Arsenic, nitrate, iron, and hardness in ground water, Fairbanks area, Alaska
Paula R. Johnson, D.E. Wilcox, W.D. Morgan, Josephine Merto, Ruth McFadden
1979, Open-File Report 78-1034
Well water with concentrations of arsenic and nitrate exceeding U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards occurs sporadically throughout the hills north of Fairbanks, Alaska. The arsenic contamination has not been correlated with placer or other mining activity. The high levels of nitrate do not generally appear related to septic waste contamination....
Petrology and stratigraphy of Paleogene nonmarine sandstones, Cascade Range, Washington
Virgil A. Frizzell
1979, Open-File Report 79-1149
The Cascade Range of Washington north of 47? latitude is composed of probable Paleozoic and Mesozoic metamorphic rocks and Mesozoic and Tertiary plutonic rocks. Several Paleogene nonmarine arkosic sandstone units fringe and in part occur within the complex crystalline core. The early to middle Eocene Chuckanut Formation is present on...

Test data from the chloride-monitor well at Sun City Center, Hillsborough County, Florida
William C. Sinclair
1979, Open-File Report 78-1030
A test well drilled for Southwest Florida Water Management District at Sun City Center in Hillsborough County, will serve to monitor the interface between freshwater in the aquifer and the underlying chloride water. The sulfate content of the water in the aquifer at the well site exceeds 250 mg/L below...
Coal resources of southeastern Massachusetts assessed in 1942
Newton Earl Chute
1979, Open-File Report 79-1140
Large easily mined coal deposits of usable quality would be of great value to Massachusetts, particularly in war time. Every effort has been made in this study to evaluate the probable occurrence, quantity, and quality of the coal deposits in southeastern Massachusetts but unfortunately it is impossible from surface observations...
Borehole gravity surveys in native-sulfur deposits, Culberson and Pecos counties, Texas
James W. Schmoker, Stephen L. Robbins
1979, Open-File Report 79-361
Native-sulfur deposits in west Texas are heterogeneous, with sulfur content and formation properties varying significantly over small vertical and horizontal distances. The zone of recovery of the Frasch process extends tens or even hundreds of feet around each recovery well, but the investigation depth of most wire-line logs is measured...
The corrosive well waters of Egypt's western desert
Frank Eldridge Clarke
1979, Water Supply Paper 1757-O
The discovery that ground waters of Egypt's Western Desert are highly corrosive is lost in antiquity. Inhabitants of the oases have been aware of the troublesome property for many decades and early investigators mention it in their reports concerning the area. Introduction of modern well-drilling techniques and replacements of native...
Preliminary report on Tertiary volcanism and uranium mineralization in the Thomas Range and northern Drum Mountains, Juab County, Utah
David Allen Lindsey
1979, Open-File Report 79-1076
The Thomas Range and northern Drum Mountains have a history of volcanism, faulting, and mineralization that began about 42 m.y. ago. Volcanic activity and mineralization in the area can be divided into three stages according to the time-related occurrence of rock types, trace element associations, and chemical nature of mineralization....
High-resolution seismic profiling data from the upper continental slope of the northern Gulf of Mexico
Louis E. Garrison
1979, Open-File Report 79-955
From July 28 through December 20, 1975, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted a high-resolution geophysical survey on the Upper Continental Slope in the Gulf of Mexico north of Latitude 26°N. The survey was limited to water depths between 100 m and 1000 m with seismic lines spaced from 7.5 to...

Connector well experiment to recharge the Floridan Aquifer, East Orange County, Florida
P. W. Bush
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-73
An experimental connector well, screened in the shallow sand aquifer, finished with open hole in the Floridan aquifer, and cased through the confining layer between the two aquifers, was drilled in east Orange County, Florida, to obtain information on the nature and function of the shallow aquifer as related to...

1979, Open-File Report 79-1135
Sulfate geothermometry recently gained acceptance as a geothermal exploration tool when it was adopted as one of the geothermometers in the Assessment of Geothermal Resources of the United States-1978 (Muffler 1979). Over 120 samples, 75 of which are from Known Geothermal Resource Areas, were used in the assessment. Data required...
