Remote detection of geochemical soil anomalies
Frank Cogswell Canney
1970, Open-File Report 70-54
This paper describes a preliminary experiment that was made to compare the spectral reflectance from trees growing in soil over a mineral deposit with reflectance from trees of the same species growing in a nearby unmineralized area. Although the measurements were made on a relatively small number of trees, some...

1970, Open-File Report 70-17
The Glen Ullin quadrangle occupies approximately 51 square miles inwestern Morton County, southwestern North Dakota. Glen Ullin, a small agricultural community on the Northern Pacific Railroad, about 52 miles west of Bismarck, is near the center of the quadrangle (fig. 1).The Glen Ullin quadrangle is one of a group of...
Hydrographic and sedimentation survey of Kajakai Reservoir, Afghanistan
Don C. Perkins, James K. Culbertson
1970, Water Supply Paper 1608-M
A hydrographic and sedimentation survey of Band-e Kajakai (Kajakai Reservoir) on the Darya-ye Hirmand (Helmand River) was carried out during the period September through December 1968. Underwater mapping techniques were used to determine the reservoir capacity as of 1968. Sediment range lines were established and monumented to facilitate future sedimentation...
Geologic map of the Arvada quadrangle, Colorado
Robert M. Lindvall
1970, Open-File Report 70-198
Many of the engineering-geologic problems in the Arvada quadrangle are related to the unconsolidated surficial deposits, which mantle the bedrock to depths of as much as 40 or 50 feet. In this report most of the emphasis is placed on the map distribution of these materials and on a description...
Estimates of the mechanical properties of lunar surface using tracks and secondary impact craters produced by blocks and boulders
H. J. Moore
1970, Open-File Report 70-229
Estimates of bearing capacities of lunar surfaces using tracks and secondary impact craters produced by blocks and boulders shown in photographs taken by Lunar Orbiters II and III are the same order of magnitude as those reported by the Surveyor project, but they are generally less. Static analyses of 48 lunar...

Evaluation of a diamond drilling program at the Samrah Mine near Ad Dawadimi, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Thor H. Kiilsgaard
1970, Open-File Report 70-180
The Samrah mine, near Ad Dawadimi, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has been explored by 18 diamond drill holes, aggregating 3,624.3 meters in length. The holes demonstrate that the Samrah vein zone follows premineral andesitic dikes. Smaller veins split away from the main Samrmh vein zone, The Samrah vein zone is...
