Preliminary geologic map of the Paris-Bloomington vanadium area, Bear Lake County, Idaho
V.E. McKelvey, J.D. Strobell Jr.
1955, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 41
The Permian Phosphoria formation in the vicinity of the towns of Paris and Bloomington, Bear Lake County, Idaho, contains large tannages of vanadiferous mudstone and phosphorite. The area underlain by these rocks was mapped in 1943 as a guide to the exploration of the vanadiferous zone then being conducted by...

Geology and zinc-lead deposits in the Durango area, Dubuque County, Iowa
Arthur E. Flint, C. Erwin Brown
1955, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 33
Geologic investigations were begun in Iowa to appraise; (1) the possible occurrence of zinc ore in strata that elsewhere in the Upper Mississippi Valley zinc-lead district have been the principal sites of zinc concentration; and (2) lead ore of the type known as "crevice deposits," which were mined so extensively...
Geology and zinc-lead deposits in the Couler Valley area, Dubuque County, Iowa
C. Erwin Brown, L.G. Collins, Percy Crosby
1955, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 42
Geologic investigations were begun in the Iowa portion of the Wisconsin-Illinois-Iowa zinc-lead district to appraise its potentialities: (1) for zinc ore in strata that elsewhere in the mining district contain large zinc ore bodies and (2) for lead and zinc deposits of the type that were mined extensively in Dubuque...

John W. Allingham, Arthur E. Flint, Allen F. Agnew
1955, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 40
A broad geologic study of the structure and ore deposits of the Wisconsin-Illinois-Iowa zinc-lead district (fig. 1) was begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1942. The main object of the present program is to delineate the areas favorable to future exploration for zinc-lead ore deposits. As part of the...

1955, Trace Elements Investigations 445
The Red Cliffs area comprises 296 square miles of canyon and plateau country in southwestern San Juan County, Utah. The rocks that crop out in the area are mostly deposits of terrestrial environment and are of Permian, Triassic, Jurassic, and Quaternary ages. The aggregate thickness of these rock is about...
Engineering geology as applied to highway construction
Leonard M. Gard Jr.
1955, Open-File Report 55-46
A geologic study of the site for a relocated segment of State Highway 93 northwest of Denver Colo., was made by by the Engineering Geology Branch of the U.S. Geological Survey as a demonstration of the applicability of geologic mapping to problems of highway construction. The relocated segment provides access...
Relationship of uranium and other trace elements to post-Cretaceous vulcanism
Robert R. Coats
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 159
A regional study of the distribution of uranium, boron, tin, beryllium, niobium, lanthanum, lead, zirconium, lithium, and fluorine in 112 samples of Cenozoic volcanic rocks of predominately rhyolitic and dacitic composition has shown that the content of uranium has a significantly high positive correlation with that of niobium, beryllium, and...
Provenience of pyroclastic materials
C. S. Ross
1955, Geological Society of America Bulletin (66) 427-434
Recent studies of rhyolitic and pyroclastic materials, and in particular of welded tuffs and bentonites, show that they occur over wide areas and in volumes which greatly exceed earlier evaluations. Volcanic ash and bentonite occur in the eastern United States where such materials were long unrecognized. In most of the...
