about 700 feet by 500 feet by 130 feet. The talc is of good quality and is suitable, either as a mine run product or as a flotation concentrate, for most industrial uses other than industrial steatite. No pencil stock was encountered.</p><p>The Barnes hill talc prospect is in Waterbury township, Washington County, Vermont. Surface rights are divided among Donald P. and Glenola Brown, John Barnes, and Eastern Magnesia Talc Co. One drill hole at Barnes hill was barren. The other six penetrated about 20 to 140 feet of talc ore. The deposit lies on the east limb of the Green Mountain anticlinorium. The country rock outside of the ultramafic rock body consists of quartz-chlorite-sericite schist, chlorite-albite schist; and chlorite amphibolite, which strike generally about N, 20° E. and dip steeply to the east. The ultramafic body is elliptical in plan, about 1,600 feet long and 360 feet wide. The vertical dimension is unknown. The original ultramafic rock has been almost completely serpentinized and is extensively altered to grit and steatite. The talc ore is somewhat irregularly distributed throughout the ultramafic body, but it is possible to delineate with considerable confidence portions of the body that consist predominantly of ore. The largest ore bodies are in the eastern and northern parts of the ultramafic body. The ore contains more or less admixed serpentine, and so is only of intermediate to fairly good color (whiteness). It is suitable for many industrial uses in which purity and high whiteness are not necessary. No pencil stock was seen.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/ofr5147","usgsCitation":"Chidester, A., 1951, Diamond-drill exploration of the Rousseau talc prospect, Cambridge, Vermont, and the Barnes Hill prospect, Waterbury, Vermont: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 51-47, 25 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr5147.","productDescription":"25 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":146806,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1951/0047/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":464290,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1951/0047/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"Vermont","city":"Cambridge, Waterbury","otherGeospatial":"Barnes Hill Talc Prospect, Rousseau Talc Prospect","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -72.93708688666885,\n              44.679266350635686\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.93708688666885,\n              44.25416576861355\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.69592514555329,\n              44.25416576861355\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.69592514555329,\n              44.679266350635686\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.93708688666885,\n              44.679266350635686\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a9be4b07f02db65db41","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Chidester, A.H.","contributorId":42940,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chidester","given":"A.H.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":167092,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Comprehensive compilation, synthesis, and evaluation of the data resulting from these studies were initiated by DOI in 1992. Soils and ground water in irrigated areas of the West can contain high concentrations of selenium because of (1) residual selenium from the soil's parent rock beneath irrigated land; (2) selenium derived from rocks in mountains upland from irrigated land by erosion and transport along local drainages, and (3) selenium brought into the area in surface water imported for irrigation. Application of irrigation water to seleniferous soils can dissolve and mobilize selenium and create hydraulic gradients that cause the discharge of seleniferous ground water into irrigation drains. Given a source of selenium, the magnitude of selenium contamination in drainage-affected aquatic ecosystems is strongly related to the aridity of the area and the presence of terminal lakes and ponds. Marine sedimentary rocks and deposits of Late Cretaceous or Tertiary age are generally seleniferous in the Western United States. Depending on their origin and history, some Tertiary continental sedimentary deposits also are seleniferous. Irrigation of areas associated with these rocks and deposits can result in concentrations of selenium in water that exceed criteria for the protection of freshwater aquatic life. \r\n\r\nGeologic and climatic data for the Western United States were evaluated and incorporated into a geographic information system (GIS) to produce a map identifying areas susceptible to irrigation-induced selenium contamination. Land is considered susceptible where a geologic source of selenium is in or near the area and where the evaporation rate is more than 2.5 times the precipitation rate. In the Western United States, about 160,000 square miles of land, which includes about 4,100 square miles (2.6 million acres) of land irrigated for agriculture, has been identified as being susceptible. Biological data were used to evaluate the reliability of the map. In 12 of DOI's 26 study areas, concentrations of selenium measured in bird eggs were elevated sufficiently to significantly reduce hatchability of the eggs. The GIS map identifies 9 of those 12 areas. Deformed bird embryos having classic symptoms of selenium toxicosis were found in four of the study areas, and the map identifies all four as susceptible to irrigation-induced selenium contamination. The report describes the geography, geology, and ground-water resources of the Dutch Flats area in Scotts Bluff and Sioux Counties, Nebr. The area comprises about 60 square miles and consists predominantly of relatively flat-lying terraces. Farming is the principal occupation in the area. The farm lands are irrigated largely from surface water; ground water is used only as a supplementary supply during drought periods. The climate in the area is semiarid, and the mean annual precipitation is about 16 inches. \r\n\r\nThe rocks exposed in the Dutch Flats area are of Tertiary sad Quaternary age. A map showing the areas of outcrop of the rock formations is included in the report. Sufficient unconfined ground water for irrigation supplies is contained in the deposits of the .third terrace, and wells that yield 1,000 to 2,000 gallons a minute probably could be developed. \r\n\r\nThe depth to water in the area ranges from a few feet to about 80 feet sad averages about 30 feet. The depth to water varies throughout the year; it is least in the late summer when the recharge from irrigation is greatest, sad it is greatest in the early spring before irrigation is begun. A map showing the depth to water in September 1949 is included in the report. \r\n\r\nThe ground-water reservoir is recharged by seepage from irrigation canals and laterals, by seepage from irrigation water applied to the farms, and, to a much lesser extent, by precipitation.

All the Paleozoic (?) and Cretaceous (?) rocks and parts of the Mesozoic (?),Cretaceous and Tertiary, and Tertiary (?) rocks have been mapped as a unit because they are so intensely faulted that detailed mapping was not practical. Rocks older than Quaternary form the mountain ranges bordering the Ranegras Plain. Quaternary alluvium underlies the broad, gently sloping valley floor to depths of generally a few hundred feet, locally more. Well logs indicate that the underlying Tertiary (?) alluvium exceeds 1,100 feet in thickness.\r\n\r\nThe structure of the area is controlled by faulting typical of the Basin and Range province, but the major faults are covered by alluvium and are inferred from topographic features.\r\n\r\nGround water occurs in Quaternary and Tertiary (?) alluvium and the best aquifers are in sand and gravel of the Quaternary alluvium. Ground-water movement is, in general, to the northwest.\r\n\r\nRecharge to the aquifers is predominantly from stream flow resulting from heavy rains. There is also minor or unevaluated recharge from underflow from Butler Valley to the east, and\u0014since 1948\u0014seepage from irrigation.\r\n\r\nDischarge is by pumping and by natural processes of underflow and evapotranspiration.
