Grade and Tonnage Relationships Among Copper Deposits
D.A. Singer, Dennis P. Cox, Lawrence J. Drew
1975, Professional Paper 907-A
Three types of copper deposits-porphyry, strata-bound, and massive sulfide-are described, and the distributions of tonnages and grades for 267 deposits are compared with normal and lognormal frequency distributions. The relationships between grades and tonnages are analyzed by examining the correlation coefficients of these variables. Conclusions reached include the following: (1)...

Copper localities that merit geological investigation are found in the western Chasai District, in North Waziristan Agency, and in the Salt Range in Mianwali and Sargodha Districts. No high-grade deposits have been .reported from these ,areas and if deposits are developed they will likely be low-grade, high-tonnage, disseminated deposits. Those...

Ground water in the Grand (Neosho) River basin, Kansas and Oklahoma
Robert B. Morton, Stuart W. Fader
1975, Open-File Report 75-366
Ground water in the Grand (Neosho) River basin occurs in both consolidated rocks and unconsolidated deposits. Water for domestic and stock supplies generally can be obtained from wells in either of the above deposits. Water for municipal, industrial, and irrigation supplies generally can be obtained in limited quantities from the...

Sulfur, fluorspar, magnesite, and aluminous chromite in Pakistan
Raymond H. Nagell
1975, Open-File Report 75-496
Reports and analyses on elemental sulfur, fluorspar, magnesite, and aluminous chromite were reviewed for the purpose of identifying and categorizing the known deposits, and to indicate those which seem to merit further study on the basis of available information. General conclusions drawn from the study are: (1) Although aluminous chromite...

Estimate of sediment discharges, Santa Ana River at Santa Ana and Santa Maria River at Guadalupe, California
Carl G. Kroll
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-40
The computed sediment discharge of Santa Ana River at Santa Ana for the water years 1968-71 was 11,700,000 tons (10,600,000 tonnes) of suspended sediment and 5,000,000 tons (4,500,000 tonnes) of coarse sediment. The computed discharge of Santa Maria River at Guadalupe for the water years 1969-71 was 9,500,000 tons (8,600,000...

A digital-computer model for estimating drawdowns in the sandstone aquifer in Dane County, Wisconsin
R.S. McLeod
1975, Open-File Report 74-59
A digital-computer program was developed to compute nonsteady and steady-state hydrologic changes caused by pumping from a confined aquifer. The program computes head changes in the confined aquifer and the rate and volume of water withdrawn from aquifer boundaries.The program was used to model the sandstone aquifer underlying Dane County,...
Stratigraphy and paleontology of coal beds in the Ghazij Shale, Sor Range-Daghari Coal Field, Quetta Division, Pakistan
Edward B. Fritz, M.R. Khan
1975, Open-File Report 75-274
Coal mine tunnels and surface sections in the Ghazij Shale of early Eocene age in the coal field near Quetta, Pakistan, were sampled in detail in order to make a foraminiferal analysis. This analysis and consequent correlations suggest that the coal seams are lenticular and have little lateral continuity. The...

Upper Paleozoic to Mesozoic eolian blanket sandstones of the Colorado Plateau and the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and southern Wyoming are texturally complex. As petroleum reservoirs they commonly have poor performance histories. They contain the sediments of a depositional system comprised of three closely associated depositional subenvironments: dune, interdune, and...
A reconnaissance study of the U and Th contents of plutonic rocks of the southeastern Seward Peninsula, Alaska

1975, Open-File Report 75-217
Large granitic Cretaceous plutons are exposed along and adjacent to an arcuate belt of igneous and high-grade metamorphic rocks in the southeastern Seward Peninsula of Alaska. Reconnaissance studies of these plutons have shown that the Darby pluton has well above average amounts of U and Th (11.2 ppm and 58.7...
Niobium (columbium) and tantalum resources of Brazil
Max Gregg White
1975, Open-File Report 75-29
Most of the niobium resources of Brazil occur as pyrochlore in carbonatites within syenitic intrusives of Late Cretaceous to early Tertiary age in western Minas Gerais and southeastern Goils. Minor amounts of it are produced together with tantalum from columbite-tantalite concentrates from pegmatites and placers adjacent to them, in the...
