Tungsten resources of Brazil
Max Gregg White
1974, Open-File Report 74-332
Brazilian tungsten production, 85 percent of which is exported, comes almost entirely from scheelite-bearing tactites in northeast Brazil, and has reached an annual rate of about 2,000 metric tons (2,200 short tons) of scheelite concentrate with 70 percent WO3. Scheelite ore reserves, located principally in the State of Rio Grande...
Water supply at Painted Canyon Overlook, Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit), southwestern North Dakota
M.G. Croft
1974, Open-File Report 74-136
A 1,930-foot (588-metre) water-supply well was constructed at the Painted Canyon Overlook, Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit), southwestern North Dakota. Aquifers underlying the site are in rocks of Late Cretaceous and Tertiary age. These rocks have an aggreqate thickness of about 2,000 feet (610 metres). The well screen...
A tabulation of K-Ar, Rb-Sr and Pb-alpha ages obtained for materials within the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) during the years 1956 through 1964
Richard F. Marvin
1974, Open-File Report 74-1068
This tabulation of ages has been made as a convenience to anyone desiring a quick reference to ages published in the United States from 1956 through 1964. This tabulation does not include all published K-Ar, Rb-Sr, or Pb-a ages, but is probably 98 percent complete. Many of the radiometric ages...
Special techniques for determining chemical properties of geothermal water
T. S. Presser, Ivan Barnes
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-22
A reliable determination of the chemical composition of geothermal fluids may require special sampling and preservation techniques. A sample collected without pretreatment is usually adequate for the analysis of sodium, potassium, and chloride. Other constituents may require further treatment or even analysis in the field, depending on the data requirements....
Volcanic hazards on the Island of Hawaii
Donal Ray Mullineaux, Donald W. Peterson
1974, Open-File Report 74-239
Volcanic hazards on the Island of Hawaii have been determined to be chiefly products of eruptions: lava flows, falling fragments, gases, and particle-and-gas clouds. Falling fragments and particle-and-gas clouds can be substantial hazards to life, but they are relatively rare. Lava flows are the chief hazard to property; they are...
Limnological study of Lake Shastina, Siskiyou County, California
Alex E. Dong, Kenneth W. Beatty, Robert C. Averett
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-19
Lake Shastina provides water for irrigation in Shasta Valley, as well as recreation. Presently, its shoreline is being developed for summer homes. Surface water constituted more than 90 percent of the approximately 50,000 acre-foot (62-cubic hectometre) inflow to Lake Shastina in the 1972 water year. Controlled outflow is via the...
Review of waterpower classifications and withdrawals, Pit River basin, California

1974, Open-File Report 74-250
National energy needs have precipitated an increased interest in the development of a large coal-based electric power industry in the western United States. This anticipated development has, in turn, spawned a great deal of interest in the environmental impact consequent upon the mining and utilization of these coal supplies. Numerous...
