Bedrock geology of the southwestern part of the North Range, Cuyuna district, Minnesota
R. G. Schmidt
1958, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 181
The Cuyuna manganiferous iron-ore district is in central Minnesota in Morrison, Crow Wing, and Aitkin Counties.  The length of the district is about 68 miles, extending northeastward from a point near Randall, in Morrison County, to a point 11 miles east of the community of Hassmann in Aitkin County; the...
Zirconium and hafnium in the southeastern Atlantic States
J.B. Mertie Jr.
1958, Bulletin 1082-A
The principal source of zirconium and hafnium is zircon, though a minor source is baddeleyite, mined only in Brazil. Zircon is an accessory mineral in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks, but rarely occurs in hardrock in minable quantities. The principal sources of zircon are therefore alluvial deposits, which are mined...
Areal geology of the Little Cone quadrangle, Colorado
Alfred Lerner Bush, O.T. Marsh, Richard Bartlett Taylor
1958, Trace Elements Investigations 602
The Little Cone quadrangle includes an area of about 59 square miles in eastern San Miguel County in southwestern Colorado. It lies within and adjacent to the northeastern boundary of the Colorado Plateau physiographic province. The precipitous front of the San Juan Mountains lies a few miles to the east...
Metamorphosed middle Paleozoic fossils from Central Massachusetts, eastern Vermont, and western New Hampshire
A. J. Boucot, G.J.F. Macdonald, C. Milton, James B. Thompson Jr.
1958, Geological Society of America Bulletin (69) 855-870
Study of thin and polished sections and spectrographic analyses indicate that the brachiopod most recently used to date the Bernardston Formation in Massachusetts probably came from Lower Devonian beds (chlorite zone) in Nova Scotia, and not from Bernardston, Massachusetts. Restudy of the faunule from the calcareous quartzite (garnet zone) of...
Stratigraphy of ocoee series, Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee and North Carolina
P.B. King, J. B. Hadley, R. B. Neuman, W. Hamilton
1958, Geological Society of America Bulletin (69) 947-966
Much of the Great Smoky Mountains, which span the boundary between Tennessee and North Carolina, is formed of the Ocoee series, of later Precambrian age. This is a body of terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks, which has minor intercalations of limestone and dolomite but no volcanic components or known fossils. The...
Geology of Kapingamarangi Atoll, Caroline Islands
Edwin D. McKee
1958, GSA Bulletin (69) 241-278
Kapingamarangi Atoll of the Caroline Islands consists of a peripheral reef, 1000-4000 feet across, surrounding a nearly circular lagoon which is 5 by 6 nautical miles in area and about 240 feet at maximum depth. Thirty-three islands, most of which are less than half a mile in length, are scattered...
Uranium deposits under conglomeratic sandstone of the Morrison Formation, Colorado and Utah
D. A. Phoenix
1958, GSA Bulletin (69) 403-418
In southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah, strata of conglomeratic sandstone are localized at the base of the Brushy Basin Member of the Morrison Formation of Jurassic age. These discrete lithologic units contain sedimentary structures oriented in a prevailing easterly direction. They are believed to cover about one-third of the underlying...
Eastern glossy ibis nesting in southeastern Maryland
R. E. Stewart
1957, The Auk (74) 509-509
On June 25, 1956, Don P. Fankhauser and I investigated a large heron colony of mixed species, on Mills Island in Chincoteague Bay, Worcester County, Maryland. Large numbers of American Egrets (Casmerodius albus), Snowy Egrets (Leucophoyx thula), Louisiana Herons (Hydranassa tricolor), Little Blue Herons (Florida caerulea), and Black-crowned Night Herons...
Preliminary geologic map of the Pumpkin Buttes area, Campbell and Johnson Counties, Wyoming, showing location of uranium occurrences
W. N. Sharp, A. M. White
1957, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 98
The Pumpkin Buttes area comprises about 450 square miles in Campbell and Johnson Counties that includes several prominent buttes known as Pumpkin Buttes.  The area is near the center of the Powder River Basin, a large physiographic unit of prairie and sculptured terrain that occupies approximately 12, 000 square miles...
Bedrock geology at the south-central part of the North Range, Cuyuna district, Minnesota
R. G. Schmidt, C. E. Dutton
1957, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 99
The Cuyuna iron-ore district is in central Minnesota in Morrison, Crow Wing, and Aitkin Counties.  The length of the district is about 68 miles, extending from near Randall in Morrison County ot a point 11 miles east of the community of Hassmann in Aitkin County, and the maximum know width...
Surface water supply of eastern and central North Carolina
Edward B. Rice
1957, Open-File Report 57-96
None of the many factors that influence the economic growth of eastern and central North Carolina plays a more important role than water. Adequate water supply for municipal, rural domestic, industrial, and agricultural uses, is a basic need of any region....
Lead-alpha age determinations of granitic rocks from Alaska
John J. Matzko, H.W. Jaffe, C. L. Waring
1957, Trace Elements Investigations 618
Lead-alpha activity age determinations were made on zircon from seven granitic rocks of central and southeastern Alaska. The results of the age determinations indicate two periods of igneous intrusion, one about 95 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period, and another about 53 million years ago, during the early part...
Geology of the southern Elkhorn Mountains, Jefferson and Broadwater Counties, Montana
M. R. Klepper, R. A. Weeks, E. T. Ruppel
1957, Professional Paper 292
The geology of an area of about 270 square miles in the southern Elkhorn Mountains, west of Townsend in west-central Montana, is described. The mountains in the southern part of the area comprise northward-trending alternating ridges and valleys underlain principally by folded sedimentary rocks. They merge northward into the higher...
