1978, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 900-I
This map shows the distribution of anomalous tungsten in the two sample fractions, magnetic (M-1) and nonmagnetic (NM-1) gold in the nonmagnetic (NM-1) fraction; these are plotted on a base which includes sample localities, topography, and generalized geology modified from Hedlund (1975a, b). It is part of a series of...
Comparison of the Wilfley concentration table and hand panning for concentration of heavy minerals prior to geochemical analysis
William R. Greenwood, M.E. Koesterer, Steve Ludington, Donald A. Risoli
1978, Open-File Report 78-712
Chemical analysis of heavy—mineral concentrates of stream sediments is a common geochemical exploration technique used by the U.S. Geological Survey. Generally these concentrates are prepared by hand panning at streamside or in a washtub and then further concentrated using heavy—liquid (bromoform) techniques in a laboratory. Concentration using heavy liquids is...

Model evaluation of the hydrogeology of the Cypress Creek well field in west-central Florida
Paul D. Ryder
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-79
The Cypress Creek well field is being developed to help supply a rapidly growing population in west-central Florida. The ground-water system in the Cypress Creek well-field area consists of a surficial sand aquifer, a semiconfining clay layer ranging from 2 to 25 feet in thickness, and a sequence of carbonate...

Discharge, gage height, and elevation of 100-year floods in the Hudson River basin, New York
Roger J. Archer
1978, Open-File Report 78-332
The flood discharge that may be expected to be equaled or exceeded on the average of once in 100 years (100-year flood) was computed by the log-Pearson Type-III frequency relation for 72 stations in the Hudson River basin. These discharges and, where available, their corresponding gage height and elevation above...

Map showing anomalous bismuth distribution in stream sediment concentrates, Hillsboro and San Lorenzo quadrangles, exclusive of the Black Range Primitive Area, Sierra and Grant counties, New Mexico
K. C. Watts, H. V. Alminas, J. M. Nishi, W.C. Crim
1978, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 900-K
This map shows the distribution of anomalous bismuth in the nonmagnetic (NM-1) sample fraction plotted on a base which includes sample localities, topography, and generalized geology modified from Hedlund (1975a, b). It is part of a series of maps for several metals that accompany this folio. Distributions of bismuth values...
Geochemical explorations for gold deposits at Goldfield, Nevada
Roger P. Ashley, William J. Keith
1978, Open-File Report 78-228
The main problem in geochemical exploration for gold ore bodies in the 40 km2 hydrothermally altered area at Goldfield is to decide which of the many silicified ledges exposed are most likely to yield deposits with additional subsurface exploration. We conclude that the most efficient way to search for exploration...

Hydrologic data for the Antlers aquifer, southeastern Oklahoma
Robert E. Davis, Donald L. Hart Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-1038
The U.S. Geological Survey has collected data on Oklahoma's ground-water resources since 1934. Most of these data were collected as part of specific ground-water studies conducted in cooperation with various Federal, State, and local agencies.The information in this report was obtained in the field, from published reports (Davis, 1960, Hart,...

Gas-driven pump for ground-water samples
Donald C. Signor
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-72
Observation wells installed for artificial-recharge research and other wells used in different ground-water programs are frequently cased with small-diameter steel pipe. To obtain samples from these small-diameter wells in order to monitor water quality, and to calibrate solute-transport models, a small-diameter pump with unique operating characteristics is required that causes...
