Exploratory geophysical traverses in the Oakfield Hills area, Smyrna Mills Quadrangle, Maine
Martin Francis Kane, Randolph Wilson Bromery, Frank C. Frischknecht
1963, Open-File Report 63-71
Ground magnetic, gravity, and electromagnetic measurements in the Oakfield Hills area have delineated a series of steeply dipping, dikelike rock units with high apparent susceptibility, high density, and often high conductivity. The measurements were made to investigate the source of a 3000-gamma aeromagnetic anomaly. The rock units are apparently a...

Geology, hydrology, and water supply of Edwards Air Force Base, Kern County, California
Lee Carlton Dutcher, G.F. Warts Jr.
1963, Open-File Report 63-146
Edwards Air Force Base occupies the northern part of Antelope Valley, California. As a result of large-scale and increasing agricultural pumping in the valley, the net draft has exceeded the perennial supply since about 1930 and was about 170,000 acre-feet in 1951--at least three times the estimated yield. As a...

1963, Open-File Report 63-124
As a result of the increasing need for fluorspar, especially in North America, the Mexican fluorspar industry expanded greatly is the 8-year period, 1952-1960. Since 1956, Mexico has been the world's largest producer and exporter of this commodity. From 1956 through 1959 Maltice imported about 90 percent of the fluorspar...

Uranium in sediments
John Nicholas Rosholt
1963, Open-File Report 63-117
An oceanographic approach is used to study the distribution of abnormal occurrences of uranium in sediments. The occurrences predominate in marine phosphorites, black marine shales, and deposits in terrestrial-fluvial sandstones and ancient conglomerites. In early Paleozoic times, marine shales accounted for the majority of uranium deposition. By the beginning of...

Report on the operation of Barnaby, summer, 1948
Henry Faul
1963, Open-File Report 63-32
Barnaby is a self-contained truck-mounted unit for gamma-ray logging of diamond drillholes less than 200 feet deep. The radiation is detected by Geiger-Muller counter and the impulses are transmitted up a single-conductor shielded cable by a special circuit. At the surface the impulses are electronically counted and the average counting...
