Uranium deposits at Shinarump Mesa and some adjacent areas in the Temple Mountain district, Emery County, Utah
Donald G. Wyant
1953, Trace Elements Investigations 51
Deposits of uraniferous hydrocarbons are associated with carnotite in the Shinarump conglomerate of Triassic age at Shinarump Mesa and adjacent areas of the Temple Mountain district in the San Rafael Swell of Emery County, Utah.

Ground-water conditions in artesian aquifers in Brown County, Wisconsin
William James Drescher
1953, Water Supply Paper 1190
The principal water-bearing rocks underlying Brown County, Wis., are thick sandstone units of Cambrian and Ordovician age. Other aquifers include limestone and dolomite of Ordovician age, dolomite of Silurian age, and sands and gravel of Pleistocene and Recent age. Underlying the water-bearing formations are crystalline rocks of pre-Cambrian age which...
Abbreviations used in publications of the United States Geological Survey
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1953, Report
The use of abbreviations in publications of the Geological Survey is determined by several forces working in different directions. Pulling in the direction of greater condensation and the freer use of abbreviations and symbols is the desire to achieve greater economy in publications. Working in the opposite direction is the...
