Water power resources of Scenery Creek near Petersburg, Alaska
Fred F. Lawrence
1950, Open-File Report 50-113
Due to high unit runoff, a good storage site, and a high concentration of fall, Scenery Lake presents a favorable power site. By building a tunnel three miles long from Scenery Grove to tap Scenery Lake at elevation 900 feet and a dam to raise Scenery Lake to elevation 1020...

Short routine direct method for the fluorimetric determination of uranium in phosphate rocks
F. S. Grimaldi, Norma S. Guttag
1950, Trace Elements Investigations 134
A short routine direct fluorimetric procedure for the determination of up to 0.06 percent uranium in phosphate ricks is described. The procedure employs a simple acid leach for preparing the solution, and the uranium is determined directly on a 1.8-mg aliquot. The results obtained by using this simply procedure on...
Geologic interpretation of seismic data, relocation Route 1 cut, Stations 25-36 Ballard Estate in Topsfield, Mass.
James E. May, Daniel Linehan
1950, Open-File Report 50-45
This investigation was undertaken to determine the surface and subsurface conditions between stations 25 and 36 of the proposed relocation of the Newburyport Turnpike, Route 1, Topsfield, Mass. Reconnaissance seismic work was performed at the site in September 1949. Because that work showed bedrock near the surface over an extensive...
Structural geology of the Terlingua quicksilver district, Texas
George Albert Thompson Jr.
1950, Open-File Report 50-9
Geologic mapping, supplemented by detailed investigations at the mines, has revealed new information about the geologic structure of the Terlingua quicksilver district, Texas. Attention is focused on the nature and origin of domes, grabens, and breccia pipes, structures that are unusually well developed in the area. The sedimentary rocks, of...
