Ground-water reconnaissance in five Eskimo villages in the lower Kuskokwim-Yukon River area, Alaska
Roger Milton Waller
1955, Open-File Report 55-186
In response to a request from the Sanitation and Engineering Section of the Alaska Department of Health, a reconnaissance of the possibility of obtaining ground-water supplies for the five villages in the lower Kuskokwim-Yukon River area was made by the Geological Survey early in June 1955. The five Eskimo villages--Kwethluk,...

Uranium deposits of the northern part of the Boulder Batholith, Montana
George E. Becraft
1955, Trace Elements Memorandum 944
Uranium minerals and radioactivity anomalies occur in many silver-lead veins and chalcedony veins and vein zones in the Boulder batholith of southwestern Montanao Pitchblende has been identified in a few silver-lead veins. These veins occupy shear zones along which there is no evidence of large-scale lateral displacement. The wall rock...

1955, Open-File Report 55-197
This report and accompanying maps summarize the status or ownership or many phosphate bearing lands in southwestern Montana and northeastern Idaho. Ownership categories discussed are (1) phosphate rights owned by Federal Government, (2) phosphate rights not owned by Federal Government, and (3) ownership status uncertain....
Electrical resistivity measurements in the Neillsville area, Wisconsin
H. Cecil Spicer, George J. Edwards
1955, Open-File Report 55-173
Sixty-eight electrical depth profiles were completed in the vicinity of Neillsville, Wis. to obtain information on the water-bearing beds in the glacial moraine and consolidated sedimentary rocks in the area. No productive aquifers were found but the best areas for test drilling are described. The basic theory and interpretation procedures,...

1955, Trace Elements Investigations 424
The Copper King mine in Larimer County, Colo., in the northern part of the Front Range of Colorado, was opened in World War I in an unsuccessful attempt to mine copper and zinc ore. In 1949, following the discovery of pitchblende on the dump, the mine was reopened, and it...
A reconnaissance for uranium in carbonaceous rocks in southwestern Colorado and parts of New Mexico
Elmer H. Baltz Jr.
1955, Trace Elements Memorandum 915
Coal and carbonaceous shale of the Dakota formation of Cretaceous age were examined for radioactivity in the Colorado Plateau of southwestern Colorado and northwestern New l1exico during the summer of 1953. Older and younger sedimentary rocks and some igneous rocks also were examined, but in less detail, Weak radioactivity was...
Reconnaissance examination of the uranium deposits northeast of Winston, Broadwater County, Montana
George E. Becraft
1955, Trace Elements Memorandum 917
Anomalous radioactivity and a yellow secondary uranium mineral tentatively identified as carnotite have been found in Tertiary sedimentary rocks about 3 miles northeast of Winston, Mont. The uranium is in tuffs and tuffaceous shales and particularly in beds rich in organic matter. Carnotite(?) was identified from three localities, principally coating...
Some thorium prospects, Lemhi Pass area, Beaverhead County, Montana
Frank C. Armstrong
1955, Trace Elements Memorandum 918
The Last Chance group> Brown Bear and Shady Tree claims in Beaverhead County, Mont., were explored for thorium under a Defense Minerals Exploration Administration Contract in 1951 and 1952. The project was undertaken to explore northwest-trending moderately to steep dipping, thorite-bearing quartz-barite-hematite veins. The veins are wall-rock replacements and fissure fillings...
Preliminary experiments on the reduction of the uranyl ion to uraninite by carbonaceous substances
Irving A. Breger, Richard T. Moore
1955, Trace Elements Memorandum 942
An aqueous solution of uranyl sulfate containing a suspension of subbituminous coal has been heated at 210 C for three days. Examination of the coal at the end of the experiment showed it to contain 31.8 percent uranium recognizable as uraninite by a sharp, strong X-ray diffraction pattern. A similar...
