Ephemeral streams - Hydraulic factors and their relation to the drainage net
Luna Bergere Leopold, John P. Miller
1956, Professional Paper 282-A
The hydraulic factors of width, depth, velocity, and suspended sediment load of ephemeral streams near Santa Fe, N. Mex., were measured during flood flow. Later, channel slope was measured. These flood-flow data, in conjunction with an analysis of drainage-basin configuration by the methods proposed by Horton, are used to determine...
Geology of Saipan, Mariana Islands; Part 1, General geology
Preston E. Cloud Jr., Robert George Schmidt, Harold W. Burke
1956, Professional Paper 280-A
Saipan, situated about 15° N. and 146° E., is one of the larger and more southerly of the Mariana Islands. The 15 small islands of this chain are strung along an eastwardly convex ridge for more than 400 miles north to south, midway between Honshu and New Guinea and about...
Surficial geology and geomorphology of Potter County, Pennsylvania
C. S. Denny
1956, Professional Paper 288
Potter County is located in the Appalachian Plateaus of north-central Pennsylvania and contains the headwaters of the Genesee River, the Allegheny River, and the Susquehanna River. Drift of Wisconsin age covers the northeastern part of the county. This study includes a detailed survev of the surficial deposits of the Genesee...
Geology and mineral resources of the Ivanpah quadrangle, California and Nevada
D. F. Hewett
1956, Professional Paper 275
The Ivanpah quadrangle covers about 3,900 square miles in the northeastern part of the Mojave Desert of southeastern California and southern Nevada. It includes many mountain ranges 6,000 to 7,000 feet in altitude, and a single peak, Potosi Mountain, attains 8,504 feet. The ranges are separated by broad alluvial filled...
Uranium content and leachability of some igneous rocks and their geochemical significance
George J. Neuerburg, John C. Antweiler, Barrie H. Bieler
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 626
The uranium content and its leachability in 442 igneous rocks if wide variety were measured. Four-gram samples, crushed below 38 mesh, were leached in in 0.05 M HNO3 for half an hour at 80 to 85° C; the leachate and undissolved residue were analyzed fluorimetrically. This study explored the relation of...
Detailed mineral and chemical relations in two uranium-vanadium ores
Robert M. Garrels, E. S. Larsen III, A. M. Pommer, R. G. Coleman
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 635
Channel samples from two mines on the Colorado Plateau have been studied in detail both mineralogically and chemically. A channel sample from the Mineral Joe No. 1 mine, Montrose County, Colo., extends from unmineralized rock on one side, through a zone of variable mineralization, into only weakly mineralized rock. The unmineralized...
A dithizone method for the determination of lead in monazite
R. A. Powell, C. A. Kinser
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 630
In determining lead in monazite [(Ce,La,Th)PO4]--to be used as the basis for geologic age measurements--it was necessary to eliminate interferences due to the presences of phosphates of thorium and the rare-earth metals. The method, in which monazite samples are attacked with hot concentrated sulfuric acid, taken up with dilute nitric acid,...
X-ray powder data for uranium and thorium minerals
Clifford Frondel, Daphne Riska, Judith Weiss Frondel
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 575
The U.S. Geological Survey has in preparation a comprehensive volume on the mineralogy of uranium and thorium. This work has been done as part of a continuing systematic survey of data on uranium and thorium minerals on behalf of the Division of Raw Materials, U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. Pending publication of...
