The application, technique, and theory of Gish-Rooney instruments, methods, and interpretation in electrical resistivity measurements
H. Cecil Spicer
1957, Open-File Report 58-99
The foundations of electrical prospecting were laid by Fox (1830) and Barus (1882). The former discovered that electrical currents and potentials were developed by certain ore deposits in Cornwall, England. Fox made measurements of these potentials and determined the resistivities of the minerals and surrounding rocks also. The latter, invented...
Water levels in observation wells in Nebraska during 1956
C.F. Keech
1957, Open-File Report 57-61
The Objective of the observation-well program in Nebraska is to provide an evaluation of the status of the ground-water supplies. Many uses tor water-level data are known but not all potential uses can be foreseen. Among the important uses are the following: (1) To indicate the status of ground water in storage or in transit...

A gamma-ray absorption method for the determination of uranium in ores
Alfred F. Hoyte
1957, Open-File Report 57-55
Current radioactivity methods used for the determination of uranium in ores are based on the assumption that secular equilibrium exists between the daughter products. Eichholz has developed a method which is claimed to be independent of the degree of equilibrium, but it has been found to be inadequate when used...
