Edward Huntington Cobb
1979, Open-File Report 80-86
This summary of references is designed to aid in library research on metallic and nonmetallic (other than mineral fuels and construction materials) mineral deposits in the Kenai and Tyonek quadrangles, Alaska. References to most reports of the Geological Survey, U.S. Bureau of Mines, and State of Alaska Division of Geological...
Surface water environment in the area of the San Juan Basin regional uranium study, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and Utah
Mark William Busby
1979, Open-File Report 79-1499
Streamflows in the lowland areas of the San Juan Basin are highly variable, responding to short-duration, high-intensity thunderstorms occurring in the late spring and summer. The thunderstorms can cause floods of large magnitude, but of localized extent. Most streams of the lowlands are ephemeral or intermittent. Streams of the high...

Radioactive springs geochemical data related to uranium exploration: basic data and use of multivariate factor scores
Robert Allen Cadigan, J. Karen Felmlee
1979, Open-File Report 79-1302
Radioactive springs and wells at 33 localities in the States of Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico have been studied and sampled to obtain geochemical data to determine whether such data are useful in a uranium exploration program. Most samples were collected from mineral-rich springs probably related to hydrothermal systems...
Geometric considerations for an automated mapping satellite system (Mapsat)
Alden P. Colvocoresses
1979, Open-File Report 79-914
The geometry of the frame photograph whether taken from an aircraft or a satellite is well known and documented. Transforming photographs into maps is a relatively slow and expensive process which for many critical steps defies automation. A satellite offers the unique advantages of greater stability and uniform velocity over...
A summary of measured hydraulic data for the series of steady and unsteady flow experiments over patterned roughness
Dannie L. Collins, Kathleen M. Flynn
1979, Open-File Report 79-1260
This report summarizes and makes available to other investigators the measured hydraulic data collected during a series of experiments designed to study the effect of patterned bed roughness on steady and unsteady open-channel flow. The patterned effect of the roughness was obtained by clear-cut mowing of designated areas of an...

Origin of marcasite and its implications regarding the genesis of roll-front uranium deposits
Martin B. Goldhaber, Richard L. Reynolds
1979, Open-File Report 79-1696
Study of five roll-type uranium deposits (three in Texas and two in Wyoming) has resulted in the recognition of ore-stage marcasite in each deposit. Ore-stage marcasite is identified by its close association with uranium- and vanadium-bearing phases in the ore zones; by its close association with ferroselite at and near...
Mineral resources of the Minarets Wilderness and adjacent areas, Madera and Mono counties, California
N. King Huber, Howard W. Oliver, Roy A. Bailey, U.S. Bureau of Mines
1979, Open-File Report 79-1472
A mineral survey of the Minarets Wilderness area and adjacent areas in the central Sierra Nevada, Calif., was conducted during 1973 through 1975. The total area covers about 620 km2 (237 sq mi) in the Sierra and Inyo National Forests, of which about 440 km2 (170 sq mi) are within...

Available are four multichannel profiles collected by Digicon Geophysical Corporation in 1975 using a 48-channel streamer (3600 m long), and a 27.9 cubic liter airgun array. They were processed in Denver on the Phoenix "I" by William C. Petterson. The processing includes demultiplexing and resampling, geometry and common-depth-point, definition, velocity...

A coupled flow-temperature model has been developed and verified for a 27.9-km reach of the Chattahoochee River between Buford Dam and Norcross, Ga. Flow in this reach of the Chattahoochee is continuous but highly regulated by Buford Dam, a flood-control and hydroelectric facility located near Buford, Ga. Calibration and verification...

Core samples from a roll type uranium deposit in Live Oak County, south Texas have been studied and results are reported for Se, Mo, FeS2 and organic-carbon distribution, sulfide mineral petrology, and sulfur isotopic composition of iron-disulfide phases. In addition, sulfur isotopic compositions of dissolved sulfate and sulfide from the...
Preliminary study of wastewater movement in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, October 1976 through September 1977
Edward Riley Cox
1979, Open-File Report 79-684
Studies were made from October 1976 through September 1977 to determine the effects on lakes and streams of wastewater effluents that percolate from sewage lagoons at four sites in Yellowstone National Park. Ground-water mounds have built up under the lagoons as percolation of effluents occurred. Percolating effluents mix with ground...
Ground-water quality in the upper Santa Ana River basin, southern California
Lawrence A. Eccles
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-113
The principal ground-water quality problems in the Santa Ana River basin, as determined from two samplings (1968-69 and 1977-78), are high concentrations of dissolved solids in general and nitrate-nitrogen in particular. The distribution of dissolved solids exceeding 800 milligrams per liter was smaller in area in 1977-78 than in 1968-69....
