1979, Open-File Report 79-1629
Rotary drilling of two drill holes in the McCallum coal field, Jackson County, Colorado, was completed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in July 1979. The holes are within the area of the short-term lease application. C-27931 held by Wyoming Fuels of Lakewood, Colorado.Drill-hole GNW1 is located in T....
A technique for estimating heights reached by the 100-year flood on unregulated, nontidal streams in North Carolina
R. W. Coble
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-69
A method for estimating the heights reached by floods having a recurrence interval of 100 years is defined for nontidal streams with unregulated flows in North Carolina. The flood heights are the vertical distance between stream stage at median discharge (50 percent duration) and the 100-year flood stage and are...

1979, Open-File Report 79-511
Basic data on the physical and chemical properties of San Francisco Bay are presented here. Samples were collected over the period 1969-1976 at approximately six-week intervals at 36 stations. The stations were located along the axis of the Bay from Calaveras Point in South San Francisco Bay to the town...

Mathematical model for simulating discharges on the Sabine River between Tatum and Ruliff, Texas
Braxtel L. Neely
1979, Open-File Report 79-566
A mathematical model for simulating discharges on the Sabine River between Tatum and Ruliff, TX., was developed to evaluate the effects of release schedules on discharges from the Toledo Bend Reservoir compared to discharges under natural conditions. Using the discharge at Tatum, TX., the rainfall over the basin, and the...
Evaluation of methods for estimating ground-water withdrawals in western Kansas
Claud H. Baker Jr.
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-92
During 1978, methods of estimating ground-water withdrawals in western Kansas were examined and evaluated, using both existing data from the files of the U.S. Geological Survey and newly collected data.Values for annual ground-water withdrawals reported to the Division of Water Resources, Kansas State Board of Agriculture, by water users probably...
Geology, petrology, and chemistry of the Leadville Dolomite: host for uranium at the Pitch Mine, Saguache County, Colorado
J. Thomas Nash
1979, Open-File Report 79-1566
Newly documented uranium ore in the Pitch Mine occurs chiefly in brecciated Mississippian Leadville Dolomite along the Chester reverse fault zone, and to a lesser extent in sandstone, siltstone, and carbonaceous shale of the Pennsylvanian Belden Formation and in Precambrian granitic rocks and schist. Uranium-mineralized zones are generally thicker, more...

Geologic evaluation of major Landsat lineaments in Nevada and their relationship to ore districts
Lawrence C. Rowan, Pamela Heald Wetlaufer
1979, Open-File Report 79-544
Analysis of diverse geologic, geophysical, and geochemical data shows that eight major lineament systems delineated in Landsat images of Nevada are morphological and tonal expressions of substantially broader structural zones. Southern Nevada is dominated by the 175 km-wide northwest-trending Walker Lane, a 150 km-wide zone of east-trending lineament systems consisting...

Evaluation of Landsat multispectral scanner images for mapping altered rocks in the East Tintic Mountains, Utah
Lawrence C. Rowan, Michael J. Abrams
1979, Open-File Report 78-736
The East Tintic Mountains, Utah consist of folded and faulted Paleozoic sedimentary rocks, which are partly covered by Tertiary volcanic rocks. Clastic rocks dominate the lower one-third of the Paleozoic section, whereas carbonate rocks with subordinate amounts of shale and elastic rocks predominate in the remainder. Some of the rocks,...
