1985, Open-File Report 85-8
Geochemical reconnaissance for rare metals in plutons of albite-muscovite granite and quartz monzonite in the vicinity of Jabal Lababa disclosed positive geochemical anomalies for beryllium, tantalum, thorium, lanthanum, niobium, tin, yttrium, and zirconium. The low anomalous values for the rare metals in rocks and the short mechanical dispersion trains, seldom...
Stratigraphy and characteristic mollusks of the Pamunkey Group (Lower Tertiary) and the Old Church Formation of the Chesapeake Group— Virginia coastal plain
Lauck W. Ward
1985, Professional Paper 1346
Along the Pamunkey River and its tributaries can be found a very complete, well-preserved, Tertiary stratigraphic record that reflects the sea-level changes as well as the local tectonic history of the central Virginia Coastal Plain. Using this record, I have described the lower Tertiary units and proposed a sequential model...

1985, Professional Paper 1054-C
Y-3, a U.S. Geological Survey research diamond-drill hole in Lower Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, reached a depth of 156.7 m. The recovered drill core consists of 42.2 m of surficial (mostly glacial) sediments and two rhyolite flows (Nez Perce Creek flow and an older, unnamed rhyolite flow) of...
Hydrogeologic data from a test well in east-central Duval County, Florida
D.P. Brown, R.A. Johnson, R.A. Broxton
1985, Open-File Report 84-802
A 2,112-foot test well was drilled in east-central Duval County, Florida, to obtain geologic, hydrologic, and water chemistry data. Drill cuttings and water samples were collected, and water-level measurements and lithologic and geophysical logs were made. Deposits to a depth of 575 feet consist of sand, clayey sand, phosphatic sandy...

Hydrologic reconnaissance of the Chilkat River basin, southeast Alaska, with special reference to the bald eagle critical habitat at the Tsirku River alluvial fan
Edward F. Bugliosi
1985, Open-File Report 84-618
The Chilkat River basin in southeast Alaska is characterized by rugged, highly dissected mountains with steep-gradient streams, braided rivers in broad alluvium-filled valleys, and numerous glaciers. A wide seasonal range in temperature and strong orographic effects cause variations in the amount and distribution of precipitation, and thus in the resulting...

1985, Open-File Report 85-5
Panned-concentrate samples from wadi sediments were collected over terranes of Precambrian age intrusive, volcanic, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks, within the Jabal Habashi quadrangle, sheet 26F, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Multivariate analysis of the chemical data indicates that a significant base-metal association occurs in three areas within the quadrangle. An association...
