Strata-bound, silver-bearing iron, lead, and zinc sulfide deposits in Silurian and Ordovician rocks of allochthonous terranes, Nevada and northern Mexico
Keith Brindley Ketner
1983, Open-File Report 83-792
Allochthonous terranes in northern Nevada contain strata-bound sulfide deposits at two horizons in Silurian and Ordovician siliceous sedimentary rocks. The most intensively mineralized horizon and most extensive deposit is at the base of the Silurian. Another less extensive deposit is in the lower Middle Ordovician. Spectrographic analyses of gossan from...

An assessment of the hydrologic information required for the U.S. Bureau of Land Management-U.S. Geological Survey coal-hydrology program in the West
Richard A. Herbert
1983, Open-File Report 82-1012
In 1974, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management began the Energy Minerals Rehabilitation Inventory and Analysis (EMRIA) Program, now known as the Coal Hydrologic Investigations Program, to collect detailed information on water and other resources of proposed coal-lease areas. The U.S. Geological Survey has been collecting water-resource information for the...
Aeromagnetic map of Yucca Mountain and surrounding regions, southwest Nevada
Martin Francis Kane, Robert E. Bracken
1983, Open-File Report 83-616
Magnetic anomalies over Yucca Mountain and surrounding areas are largely caused by variations in magnetic properties and shapes, including structural offsets, of the extensive volcanic units that underlie the region. In a few places the anomalies are caused by intrusions. Correlation between magnetic properties measured from rock samples and those...

Reconnaissance study of stream sedimentation, southern Guam
P.J. Shade
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4212
This study uses limited available data to estimate sediment yields for three basins in southern Guam. The flow-duration sediment-rating curve method, reservoir survey data, and Pacific southwest Inter-Agency Committee (PSIAC) formula were used. Daily suspended-sediment samples were collected at USGS gaging stations on the Ylig and Ugum Rivers for one...
