Geology of the Ralston Buttes district, Jefferson County, Colorado: a preliminary report
Douglas M. Sheridan, Charles H. Maxwell, Arden L. Albee, Richard Van Horn
1956, Trace Elements Memorandum 901
The Ralston Buttes district in Jefferson County is one of the most significant new uranium districts located east of the Continental Divide in Colorado. The district is east of the Colorado Front Range mineral belt, along the east front of the range. From November 1953 through October 1956, about 10,000...
Saline waters in New York State, Long Island, Staten Island and Manhattan, and upstate New York
N.J. Lusczynski, J. J. Geraghty, E.S. Asselstine, I.G. Grossman
1956, Bulletin GW-36
In connection with studies of the practicability of conversion of saline water to fresh water, the U. S. Geological Survey assembled data on the occurrence, distribution, quantity, and chemical quality of saline waters as of 1955 for a report entitled, "Preliminary survey of the saline water resources of the United...
Geographic names of Antarctica
U.S. Board on Geographic Names, Department of the Interior, Meredith F. Burrill, Kenneth J. Bertrand, Fred G. Alberts
1956, Gazetteer 14
The geographic nomenclature of Antarctica was long in need of an overall systematic treatment, objective in approach and based upon thorough examination of all the evidence. The results of such treatment over a period of about three years were presented in Geographical Names of Antarctica, Special Publication No. 86 of...
Uranium-bearing coal in the central part of the Great Divide basin, Sweetwater County, Wyoming
George Nicholas Pipiringos
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 477
Field work leading to this report was done by the U.S. Geological Survey for the Division of Raw Materials of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. Nearly 24 townships were mapped in the central part of the Great Divide Basin, Sweetwater County, Wyoming. Fourteen of these townships contain outcrops of uranium-bearing...
Toxicity of chlorinated insecticides to quail and pheasants
J.B. DeWitt
1956, Atlantic Naturalist (11) 115-118
'Residues from insecticidal applications of chlorinated hydrocarbons may remain toxic for extended periods. In experiments designed to furnish information on the effects upon quail and pheasants of prolonged feeding upon diets containing small percentages of these compounds, it was shown that aldrin, dieldrin and endrin are cumulative, and that quail...
Ecological study of ruffed grouse broods in Virginia
R. E. Stewart
1956, The Auk (73) 33-41
The Ruffed Grouse (Bonasa umbellus), commonly called "pheasant" throughout the southern Appalachian region, is a popular game bird in the mountains of Virginia. Unfortunately, however, the grouse populations in this State have declined noticeably during the past fifty years. Because of this, special field studies were designed through the cooperation...
Fifty-sixth Christmas Bird Count. 147. Southern Dorchester County, Md
Fred A. Johnson, B. Kenneth Williams, J.D. Nichols, J.E. Hines, W. L. Kendall, G.W. Smith, David F. Caithamer
1956, Audubon Field Notes (10) 565-583
Summary and Recommendations: We suggest that managers are approaching the limits of their ability to improve waterfowl harvest management, primarily because the information needed to make better decisions is being sacrificed by the current approach to setting regulations. We propose an actively adaptive management strategy in which regulatory...
Fifty-sixth Christmas Bird Count. 147. Southern Dorchester County, Md
C.S. Robbins
1956, Audubon Field Notes (10) 112-113
Summary and Recommendations: We suggest that managers are approaching the limits of their ability to improve waterfowl harvest management, primarily because the information needed to make better decisions is being sacrificed by the current approach to setting regulations. We propose an actively adaptive management strategy in which regulatory...
Geology of the Midnite Mine area, Spokane Indian Reservation, Stevens County, Washington
Eugene L. Boudette, Paul L. Weis
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 634
The Midnite mine is on the Spokane Indian Reservation, Stevens County, Wash. Geologic mapping and reconnaissance in the vicinity of the mine indicate metasedimentary rocks of probable Precambrian age have been intruded by two varieties of quartz monzonite of probable Cretaceous age. Porphyritic quartz monzonite underlies about three-fourths of the...
Botanical prospecting for uranium in the Circle Cliffs area, Garfield County, Utah
F. J. Kleinhampl, Carl Koteff
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 604
<Plant-analysis prospecting may be used to locate uranium deposits in the Circle Cliffs area where the deposits lie as much as 70 feet beneath the surface of benches developed on the Shinarump member of the Chinle formation. The Shinarump comprising the benches is thicker than 70 feet at many...
Some observations on rutherfordine
Joan R. Clark, C. L. Christ
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 584
The optical properties of rutherfordine, UO2CO3, previously determined on microscopic crystals, have been redetermined on considerably larger crystals; and the relations among the indices of refraction, the morphology, and the crystal structure have been examined. Rutherfordine is orthorhombic, biaxial positive, with α = 1.715, β = 1.730, γ =...
Summary of the mineralogy of the Colorado Plateau uranium ores
Alice D. Weeks, Robert Griffin Coleman, Mary E. Thompson
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 583
In the Colorado Plateau uranium has been produced chiefly from very shallow mines in carnotite ores (oxidized vanadiferous uranium ores) until recent deeper mining penetrated black unoxidized ores in water-saturated rocks and extensive exploration has discovered many deposits of low to nonvanadiferous ores. The uranium ores include a wide...
Duttonite, a new quadrivalent vanadium oxide from the Peanut mine, Montrose County, Colorado
Mary Eleanor Thompson, Carl Houston Roach, Robert Meyrowitz
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 582
Duttonite, a new quadrivalent vanadium oxide from the Peanut mine, Montrose County, Colo., has the formula VO(OH)2. The mineral occurs as crusts and coatings of pale-brown transparent platy crystals, as one of the first oxidation products of montroseite ore. It is associated with melanovanadite and abundant crystals of hexagonal...
Uranium in carbonaceous rocks in the Townsend and Helena valleys, Montana
George E. Becraft
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 581
Uranium-bearing carbonaceous shale and lignite beds are exposed in five areas in the Townsend and Helena Valleys in western Montana. The greatest number of exposures is in an area of several square miles northeast of Winston in the Townsend Valley. The uranium-bearing beds are in the lower part...
