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...
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...
Geology and coal deposits of Jarvis Creek coalfield, Alaska
Clyde Wahrhaftig, C.A. Hickcox
1953, Open-File Report 53-263
The Jarvis Creek coal field lies on the north side of the Alaska Range between latitudes 63°35' and 63°45 N., and longitudes 145°40' and 145°50 W. It is 2 to 6 miles east of the Richardson Highway. The coal field is about 16 square miles in area, the major part...

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...

Marine geology of the Near Islands Shelf, Alaska
Philip Challacombe Scruton
1953, Open-File Report 53-245
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...

Results of reconnaissance for uraniferous coal, lignite, and carbonaceous shale in western Montana
William James Hail, James R. Gill
1953, Circular 251
A reconnaissance search for uraniferous lignite and carbonaceous shale was made in western Montana and adjacent parts of Idaho during the summer of 1951. Particular emphasis in the examination was placed on coal and carbonaceous shale associated with volcanic rocks, as volcanic rocks in many areas appear to have released...

Full development of a proposal to divert the headwaters of the Yukon River drainage from Canada into the Taiya River valley of Alaska would make available more than a half million kilowatts of electrical energy. Utilization of this block of power, for which there is at present no local market,...
Yellow Canary uranium deposits, Daggett County, Utah
Verl Richard Wilmarth
1953, Circular 312
The Yellow Canary uranium deposit is on the west side of Red Creek Canyon in the northern part of the Uinta Mountains, Daggett County, Utah. Two claims have been developed by means of an adit, three opencuts, and several hundred feet of bulldozer trenches. No uranium ore has been produced...

M.G. White, P.L. Killeen
1953, Circular 255
Investigations in 1947 in the Lower Yukon-Kuskokwim region, Alaska found that previously reported radioactivity in the vicinity of Flat is due to uraniferous zircon, an accessory mineral in monzonite. The monzonite intrudes mafic igneous and Upper Cretaceous sedimentary rocks. The maximum equivalent-uranium content of the zircon is 0.14 percent, and...
