Quaternary geology of the Nenana River and adjacent parts of the Alaska Range, Alaska
Clyde Wahrhaftig
1953, Open-File Report 53-262
The Nenana River flows northward across the Alaska Range near 149° west longitude. Sedimentary bedrock formations of its basin include pre-Cambrian schist undifferentiated Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks, continental upper Cretaceous rocks and poorly consolidated continental Tertiary rocks. Igneous rocks include pre Devonian quartz orthoclase schist, greenstone, granitic and basic intrusives...

During the summer of 1950 on the insular shelf surrounding the Near Islands, Alaska, 193 oceanographic stations were occupied from aboard the U. S. Geological Survey vessel EIDER. Bottom character and temperature observations were made at these stations. The composition and size distribution characteristics of the bottom samples have been...
The Robinson and Weatherly uraniferous pyrobitumen deposits near Placerville, San Miguel County, Colorado
V.R. Wilmarth, R.C. Vickers
1953, Open-File Report 53-273
Uranium deposits that contain uraniferous pyrobitumen of possible hydrothermal origin occur at the Weatherly and Robinson properties near Placerville, San Miguel County, Colo. These deposits were mined for copper, silver, and gold more than 50 years ago and were developed for uranium in 1950. The Robinson property, half a mile...
Measurement of earth pressure in the iron-ore mines of eastern France
M.E. Tincelin
1953, Open-File Report 54-30
The purpose of the tests, which will be reported later, is to measure as precisely as possible the tangential stresses exerted on the periphery of a gallery cut in the Lorraine iron ore. The values of the tangential stresses along the periphery being known, they will be compared with the values...

Water supply of the Birmingham area, Alabama
W.H. Robinson, J.B. Ivey, G. A. Billingsley
1953, Circular 254
Sufficient water is available in the streams of the area surrounding Birmingham to supply any foreseeable demand; however, to utilize these streams impounding reservoirs and rather long supply lines will be required. Moderate supplies of ground water are available from wells, springs, and mines. The average water use in the...
