Assessment of potential impacts to the hydrologic system related to surface mining
R. F. Hadley
1979, Open-File Report 79-1598
With the increasing demand for energy minerals, such as coal and uranium, and other minerals, Indian lands have received the attention of leasing, exploration, and mining interests. If these mineral resources, together with all other land resources, are to be managed properly by tribal decisionmakers, they will need more information....
Chemical analyses of coal from the Emery and Ferron Sandstone members of the Mancos Shale, Henry Mountains Field, Wayne and Garfield counties, Utah
Joseph R. Hatch, Ronald H. Affolter, Ben E. Law
1979, Open-File Report 79-1097
As part of a continuing program by the U.S. Geological Survey to collect and chemically analyze representative samples of U.S. coals, 18 samples were collected from the Upper Cretaceous Emery and Ferron Sandstone Members of the Mancos Shale in the Henry Mountains coal field, Wayne and Garfield Counties, Utah (fig....
Chemical analyses of lignite from the Wilcox Group, Texas region, central and eastern Texas
Rick T. Hildebrand, Joseph R. Hatch, Christopher D. Henry
1979, Open-File Report 79-1250
As part of a continuing program by the U.S. Geological Survey to collect and chemically analyze representative sales of U.S. coal, 45 samples of lignite and lignite-associated rocks were collected strip mines and drill holes in Freestone and Milam counties in central Texas, and in Harrison, Rains, Titus, Van Zandt,...
Monitoring crustal strain, Cerro Prieto geothermal field, Baja California, Mexico
Ben Elder Lofgren, Bruce L. Massey
1979, Open-File Report 79-204
Significant ground deformation may be occurring in the Cerro Prieto geothermal area, Mexicali Valley, Mexico, as a direct result of extensive withdrawals of geothermal fluid and of continuing tectonism. In order to measure the magnitude and rate of this deformation, three networks of precise geodetic control were established in 1977-78,...
Floods in Puerto Rico, magnitude and frequency
Miguel A. Lopez, Eloy Colon-Dieppa, Ernest D. Cobb
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-141
Annual-peak discharge records at 50 sites in Puerto Rico with five or more years of record were used to determine individual site log-Pearson type III frequency curves. The frequency curve values for 2-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year recurrence intervals at 37 sites with 10 or more years of record...
Preliminary results of coal exploratory drilling in the Book Cliffs coal region, Garfield County, Colorado, and Grand County, Utah
James Louis Gualtieri
1979, Open-File Report 79-999
Four holes were drilled in the Book Cliffs coal region of Garfield County, Colorado and Grand County, Utah to provide coal core samples suitable for analysis and stratigraphic information about coal-bearing strata. Three of the holes were completed; the fourth remains to be completed; a fifth is planned. A total...
Statistical summaries of surface-water-quality data for selected sites in Oklahoma, through the 1975 water year
J. K. Kurklin
1979, Open-File Report 79-219
Statistical summaries of surface-water-quality data for 47 streams in Oklahoma have been compiled. Data for the period of record through the 1975 water year at each site were used to develop regression equations for specific conductance-constituent relationships for calcium, magnesium, sodium, sodium plus potassium, bicarbonate, sulfate, chloride, silica, and dissolved...
Geology, geochronology, and potential volcanic hazards in the Lava Ridge-Hells Half Acre area, eastern Snake River Plain, Idaho
Mel A. Kuntz, G. Brent Dalrymple
1979, Open-File Report 79-1657
The evaluation of volcanic hazards for the proposed Safety Test Reactor Facility (STF) at the Argonne National Laboratory-West (ANLW) site, Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL), Idaho, involves an analysis of the geology of the Lava Ridge-Hells Half Acre area and of K-At age determinations on lava flows in cored drill...
Hydrologic data for water-table aquifers in the greater Denver area, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado
Donald E. Hillier, Paul A. Schneider, E. Carter Hutchinson
1979, Open-File Report 79-214
As part of the U.S. Geological Survey 's investigations of the hydrology and geology in the Front Range Urban Corridor of Colorado, hydrologic data for water-table aquifers in the greater Denver area were collected and compiled during 1976-77. These data, consisting of records for 325 wells and 11 springs and...
Palladium, platinum, and rhodium concentrations in mafic and ultramafic rocks from the Kizildag and Guleman areas, Turkey, and the Faryab and Esfandagheh-Abdasht areas, Iran
Norman J. Page, Tandogan Engin, Joseph Haffty
1979, Open-File Report 79-840
The Kizildag and Guleman areas, Turkey, and the Faryab and Esfandagheh-Abdasht areas, Iran, have produced chromite from ophiolite complexes consisting of harzburgite tectonite, dunite tectonite containing chromitite, pyroxenite, wehrlite, and gabbro. Forty-six samples from these complexes were analyzed in order to investigate the possibility of platinum-group metals being present that...
Evidence for tectonic movement of the Las Positas Fault, Alameda County, California
Darrell G. Herd, Earl E. Brabb
1979, Open-File Report 79-1658
On October 29, 1979, a new exposure of the Las Positas fault zone near Livermore, California, was created by excavation of a creek bank along Arroyo Seco. The face of the bank was cleaned by geologists of Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (Livermore, California) to obtain a better and more complete view...
Geologic map of the south side of the Moon
D.E. Wilhelms, K. A. Howard, H. G. Wilshire
1979, IMAP 1162
The map of the lunar region below lat 45˚ S. is the sixth part of a complete geologic recon<span class="NormalTextRun...
Map showing occurrences of spring-deposited travertine in the conterminous Western United States
J. H. Feth, Ivan Barnes
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-35
Extinct travertine terraces occur hundreds of meters above present levels of spring activity and have potentials for interpretation of ancient hydrologic systems, rates of downcutting, or rates of tectonic uplift that remain virtually unexploited. The abundance and size of extinct travertine deposits suggest that in many places, such as pinnacles...
Proterozoic sedimentary rocks and basins of the Arabian shield and their evolution
Donald G. Hadley, Dwight Lyman Schmidt
1979, Open-File Report 79-1189
Proterozoic sedimentary rocks of the Arabian Shield consist of three depositional phases. Phase I (the oldest) includes the Baish, Bahah, and Jiddah groups, which consist of an immature assemblage dominated by fine-grained metagraywacke, graphitic schist, chert, marble, and subordinate polymictic conglomerate and metasiltstone. Clastic rocks of Phase I are composed...
