Fluid inclusions in salt from the Rayburn and Vacherie domes, Louisiana
Edwin Roedder, H. E. Belkin
1979, Open-File Report 79-1675
Core samples from the Rayburn and Vacherie salt domes in Louisiana were examined for fluid inclusions, in connection with the possible use of such domes for nuclear waste storage sites. Three types of fluid inclusions were found, brine, compressed gas, and oil (in decreasing volume percent abundance). The total amount...

1979, Open-File Report 79-543
Semiquantitative spectrographic analyses for 31 elements and atomic absorption analyses for gold and zinc on 43 stream sediments, 5 panned concentrates, 65 soils, and 81 rock samples from the Big Frog Wilderness Study Area and vicinity, Polk County, Tennessee, and Fannin County, Georgia, are reported here in detail. Locations for...
A one-dimensional, steady-state, dissolved-oxygen model and waste-load assimilation study for East Fork White River, Bartholomew County, Indiana
William G. Wilber, James G. Peters, Charles G. Crawford
1979, Open-File Report 79-1072
The Indiana State Board of Health is developing a State water-quality management plan that includes the establishing of limits for wastewater effluents discharged into Indiana streams. A digital model calibrated to conditions in East Fork White River was used to develop alternatives for future waste loadings that would be compatible...
Basin-margin depositional environments of the Fort Union and Wasatch Formations in the Buffalo-Lake De Smet area, Johnson County, Wyoming
Stanley L. Obernyer
1979, Open-File Report 79-712
The Paleocene Fort Union and Eocene Wasatch Formations along the east flank of the Bighorn Mountains in the Buffalo-Lake De Smet area, Wyoming, consist of continental alluvial fan, braided stream, and poorly drained alluvial plain deposits. The Fort Union conformably overlies the Cretaceous Lance Formation, which is marine in its...

Uranium and thorium in granitic rocks of northeastern Washington and northern Idaho, with comments on uranium resource potential
J. Thomas Nash
1979, Open-File Report 79-233
Northeastern Washington and northern Idaho is a uranium province in which many Cretaceous and Tertiary granitic plutons contain abnormal amounts of uranium. Mean uranium content of 108 samples of granitic rock is 8.8 parts per million (ppm), more than twice normal for rocks of this composition. The mean thorium content,...
Earth fissures and localized differential subsidence
Thomas L. Holzer, Earl Haig Pampeyan
1979, Open-File Report 79-951
Long tension cracks caused by declines of ground-water level at four sites in Arizona, California, and Nevada occur at points of maximum, convex-upward curvature in subsidence profiles based on relevelings of closely-spaced bench marks aligned perpendicular to the cracks. We conclude the cracks are caused by horizontal strains associated with...

1979, Open-File Report 79-591
The U.S. Geological Survey Saudi Arabian Mission has the responsibility for implementing a computer-based file known as the Rock Analysis Storage System (RASS), which is principally a geochemical data bank or library. Geologic parameters are necessarily provided for, but are far from comprehensive; nevertheless, nine years of operation in the...

The Cascade Range of Washington north of 47? latitude is composed of probable Paleozoic and Mesozoic metamorphic rocks and Mesozoic and Tertiary plutonic rocks. Several Paleogene nonmarine arkosic sandstone units fringe and in part occur within the complex crystalline core. The early to middle Eocene Chuckanut Formation is present on...
