Definitions of components of the Master Water Data Index maintained by the National Water Data Exchange
Robert A. Perry, Charles J. Lewis
1978, Open-File Report 78-183
The Master Water Data Index (MWDI) is a computerized data base developed and maintained by the National Water Data Exchange (NAWDEX). The MWDI contains information about water-data collection sites. This information includes: the identification of sites for which water data are available, the location of these sites, the type of...
Geohydrologic data from twenty-four test holes drilled in the Piceance Basin, Rio Blanco County, Colorado, 1975-76
Frank A. Welder, George J. Saulnier
1978, Open-File Report 78-734
Twenty-four test holes were drilled in the Piceance basin, northwestern Colorado, to obtain geohydrologic data from the Uinta and Green River Formations of Eocene age. Depths of test holes ranged from 640 to 2,800 feet. The maximum quantity of water discharged during the air drilling of individual test holes ranged...
A preliminary report on the geology of the Dennison-Bunn uranium claim, Sandoval County, New Mexico
Jennie L. Ridgley
1978, Open-File Report 79-1510
Uranium at the Dennison-Bunn claim, south of Cuba, N. Mex., along the east margin of the San Juan Basin, occurs in unoxidized gray, fluvial channel sandstone of the Westwater Canyon Member of the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation. The uranium-bearing sandstone is bounded on the north and south by a variable...

Chemical and mineralogical evaluation of soils, Hanging Woman Creek EMRIA site, Big Horn County, Montana
Ronald R. Tidball
1978, Open-File Report 78-346
The purpose of this study is to provide chemical and mineralogical data on the soil resource at the Hanging Woman Creek Energy Mineral Rehabilitation Inventory and Analysis (EMRIA) site. These data will contribute to the potential-reclamation evaluation in the event that the area is disturbed by strip mining for the...

Contact-metasomatic magnetite deposit, Medfra Quadrangle, Alaska
M.L. Throckmorton, William Wallace Patton
1978, Open-File Report 78-26
A small contact-metasomatic magnetite deposit was discovered in the Medfra quadrangle, Alaska, in 1976. It occurs at the contact between a Cretaceous or early Tertiary quartz monzonite stock and Paleozoic limestone and dolomite. The ore is a magnetite-clinohumite-hematite rock that contains up to 60 volume percent magnetite and 76 weight...

Chemical quality of water in abandoned zinc mines in northeastern Oklahoma and southeastern Kansas
Stephen J. Playton, Robert Ellis Davis, Roger G. McClaflin
1978, Open-File Report 78-294
Onsite measurements of pH, specific conductance, and water temperature show that water temperatures in seven mine shafts in northeastern Oklahoma and southeastern Kansas is stratified. With increasing sampling depth, specific conductance and water temperature tend to increase, and pH tends to decrease. Concentrations of dissolved solids and chemical constituents in mine-shaft water,...
