Depositional environments and paleocurrent directions in the Precambrian Moeda Formation, Minas Gerais, Brazil
David A. Lindsey
1975, Open-File Report 75-264
The middle Precambrian Moeda Formation of Minas Gerais, Brazil, contains uranium and other minerals believed to be of detrital origin. Two areas of anomalously high concentrations of uranium have been discovered in conglomeratic zones that are interpreted as paleochannels. Because the distribution of uranium is believed to be controlled at...
Water availability of Choctaw County, Alabama
John G. Newton, Jerald F. McCain
1975, Open-File Report 75-477
Large quantities of ground water and surface water are available in Choctaw County. Major sources of ground water are the Nanafalia Formation, Tuscahoma Sand, Hatchetigbee Formation, and Gosport Sand and Lisbon Formation. The Nanafalia Formation is the most productive source of ground water, and individual wells will yield as much...

Stuart Wesley Fader, Robert B. Morton
1975, Open-File Report 75-365
Ground water in the Verdigris River basin occurs in consolidated rocks and unconsolidated deposits ranging in age from Mississippian to Quaternary. Water for municipal, industrial, and irrigation supplies generally can be obtained in limited quantities from the alluvial deposits in the stream valleys. Except for water in the alluvial deposits...

Notes on some experiments on the application of subtractive compensation to USGS seismic magnetic tape recording and playback systems
Jerry P. Eaton
1975, Open-File Report 75-663
The purpose of these experiments is to lay the groundwork for the implementation of subtractive compensation of the USGS seismic network tape playbacks utilizing the Develco model 6203 discriminators at a x1 playback speed. Although the Develco discriminators were designed for this application and a matching Develco compensation discriminator was...

1975, Open-File Report 75-407
Los Medanos area of eastern Eddy and western Lea Counties, New Mexico, is being considered for possible siting of a repository Facility for experimental studies of nuclear-waste emplacement in salt beds of the Salado Formation of Permian age. The potential repository site encompasses about 29 square miles (75 square kilometres)...
Age and tectonic significance of volcanic rocks on St. Matthew Island, Bering Sea, Alaska
William Wallace Patton Jr., Marvin A. Lanphere, Thomas P. Miller, Richard A. Scott
1975, Open-File Report 75-150
Reconnaissance investigations of the heretofore little known volcanic assemblage on St. Matthew Island provide significant information on the tectonic history of the Bering Sea shelf. St. Matthew Island is made up of approximately 500 m of subaerial calc-alkaline volcanic rocks ranging in composition from high-alumina basalt to rhyolite. Four K-Ar...

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...

Ben Elder Lofgren
1975, Open-File Report 75-585
A comparison of 1974 leveling data with elevations established 40 years earlier reveals two types of vertical ground movement which have occurred in Raft River Valley, Idaho: (1) regional differential movement of about 0.22 ft (6.4 cm), apparently due to tectonism, and (2) extensive land subsidence of as much as...
