Geologic transcript from Apollo 11 mission
David Schleicher, editor(s)
1970, Open-File Report 70-287
Because complex data that are presented orally and extemporaneously are far easier to study from a written record than from the oral description alone, during the Apollo 11 mission the Lunar Geology Experiment (LGE) team prepared a transcript of all communication between the LM and the Capcom during descent and...
Geology and mineral evaluation of the Wadi Bidah district, southern Hijaz quadrangle, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Robert L. Earhart, Mustafa M. Mawad
1970, Open-File Report 70-116
The Wadi Bidah district in southwest Saudi Arabia contains several ancient mines and mineral-prospects. The Precambian rocks of the district are steeply dipping and highly folded and faulted. They are divided into three major units: (1) older metavolcanic rocks, (2) metasedimentary rocks, and (3) younger metavolcanic rocks. Massive sulfide-type deposits...
Hydrobiological characteristics of Shark River estuary, Everglades National Park, Florida
B. F. McPherson
1970, Open-File Report 71-199
Water quality in the Shark River estuary was strongly influenced by seasonal patterns of rainfall, water level and temperature. During the rainy season (summer and early fall) the salinity in the 20-mile long estuary ranged from that of fresh water to half that of sea water while concentrations of...

A proposed streamflow data program for South Carolina
Jeffrey T. Armbruster
1970, Open-File Report 70-11
An evaluation of the available streamflow data in South Carolina was made to provide guidelines for planning future surface-water data programs. The basic elements in the evaluation procedure were (1) establishment of objectives and goals of the program, (2) examination and analysis of all available data to determine which goals...

Geohydrology of the Cross-Florida Barge Canal area, with special reference to the Ocala vicinity
Glen L. Faulkner
1970, Open-File Report 70-121
The Cross-Florida Barge Canal route commences at Palatka on the St. Johns River, about 75 miles upstream from the Atlantic Ocean, and extends 110 miles southwestward across Peninsular Florida into deep water in the Gulf of Mexico near Yankeetown. The canal will be equipped with five locks, each 600 feet...

The Raft River Basin, Idaho-Utah as of 1966: A reappraisal of the water resources and effects of ground-water development
E.H. Walker, L.C. Dutcher, S.O. Decker, K.L. Dyer
1970, Open-File Report 70-355
The Raft River basin, mostly in south-central Idaho and partly in Utah, is a drainage basin of approximately 1,510 square miles. Much arable land in the basin lacks water for irrigation, and the potentially irrigable acreage far exceeds the amount that could be irrigated with the 140,000 acre-feet estimated annual...
Hydraulic tests in hole UA-1 and water inflow into an underground chamber, Amchitka Island, Alaska
Wilbur C. Ballance
1970, Open-File Report 70-16
Hole UA-1 was center punched (a small-diameter exploratory hole drilled ahead of the large-diameter emplacement hole) from 1,524.0 to 1,981.2 meters (5,000 to 6,500 feet) and hydraulically tested to determine an ideal location for mining a chamber. Fifteen zones were tested; minor amounts of water bypassed the packers during five...

Flood of August 1969 in Virginia
J.D. Camp, E.M. Miller
1970, Open-File Report 70-51
Hurricane Camille became a tropical depression and soaked central Virginia with up to 28 inches of rain during the night of August 19th and morning of the 20th. The rains, flash floods, and rain-induced landslides accompanying the storm's passage have been called the worst natural disaster ever to strike Virginia.Discharge...

Two centers of gold mineralization in the Clearwater Mountains have been identified during a recent geochemical sampling program in the Healy A-1, B-1 quadrangles, Alaska. Both the Timberline Creek center and the Black Creek center are located near the same E-W trending fault system.Sites of structural weakness along the zone...

During the period November 18, 1963 to December 3, 1963 the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico performed a gravity survey of the Tertiary sedimentary basin which is located along the south coast of Puerto Rico in the vicinity of Ponce. The project was initiated...
Petrology of the Plutonic Rocks of west-central Alaska
Thomas P. Miller
1970, Open-File Report 71-210
A series of plutons in west-central Alaska defines the Hogatza plutonic belt which extends for about 200 miles in an east-west direction from the northeastern Seward Peninsula to the Koyukuk River. The plutonic rocks have an aggregate area of about 1,200 square miles and their composition, distribution, and possible petrogenesis...
