Origin and significance of natural gases of Montana
Dudley D. Rice
1975, Open-File Report 75-188
About two years ago, I was assigned to a project to evaluate the hydrocarbon potential of the Cretaceous system of the northern Rocky Mountains; namely, in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota. I had no problem identifying potential traps; both structural and stratigraphic, but recognized the fact that most of...

Geochemical soil studies in the Cotter Basin area, Lewis and Clark County, Montana
D. J. Grimes, Robert L. Earhart
1975, Open-File Report 75-72
Geochemical sampling in an area of abnormal vegetation in the Cotter basin area, Lewis and Clark County, Montana, shows anomalously high concentrations of Cu, Pb, Ag, Zn, and Au in the soil. The singular presence of a particular plant species growing in the highly anomalous zone merits further investigation for...
Results of core drilling for coal at Lakhra Anticline, Pakistan, from December 1961 to May 1965
Robert Lee Harbour, M.A. Ghani
1975, Open-File Report 75-361
High-quality lignite has been mined in small quantity from rocks of early Tertiary age in the Lakhra anticline area for at least 20 years, but because coal outcrops are poor or nonexistent, the extent of the field was not known. However, between 1953 and 1958, five oil test holes penetrated...

A general outline of the water resources of the Toppenish Creek basin, Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington
Dean O. Gregg, Leslie Bostwick Laird
1975, Open-File Report 75-19
Increasing demands for water supplies, plans for irrigating new lands, proposals to divert water from the Yakima River by users downstream from the reservation, and ground-water problems have made an accounting of the overall availability of water very important to water management on the reservation. This report, which broadly outlines...
Flow characteristics of the Lower Wisconsin River
J. H. Green
1975, Open-File Report 75-582
The flow of water throughout the year and the stream gradient are necessary considerations in evaluating the recreational potential of the lower Wisconsin River. This flow is regulated in part by the dam at Prairie du Sac and influenced considerably by the 47 storage reservoirs and power dams above Lake...

1975, Open-File Report 75-149
Alaska, comprising 3.6 X 106 sq km (about 28 percent) of the land, shelf, and upper continental slope of the United States, has been estimated by the U.S. Geological Survey (1974) to contain about 25 percent of the Nation's petroleum resources. Some 11 billion barrels of petroleum liquids and 31...
A water-quality assessment of the Burnham Creek Watershed, Polk County, Minnesota
M.R. Have
1975, Open-File Report 75-647
A water-quality assessment of the Burnham Creek watershed, Polk County, Minn., was made in May 1975. Surface waters were calcium magnesium bicarbonate types with 0.11 mg/liter or less of nitrite plus nitrate nitrogen and 0.10 mg/liter or less of total phosphorous. Fecal coliform bacteria concentrations were between 3 and 720...
Some limnological aspects of 20 selected lakes in Eagan and Apple Valley, Minnesota

1975, Open-File Report 75-528
Selected physical, chemical, and biological parameters were determined to assess the quality of 20 lakes in the cities of Eagan and Apple Valley, Minn. All the lakes are eutrophic except Holland and Fish Lakes, which are mesotrophic. Some lakes (including Fish Lake) have storm sewer inlets but are not discernibly...

Titanium deposits in alkalic igneous rocks
Norman Herz
1975, Open-File Report 75-35
Many types of alkalic rocks are enriched in Ti02 relative to the average for the crust. Silicate minerals in these rocks may have high Ti02 contents, but the oxides ilmenite, rutile, brookite, and perovskite are also characteristic primary phases. These tend to be higher in niobium than are the same...

Evaluation and proposed study of potential ground-water supplies, Gallup area, New Mexico
William L. Hiss
1975, Open-File Report 75-522
The ground-water potential of 5 areas in central-western New Mexico within 85 miles (135 km) of Gallup, N. Mex. was evaluated by reviewing the published literature, inspecting aerial and space photographs, and interviewing ranchers and personnel employed by well-drilling and mineral-exploration companies by telephone. The San Andres Limestone and underlying...
