It consists of a plain of low relief that lies not far above sea‐level, and is a part of the West Gulf Coastal Plain. A part of the District is shown in Figure 1.
Large quantities of ground‐water are pumped in the Houston District from a succession of beds of sand that occur between 300 and 1,900 feet below the surface. These sands are interbedded with relatively impermeable clays. The formations range in age from Miocene to Recent and were deposited during several cycles of marine and continental deposition. They may be classified into several zones which are predominantly clay or predominantly sand, but in which the individual beds at most horizons can not be traced very far. Most of the beds interfinger and grade into one another laterally and vertically in short distances, the thinner beds in many places changing character or pinching out within a few hundred feet. The formations dip to the southeastward, the dip ranging from about 35 feet to the mile in the older formations to about 20 feet to the mile in the younger. In the outcrop‐areas of the formations, and for considerable distances down the dip, the sediments are in general dominantly sandy. Far to the southeastward, in the direction of the Gulf, clay predominates.

Parowan Valley is about 30 miles long and has a general northeasterly trend; Cedar City Valley lies west and south of Parowan Valley, is somewhat larger, and has a more nearly north‐south trend. Great accumulations of boulders, gravel, sand, and clay have been brought into both valleys by the streams that drain the surrounding highlands, and the valleys have become topographic basins whose lowest parts are occupied by lakes or dry alkali flats, rimmed on all sides with the alluvial fans and cones that have been formed by the streams tributary to the valleys. Ground‐water occurs principally in these unconsolidated sediments, and in both valleys a large proportion of the irrigated lands is dependent upon water pumped from wells.

This region contains Cretaceous strata, largely calcareous, which grade upward into Tertiary volcanics, locally without break. The strata are cut by numerous intrusions, largely alkalic, and are extensively folded and faulted.Many of the lodes are near the base of the impervious Del Rio clay, some at higher horizons, and a few in intrusive masses. The solutions penetrated only along open passageways, such as major fractures or joints in zones of tension, and, especially at horizons above the Del Rio, in fractures related to fault zones.The quicksilver is believed to have been brought in by alkali sulphide solutions. Most other constituents that may once have been present in the solutions had been separated earlier. Precipitation resulted largely from mingling with groundwater. The comparatively low temperature and pressure at the shallow levels where groundwater was present aided the precipitation. As the then-existing zone of groundwater circulation has since been partly exposed by erosion, the lodes are necessarily rather close to the present surface. The gangue minerals, particularly the calcite, are believed to have been derived mainly from the sedimentary rocks with some addition of material from deep sources. The relation of the widespread bitumen to genesis is puzzling here, as in many other quicksilver deposits. Weathering is of slight economic importance. Many minerals that resemble supergene products, including the quicksilver chlorides, are thought to have resulted here from original deposition within the zone of vadose water.

Where the pumps are near a stream that has a flow during the irrigation‐season, either because of normal ground‐water flow or because of return flow from surface‐water irrigation, the pumping is likely to diminish the stream‐flow. Conversely, diversions of water from a stream may diminish the supply of wells that were formerly supplied indirectly by seepage from the stream, but the problem involved is of a different nature than its converse and will not be discussed here.

The possible contamination of the lake waters from oil-well brines disposed through a well 3.75 miles north of the lake, and other effects of brine disposal, are considered.
The investigation was made at the request of Frank Raab, member of the Oklahoma Planning and Resources Board, and Don McBride, Chief Engineer of the Division of Water Resources who has the responsibility of preventing contamination of water supplies in Oklahoma.
Field work was done July 5 and 6, 1941, by Robert H. Dott, Director of the Oklahoma Geological Survey; C.G. Lalicker, Department of Geology, University of Oklahoma; and S.L. Schoff, Assistant Geologist in the Ground Water Division, Water Resources Branch, of the U.S. Geological Survey.
Lalicker spent both days studying the rocks exposed in the vicinity and measuring their thickness. A copy of the composite section measured by him is attached. Dott and Schoff spent one day collecting the well information summarized in Table 1, and one day with Lalicker on the stratigraphy.

Sulfuric acid is used to acidify the samples to reduce the interference of sulfate. The pH is accurately controlled to give the most sensitive comparisons. Most natural waters can be analyzed by the modified procedure without resorting to correction curves. The fluoride content of waters containing less than 500 parts per million of sulfate, 500 parts per million of bicarbonate, and 1000 parts per million of chloride may be determined within a limit of about 0.1 part per million when a 100-ml. sample is used.","language":"English","publisher":"American Chemical Society Publications","doi":"10.1021/i560100a012","issn":"00964484","usgsCitation":"Lamar, W., and Seegmiller, C., 1941, Determination of small quantities of fluoride in water: A modified zirconium-alizarin method: Industrial And Engineering Chemistry Analytical Edition, v. 13, no. 12, p. 901-902, https://doi.org/10.1021/i560100a012.","productDescription":"2 p.","startPage":"901","endPage":"902","numberOfPages":"2","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220959,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"13","issue":"12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2002-05-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059ffc8e4b0c8380cd4f3c7","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lamar, W.L.","contributorId":52549,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lamar","given":"W.L.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":360193,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Seegmiller, C.G.","contributorId":62083,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Seegmiller","given":"C.G.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":360194,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}} ,{"id":70006574,"text":"70006574 - 1941 - The age and growth of fresh-water fishes","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2014-07-01T10:02:28","indexId":"70006574","displayToPublicDate":"1940-01-01T10:00:55","publicationYear":"1941","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":12,"text":"Conference publication"},"seriesTitle":{"id":423,"text":"A symposium on hydrobiology","active":false,"publicationSubtype":{"id":12}},"title":"The age and growth of fresh-water fishes","docAbstract":"No abstract available.","conferenceTitle":"A symposium on hydrobiology","conferenceDate":"1940-09-04T00:00:00","conferenceLocation":"University of Wisconsin","language":"English","publisher":"University of Wisconsin Press","publisherLocation":"Madison, WI","usgsCitation":"Van Oosten, J., 1941, The age and growth of fresh-water fishes: A symposium on hydrobiology, p. 196-205.","productDescription":"p. 196-205","numberOfPages":"10","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":289293,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53b3d872e4b07c5f79a7f363","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Van Oosten, John","contributorId":23479,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Van Oosten","given":"John","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":354787,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ]}
